I find banging my missus who is 15 years younger than me every night sends me straight out after I unload. So maybe get a younger model although understandably most cant pull it off like me.

As Stubbo said, going to bed with the intention to get to sleep will totally fail.
Get up early, work hard, do exercise, fill your day, and go to bed when your tired. But I I always put the TV on. Have a flick and settle on something easy. I'm soon nodding off. I get to sleep in seconds.
My problem is the other end. As soon as I wake up my mind is zipping. So invevitably I get up to just to get on with stuff. So I rarely lay in even at weekends.
If your busy write it all down before bed to get it out your mind.
Or if all else fails, take Kalms. Absolute nailed on to get you to sleep.

Lots of great suggestions here, I'll work through them thank you, didn't realise so many people in the same boat.
Drinks a funny one, I think it zonks you out quicker but the quality of sleep is worse

Have half a bottle or a full bottle of red wine and then head to bed about 1am, your head will hit the pillow and you’ll be out in seconds

Stick a headphone in and listen to a podcast you want to listen to. Guarantee you'll fall asleep and not remember any of it in the morning.

I wish I knew the trick . I cannot sleep beyond 4 in the morning. And even then I'm listening to podcasts all night. All in all I sleep for about 3 hours a night. I can't even blame it on the hammers lLOL .

Swap jobs with me, after driving rock n roll trucks for the past 15 years I can fall asleep on a clothes line.
The problem is staying asleep much over 4/5 hours, and trying not to nod off early afternoon.

When I was working (as opposed to being benefit poncing scum) I used to find that jotting down a list of everything I'd planned to do that day, but didn't, helped; it was as if my mind was determined to make sure I'd not forget them but once they were written down ready for the morning, I had nothing to remember, so dropped of fairly quickly.

Side - Yea, but it's not to help me sleep you daft cunt, as I said it's 'coz I reside in a hot country so I need to take one. Showering before going to bed is more likely to keep you awake if anything. I might start reading your posts in bed, like Nutsin does :-)

No problem sleeping when watching West Ham, it’s usually so bloody boring that I drop off within 2 minutes of the kickoff.

I found lighting quite helpful - dim the lights gradually, starting a few hours before you go to bed.
Apparently this tricks the human brain into thinking it's sunset and all sorts of chemicals are released into the bloodstream to aid going to sleap.
Obviously if you're living in a squat in an abandoned lock-up, falling asleep surrounded by a few burning candles could be an issue, so the preferred solution in that case is banging an under-aged Cambodian raspberry, then walking manfully away without paying her.

Things that have worked for me:
1. Make a list of stuff just before bed that's on the mind.
2. Yoga Nidra (can find on Spotify or YouTube) done just before going up to bed...awesome for deep relaxation.
3. A fiction-based audiobook on that you're interested in, set to play for 30mins when going to bed.
4. If that doesn't work, stop trying to sleep and put said audiobook on with the deliberate intention of listening for 2 hours.
The enemy of falling asleep is being aware of your own desire to be asleep. You can't 'make' it happen...just have to create the conditions where it does happen....being relaxed and distracted is the way to do that.
Oh and make sure the bedroom is very dark, and not hot. A shower just before bed is a good thing too.

Pukka (brand) night time blissful rest teabags doubled up make it easier for me to nut out.
Definitely better sleep not boozing.
