Comment on Ask to HN: How do you deal with changing your sleeping habits?

Comments

Melatonin. It's wonderful stuff - non-habit forming, available over the counter, and when combined with a good sleeping routine (environment, consistency of timing) can really help you smooth out a sleep pattern in to something more consistent or aide you in a change like this - though the idea is once you got consistent in the routine that you'd no longer need the melatonin.

It's not a cure all wonder drug however, and will really only assist in inducing the drowsiness that parleys in to sleep, just to manage expectations a bit - but it really is highly effective when combined with solid routine / environment.
