Unable to sleep

Signs and symptoms
1

Hello,

As the title says, I am havimg issues falling asleep. Im a high school student and we just got done with midterms right before a break. But during the entire 2 weeks we were off for break it takes me 1-2 hours to fall asleep and if I wake up I cannot fall back asleep. 

I am at school from 7:30 to 3:30 and right after I’ll workout for 1-2 hours then go home and work on homework. Once I finish homework I’ll play video games until 10 where I’ll leave the computer to let my brain rest before I try to sleep.

I do not take any medication, never drink soda or any caffeinated drinks, I have s pretty low sugar intake, I usually skip breakfast but I still eat around 3500 calories a day (I have a fast motabolism, working out burns most of the extra calories)

I used to sleep from 11pm to 6am but not its gone up to 1am and if I wake up I cannot fall back asleep.

I was wondering what might be going on and what could I do to solve it?

Thanks

Sorry, I just re-read that and saw all the typos!

I would cut out the activity just before bedtime so that the brain has a chance to shutdown for the night. This is because over stimulation of the brain in activities before sleeping is disadvantageous and prone to insomnia.

I usually stop an hour before I sleep, should I increase that?

5

maybe take a bath or  shower to relax yourself during the last hour or meditate. I would experiment and see what works best for you.
