How do you beat insomnia without medication?

I couldn’t fall asleep until 6 am again. I took my usual melatonin but it didn’t do anything. I can take more but that always makes me oversleep. Is there anything not too powerful that can help? Im so exhausted but can never sleep at a normal time.

Melatonin does nothing for me. Somewhere I read 3 & 5mg was the usual dose with 10 being the highest but some taking 10 or more got negative affects and found it more difficult to sleep. Benadryl affects some people and is used in some sleep aids if you want to try that.
You could always go the route of over paying in my opinion and try Relaxium.
