The typical webmaster sleeping problems. Any way to resolve them?

I go to bed most days at 7-8am (about the same time most wake up). It's a continual, endless cycle. Meanwhile somedays, I'd like to get to enjoy a good part of the morning/early afternoon. But cannot seem to break out of this routine. And if I do, it's only for one day out of the week to do a bank run. I've tried the following to help assist in my insomnia treatment:

Quote:
  • Tylenol PM - The absolute worst sleeping agent in the world. Causes restlessness, uneasyness, tossing and turning, boredom, and a whole array of problems. You're better off drinking a red bull to put you to sleep.
  • Unisom - Can work, if and only if, you're not use to taking other over the counter sleeping pills.
  • Ron Jeremy Penis pill TV infomercials - Puts me to sleep immediately, but it's hard to find the right channel/right time on most nights.
  • Nyquil Geltab - The winner, we've it right here. Great product. You avoid the shitty taste of nyquil, and it passes you the fuck out. Problem? It's habit forming, and you soon build a tolerance. What once put me to sleep (two geltabs), now takes six. Thus, I am no longer taking them.
  • Valium (under the counter) - Weakest shit ever, it's like taking candy. I've done two on several occasions, to no avail whatsoever. Finally, I ignored my fear of overdosing, and took seven valiums at one time. The outcome? I did fall asleep...four and a half hours later.
  • Counting Sheep - Great product, but too expensive.
Thus my question is, what over (or under) the counter drug do you use to try and regain the ordinary wake up at 8am, sleep at 11pm routine?

Thanks.
