There’re plenty of ways to help you fast asleep faster. While some are just short-term solutions, others are more long-term which takes a change of lifestyle and adopting a healthy one.  You can read a book but not so interesting that you stay up more to keep reading it. You can try some breathing exercises to get rid of your stress and calm down your nerves. Maybe you can drink something warm to take a brief warm shower to relax. These are a couple of short-term solutions.
