You just need to fool yourself into going to sleep according to whatever schedule you determine appropriate. It helps if you move your sleep schedule around frequently (I am aware this is a contrarian point of view). I often go to sleep at 10pm and 3am in the same week, and at several other times in between. Use an alarm clock and put it in a place that requires you to get out of bed to turn it off. Get plenty of exercise if you know you'll need to get to sleep considerably earlier that night than you did the night before. Exercise your mind too. Relax for the hour or two before your scheduled bedtime. Pretty much everything else is hit and miss. To wit:
Caffeine doesn't usually work on me. Often times it can put me to sleep, other times it doesn't. I don't know why. Could be I've had too much of it.
Masturbation usually gets my heart running fast for a while, and when that happens I usually can't stop thinking for an hour or two afterwards.
