I can't sleep at night, for quite some tme now. Somehow i always end up hanging around the computer until early in the morning, and when i turn it off i still roll around sometimes for what feels like hours. What can i do to get a normal sleeping rhythm and fall asleep quickly?

I'd try this: Decide when you want to get off the computer (ideally an hour or 2 before bed). Set your computer to do backups or updates or some other maintenance task that's going to slow your computer way the fuck down. You'll get annoyed with the slowness, and it'll be easier to get off the computer and go to bed.
As for falling asleep quickly, it helps to have a nighttime routine. Getting off the computer can be the first part of the routine. Then do something quiet and relaxing. Honestly when I was stressed out with work and shit, I picked up something I felt I "should" read but that was sloggy, like philosophy or something, and read that in bed. I'd be out like a light after like 5 pages. If all else fails, have *one* drink before bed to relax you. Any more than that and you'll be likely to wake back up as soon as you're sober.
Some people just do not fall asleep quickly no matter what. It might be genetic.
