You could go the chemically induced sleep route, any otc sleep aid/benadryl (they have the same active ingredient), but that's not actually restful for some.
I suggest melatonin if you can find it in amounts of less than 3mg/tablet (1mg/tablet or less is ideal), but it doesn't work for everyone and the tablets have vitamin B6 in them so your dreams may be extremely vivid and totally insane. Since melatonin is what your brain produces when it needs sleep anyway, it acts by just kick-starting your melatonin production, which should help you fall asleep. (Brain sees melatonin, says "Hey, I should make some of that!", you get sleepy.) I have some around at all times, due to my messed up sleep cycle. I wouldn't use it for more than about 4 days in a row, though. Your brain may get used to it just showing up and not produce its own, aggravating any sleeping issues. Here, have a wiki page on it. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melatonin#Circadian_rhythm_disorders
