Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
I usually just hug a cold pillow or something, as it helps me relax. I've never had sleeping problems, so I can't really help you there lol. I'll try to get a friend to post here, he's isomaniac too, maybe he could help in some way.
