Try the "tense and relax" method.

Seriously though looking at a screen will keep you up usually

I got F.lux, it limits the blue light from your screen, making it easier to fall asleep

tense your body as hard as you can and release, start at your feet and work your way up. also taking deep breaths helps

The best answer is the one you least expect. If you want to fall asleep quickly, then don't sleep. Just skip sleeping tonight and I guarantee that tomorrow night you will fall asleep faster than you ever have before. Nothing quite makes you sleepy like sleep deprivation.

I'm here in bed, trying to fall asleep but I can't. How could I fall asleep quickly without taking pills? Any methods?

Try ASMR sleeping Audio. Helps me to sleep when my Tinitus is fucking me up... :/

Read book, put away everything that can distract you. Do boring stuff, drink warm stuff (milk, tea, etc.).

I don't think you will...I don't think I will...unless you got your tinnitus from an accident but if you were born with it like me, it's permanent
