How can a child with ADHD avoid falling asleep when reading doing homework or other 'boring' tasks?
what i have found to work for me is music. a headphone set doesn't offer the visual distraction and keeps a separate part of the mind active. it also gives you something enjoyable to do with the not-so-enjoyable. i only say this because it worked for me. i was diagnosed with ADHD as a kid and believe myself to still suffer the effects now.

Reading may be boring because whatever you are reading does not intrigue or interest you. Reading itself isn't boring - it's the content of the text.

What to do when can't fall asleep?
Don't worry about falling asleep when you can't fall asleep. Just keep calm. You can try some warm milk. Keep the lights low to signal to your brain that it's time for sleep. You can try reading a little, but don't read anything too stimulating. Some people fall asleep to a tv, but that only works if the show you're watching is boring to you, not too stimulating. I've heard that using the computer isn't great for falling asleep due to the light and mental activity. I think the best advice is to stop worrying, just lie there and read or watch tv in a low light until you get sleepy and then close your eyes and before you know it you'll be waking up in the morning.

How do you make homework less boring?
What I do is I made a sheet that says "sign this if you are angry at your homework" whenever I get stuck on a problem or the homework is way to boring, I sign the sheet. Every time i sign it it makes me smile as I see the hundreds of signatures i have written on the sheet. This doesn't do anything to make it less boring, but it's just something to brighten you up when ur homework is overwhelming u., Of course this is for me, it may not work for you. But it's a start!

What would be a creative way to cure insomnia?
Usually after 20-30 minutes if I can't fall asleep I get up and in low light (as low as possible without straining your eyes) I read something REALLY boring, like my cell phone manual, after a few minutes of reading I go lay down again and I usually fall asleep.
