How to deal with the stress of a car accident?

I recently totaled my car on a back road and walked away with little more than whiplash. The first night I slept fine, but tonight is the second night and it is almost 4 in the morning and I cannot even get a hint of sleep. I have no way of getting a sleep aid and I don't prefer to take them. I'm only 18 years old so alcohol is not available either. Does anyone have a suggestion on how I can get some sleep? Thanks!

How long can cocaine effect you for? Can some people get a bad downer from cocaine use?

I tried cocaine for the first time 2 days ago. I havent slept since but yet i feel exhausted. I took a stupid amount of alcohol along with the coke which is probably causing me more problems. I have very little appetite although I have forced down a couple of small meals. Is this a normal reaction or could I just be being paranoid? I didnt take all that much. How long is it normal to feel rough for?

How do I get over wanting a cigarette?

I quit smoking 9 days ago. It was actually pretty easy at the time because I had bronchitis and couldn't smoke anyway. But just today, I started getting the urge really intensely. I just really want one! How do I stop this craving? Another thing, I haven't hung out with any of my friends or had any alcohol since I quit. I'm really concerned about that because I always crave cigarettes when I have a drink with friends. How can I get over that? Any advice will be helpful.

How long after a concussion can I consume alcohol without any risks?

On the 14th I had a bike accident and suffered a concussion of a Level 2, because I do not recall losing consciousness. From the 14th I've come a long way in terms of recovery and I'm losing my post-concussion symptoms in a timely manner. I was wondering how long after a concussion like this, would it be safe to drink alcohol.
