Work hard during the day and get tired. At night turn off the lights and cut out the noise. Lay down.

Have you tried melatonin? It’s a natural hormone that triggers sleep. Some people don’t produce enough of it so need to take extra.

You really need to get a medical workup and find out WHY you can't sleep. Not all physical exams will tell you that, but they will be a start.  Anxiety and depression can cause sleeplessness. So can using any sort of "screen" (i.e., cellphone, computer, tablet, television) within an hour of going to bed. The blue light from the screens keeps your brain active. So can eating some foods right before bed--or NOT eating some foods. The room temperature makes a difference. There are so many reasons for sleeplessness they can't all be detailed here. Talk to your doctor. Tell him or her all your habits. Keep a log of what you eat during the day. Limit your phone use within an hour of trying to go to bed. Lower your bedroom temperature. 


Also-at your age, sleeplessness is NOT UNCOMMON. If you are female, it could be a sign of menopause or peri-menopause. You may be experiencing hormonal changes that make a difference in your sleep schedule. All these things can contribute to insomnia. There is no one cause, in 99% of cases. 


See your doctor. Get a physical and find out if there are underlying causes.

Take a deep breath, stay calm and don't overthink about anything when you go for sleep.

I would suggest you see a doctor. But benedryl is non habit forming and very safe. I would suggest that but I don’t know what medications you’re on not do I know what diseases or conditions you have and whether it may interact (extremely rare for benedryl to interact with other drugs and if it does it’s just more drowsyness generally).

binaural beats with sleep tones always work for me.  Used headphones or ear buds.
