I had terrible insomnia as a late teen/early 20's guy.

What "fixed" it for me was rock climbing (indoor sports walls). It's both physically and mentally challenging. When you are climbing you are focused on the climb and noting else. The exercise helps tire you out and gives you a boost in endorphins when you a done.

I'm still a very light sleeper 20 years later; but I rarely get less than 5 hours a night these days.

I still climb once a week.

The root cause of my insomnia was rumination; I literally couldn't stop thinking about all the stuff happening. Rock climbing forced my mind to focus on something productive the exercise helped tire my body out so that it was ready for sleep. Getting both body and mind ready for sleep helped so much.

This is my experience; I hope it can give you some help.

So I got to the ruminations stage of the RCA too but now I have physic-pills that stop the ruminations and I still can't sleep*

It might be physiological at this point for me.

I'm ok with not being understood I don't want to explain the details.
