I was in the same boat with the racing mind at bedtime preventing me from getting much if any sleep. I have been a pretty aggressive exerciser but that only improved things part way. I finally got a prescription for a 50mg dose of Seroquel (https://www.drugs.com/seroquel.html https://www.drugs.com/seroquel.html) which i was told is an anti psychotic but at the 'low' dose of 50mg i would only get the 'side effect' of being drowsy. It was a lifesaver (literally). At least for me it got me off the no sleep hamster wheel which made just getting through every day such a challenge because i was tired and groggy. Everything felt very difficult to deal with. I got immediate benefit from taking the generic version of this med nightly. Now not being able to fall asleep or waking up in the middle of the night and not getting back to sleep are anomalies instead of normal. I also try to keep a consistent sleep/wake up time so my body is trained to expect these things to happen at a specific time. Obviously YMMV but for me this was a spring board to a new chapter in my life. I'm not super creative so i just called it 'Chapter 2'.
