Insomnia. What seems to help?

I started about 40 yrs. ago with unison, increasing to 2-3 per night, finally I mentioned my not sleeping to a doctor [early 90's?] she said I had a busy mind, true, I would be sleepy, head on pillow, eyes and brain wide awake, running through my brain all my jobs, working out solutions, then redoing that again, She gave me a prescription, it worked, don't remember what it was but she did not tell me it was addicting. I then changed doctors and tried to get off them he had me reducing, didn't work, he then kept trying other drugs, nothing worked, there was about 4 or 5 of these including the prescription Melatonin, melatonin has never worked for me, the last one was trazodone, that just made me stumble around and did nothing for sleeping, then he gave me clonazepam, it worked, he did not tell me how bad this drug was nor that it was just as mind addicting as the one I was trying to get off of. I started with 1mg., then upped to 2mg, now up to 3mg. I try to stay at 2 but that does not always work, even with 3 mg. [and I know I can never go higher] I still have 2-3 nights a week with no sleep. I can do deep breathing, etc., still awake. I am off my computer and tv at least a hour before going to bed, I try to keep a routine, doesn't help. If I am really physically tired I will start to go to sleep without taking anything and then wide awake, 'where's my pill?' I just ordered a bottle of RV Insomnia Relief after reading and researching this, I would try a CBD but if you don't have the TSH I read it won't work for sleeping. I am at my wits end. I can't function with no sleep for 4-5 nights trying to kick an addiction. I am so tired of all this. I do not have anxiety or depression issues so I don't know why I was given the drugs I was.

@dadt I have that more then I like However I have found turned ng of electronics before bedtime listening to relaxing music drinking warm milk or sleepytime tea helps I got away from prescription drugs as they are addictive

I do turn them off, don't drink milk, sleepytime tea does nothing, I would love to get away from the drugs but nothing seems to work

@dadt I also do meditation before I turn on there's a app on turning of your chatter that I found I think it was on You tube or on the Tapping app can't remember where I found it then where I life on Ca there on t.v.relaxong music I listen to .Does this help any

no, very distracting, so are sound waves

@datd2 I found another tea that helps me it's Chamomile Lavender tea does help more then sleepytime .Ever try it?

@datd2 Yes it works About 30-60 min I'm out Hope it will work for you
