Stop all caffeine. Get off the screen a few hours before you wanna sleep.

@Peaceful May not fix but will certainly aide. People sometimes get angry enough, searching for a larger issue, they forget what they can do help them even if it doesn't cure.

@SW-User caffeine destroys the adrenals. Adrenals modulate sleep. Blue screen activates parts of the brain that keeps us up. This is where I would start and see what happens.

@Peaceful If only the mind and body worked in unison. I do try and follow some of that advice myself, working shift work, and can say it helps.
