It might also just be metabolic, I was over exercising, under eating and not getting enough carbs which resulted in several nutritional deficiencies after 6 years etc (thought I was being healthy, felt great in the initial years) unknowingly I was putting my body in a catabolic state which will cause the body to stay awake and alert, as it is meant to. Think about what you are doing and what messages you are sending to your central nervous system via the way you eat exercise and live...you might be putting your body in survival mode and its simply doing what its meant to be doing. I cut back and changed the way I exercise opting for more anabolic promoting activities with ample recovery time, ate more frequent balanced meals and also allowed myself to take naps. It has taken a long time for my body to balance out and recover, I now don't even need to bother with or think about sleep hygiene, I get tired and sleep. I hope this helps someone in a similar predicament, the worst part is not knowing what is happening and how to recover.
Please help me I am used to sleeping pills tried to get them off for three days ended up in hospital out of no sleep for three how to get rid of this habit I have been taking them for ten years.

Since the body's language is neurotransmitters and hormones be sure the doctor looks at all of that! I did not want to go the route of sleeping pills because I didn't want to have to get "off" of them! Balanced calcium, magnesium, and Vitamin D3 which is vital. Vitamin D3 is a hormone as well as a vitamin. My circadian rhythm was totally off having worked in IT for years in dungeon operation centers with no natural light! Keep at it! You will get better!
