Has anyone been able to conquer insomnia?

Hello everyone, I am new to the forum and this is my first post!I have been dealing with Lyme disease for three years now and the one symptom that is affecting me the most is insomnia. I have had it since day one and it is more important now that I get this resolved than before. I am a freshman in college going for pre-medicine and trying to deal with all of my symptoms and my coursework while getting only a couple hours of sleep a night is becoming pretty difficult. I have tried taking over-the-counter sleep aids, valerian root, melatonin, calms forte, Benadryl, Allegra, magnesium supplements, working out frequently, Epsom salts and many other things, but nothing has worked. I have also completely cut caffeine and many sugars out of my diet. I have gone to many doctors about this, and none of them are of any help. Does anyone here have any suggestions on what I should do next?

I also tested positive for the disease on both the ELISA and western blot test whenever I first contracted it and all of my symptoms relapsed a few days after I finished my first treatment and my infectious disease specialist said that it was impossible that I was feeling ill because of the disease and refused to treat me. They said anxiety was causing all of my symptoms, which is impossible. Most of my symptoms remained constant from that period of time and many of them have progressed. I was finally put on another round of antibiotics in May and that was the first time in 3 years that I felt normal and felt somewhat like the person I was before I contracted the disease. After the second round of antibiotics, all of my symptoms came back once again. The second round of antibiotics wasn't a full length treatment either, my physician just wanted to see if I had significant symptom improvement after being put on an the medication for three weeks. I have not been to an LLMD, mainly due to the fact I didn't even know that they existed, but plan on going to one once I have a break in all of my class work.

I agree with Girlie - very important to treat the Lyme and then take supplements for sleep. I found that any kind of drug to help me sleep just wouldn't work. I take Ashwagandha morning and early afternoon, and then at bedtime L-theanine 200 mg, GABA 750 mg, 5-HTP 100 mg, magnesium 500 mg and melatonin 10 mg. 9 nights out of 10 I'll get a decent sleep out of this. If I'm anxious about anything or there's a full moon approaching - there is no sleep to be had. Sleep is so important. No sleep means increased pain for me so I'm constantly looking for the magic combo to grant me sleep.

Hope some of this can be of use to you.
