Is it possible you're taking something, or there's something in your lifestyle that may account for not sleeping? Some medications that put most people to sleep have been known to keep small numbers of folks awake. Too much caffeine, food additives...
So you might try going through all your meds, and thoroughly check side effects (online) for any kind of sleep disturbances. Also labels/ingredients of foods, especially prepared foods.

Just saw your other post about the burning pain of PN keeping you up. That's different. R-Lipoic Acid knocked out my burning pain (which was keeping me up and in pain) very quickly. Some people take it in combination with Acetyl L-Carnitine and/or pantothenic acid (B5) for additional efficacy.
There are other sugestions in the
PN Tips, Resources, Supplements & Other Treatments forum.
