Hi, sleep issues can be very distressful! Although you need to find out the underlying issues behind it. Kindly consult a psychologist for the same. Also, if this has been going on for over a week, then pls consider consulting a psychiatrist for medication. Once, you are able to get some proper sleep with medication, then you need to develop a sleep schedule.
Health Tips
Avoid sleeping during day time and also don’t have caffeine intake post noon.

Hi... Falling asleep becomes difficult when the mind is overactive or preoccupied with multiple thoughts and emotions. Causes may be multiple but usually there are 2-3 main line of thoughts that keep someone awake at night.
Poor routine which includes unhealthy diet, lack of exercise/movement, high screentime, digital addiction, etc., can be the lifestyle related factors.
You need to identify and address the exact issue to help you get back your good night sleep.
Sleeping pills are not a great option but a last resort. Remember, no outside substance is without a side effect. Natural methods may take more time & effort but don't have any side effects.
Next Steps
Consult a Psychologist.
CBT along with Lifestyle Changes and Interpersonal Guidance and Counselling is required.
