I hear ya, it seems weird that our bodies don't want to turn off and just sleep. It's certainly feels like it's not normal, but it is. It happens.

Have you tried anything to help you sleep? Meditation, calming music, lavender oil, benrdryl, Melatonin, hot shower or bath before bed time, walk or yoga before you sleep, any kind of otc sleep aid? I hope you can find something that helps ✌️☺️ I struggle with insomnia too. It happens randomly and more so when I'm highly stressed. I try to do all the things (and more) that I said above.

Hope you are able to find peace soon with your sleeping situation. I wish you much luck!
