Hi you've probably heard about these already but have you tried white noise apps on your smartphone or tablet? Don't have them too loud, especially through earphones. Just loud enough for your brain to be distracted by them. And how about mediation - Headspace is a good one. And if you are struggling to get to sleep maybe sleep stories- Calm do some free ones.

Good luck!
