i should prob mirror this to life sxn somewhere as its probably gonna help a lot of people since i know its a common struggle

while this might sound obvious, arguably the most important thing is setting and following strict deadlines for getting up and going to bed even when you can't sleep (or when you're tired in the morning to get up) - incremental bedtimes will never work outside of a sleep deprivation therapy schedules; you shouldn't decide to do SRT though, that should be up to a professional as its very unhealthy otherwise,
in general anything you do will always lack compared to forcing yourself to get up at the projected time even if you're tired. You should also have a 1 hour decompression period before bed usually - doing really nothing "active"; passively watching stuff is fine but do not like sit on your phone in bed. Likewise, you have to force yourself to get up and to bed at the same time regularly until it becomes habitual, and only then can you kind of divulge or branch out into other schedules. Getting up at the same time (preferably early) no matter what really helps a lot. The unfortunate truth is that sleep is based on strict internal clock schedules - you need to set a specific time and ACTIVELY follow it. Like you can only divulge from this I'm talking like maybe 1 or 2 a month or when traveling. I know this is hard because people want to do stuff on weekends but until you actively have a STRICT schedule down you are regularly adhering to, you will NOT be able to fill your sleep.
If you need to take supplements, I recommend Apigenin (any dosage) & 300mcg Melatonin (both are natural and healthy - melatonin is fine but you should try to keep it around 300mcg, not the very high dosages you may see online). Herbal supplements like passionflowers, chamimile, etc. are mostly bullshit - they're "relaxants" but they aren't sedatives. Similarly, sedatives DO NOT make you sleep. They make your body think you're sleeping. This is why things like Ativan or Ambien are so dangerous - that lack of "real" sleep WILL catch up to you. However, In the short term if you have severe troubles sleeping, just absolutely can't, you can take antihistemines in low dosages. This should not be a nightly thing and should only be done in "training" periods sparsely where you absolutely cannot sleep.
Also, importantly, this is for most people - sometimes if you roll around a lot at night, you'd be surprised how changing your position can help (like, it might sound stupid, but literally just taking a pillow and blanket and sleeping on the floor or at a difference angle on your bed). Muscle memory is important and sometimes your body associates a bed with wakefulness from repeated insomnia. That's also why strict deadlines matters so much. Your body will literally remember where you can/can't sleep over time.
Alternatively, if you have like really severe insomnia, check your vitamin intake; for example, make sure you don't have deficiencies of magnesium. magnesium deficiency is a common issue which causes severe insomnia which can have other consequences too. taking magnesium 1-2 hours before bed can help at times.similarly however, over-exposure to supplements can cause severe issues; taking zinc or magnesium glycinate when you do not have deficiencies is a known cause of multi-day insomnia.

Past simple practices or intakes, as mentioned above, SRT & CBT-I work well but are really, really hard - they are purposefully VERY challenging and are not fun to go through. If you feel like s*** for the first like 2-3 weeks that basically means it's working, you just have to keep doing it - it definitely works but you have to really stick with it or else it loses its point. In reality you can only fix insomnia with behavioral practice. CBT-I is generally most recommended; this is a pattern of treating sleep in a certain manner and regularly practicing certain behaviors until you can safely associate sleep with certain times of night. SRT is a more extreme version of CBT-I, but it's very dangerous day to day unless you're being tracked by a professional as its literally sleep deprivation.
