Your doctor might prescribe an atypical neuroleptic like Zyprexa or Seroquel to help you sleep by shutting the thoughts up. This is becoming common practice now. I have taken them both.

I can best describe it as a radio that is left switched on in my head when I am sleeping, except that it is my own random thoughts and I can't switch it off except by stopping my medication. I've tried sleeping with music or the TV on to try and drown it out but to no avail.
