I started having what seems like a very similar problem just before I turned 21. I literally would not sleep for 4 days straight. It really freaked me out too. I can't tell you how bad it feels. The doctors have given me ambien, lunesta, elavil. Only the elavil can put me to sleep. That's how I've survived this long. I still feel tired all the time when I take it. It's a rotten way to live. Yet that's the only help the medical camp has provided me so far. Nobody has a clue as to why I can't sleep.
