Hi Kho,
Read the books that I recommended and make notes on them as best you can.
Here also are two links to two of the most inspirational people I have found who had insomnia and overcame it…
“An eleven-fold self”: A Micro-Interview with Sasha Steensen – curated by Lisa Olstein
https://news.vcu.edu/article/sleep_boot_camp_a_wakeup_call_for_chronic_insomnia_sufferers
As like you, I have been sleeping 0-2 hours every day. This has been for 11 months now. This week I will be attempting 4 all nighters, no bed, no rest or microsleeps for 4 entire nights and then hopefully sleep. I will follow this immediately with cbti 5 hour window. If I make it staying up that long, I will inform you of the results.

Type in google: Nick Robinson sleeplikethedead
On his website there is a tab/topic there which says insomnia.
Click that and you will see how this man beat insomnia 14 years ago.
I have read a few sleep books and searched extensively on the internet and I can find no better explanation as to why it is so important to combat negative sleep thoughts than how this man explains it.Also type in goole how to train the subconcious mind. That way you will be able to properly install positive sleep thoughts into your subconsious.
Get these 4 books: The Effortless Sleep Method, The Effortless Sleep Method Companion, Guy Meadows Sleep Book, Set it and Forget it by Daniel.
Read all 4 books. Read a second time and highlight any key information. Read a 3rd time and write your highlighted sections into an A4 notebook. Re-read your written up notes from time to time. Then also after more time, re read the books a 4th time to see if you missed any information. For me, I read them many times over 6 months and each time I better understood where the author was coming from
The Guy Meadows book is very important because it teaches you methods how to calm anxiety and deal with thoughts. Keep going on the cbti since you have already gone 4 weeks, you may still see results. I can understand that anxiety arises after going 4 weeks and not seeing results but what you have done is incredible even if your mind and body does not say so. Keep going and know that even if you fail, then it is because you have not been working on the mental aspect of insomnia enough.
Get some index cards. With the 4 books and the website I have recommended, you will see that each book has techniques/exercises to do which can combat insomnia. For example one is called The magic belief changer, where you challenge your negative thoughts and replace them with positive thoughts. Write up all of the techniques from all of the books onto index cards, so that they are easy to find and read.
You could also, if you feel like it. Stay up all night and day for 3 nights consecutively and see if that will work. The world record is 11 days by Randy Gardtner and the research done from the study was that his health was not affected, only that his mood was not good and that he had blurry vision and trouble remembering things. If you try 3 nights and that doesn’t do it, then do 4 nights the next time you try it. Then 5, 6 until whichever amount of time will do it.
