Default extreme sleeplessness

hi! i use melatonin and it helps me sleep and get to sleep fast. i have always had a sleeping problem.i quit all caffeine-that was so hard cause i loved coffee.i turn off my phone.the melatonin seems to help alot.and to try and not think about not sleeping and try not to think of sleeping and how u aren't.if my hubby and i are on a trip and i am sitting up and noddening off-as soon as he says"here-get this pillow "or" put your seat back"... i am fighting the battle of now trying to nod off and i can not.not after he makes it an issue which he does not mean to do.so i try to relax into the sleepy-ness and good feelings of our new mattress and feel how good it feels.i get my hot water bottle for my feet and in no time...i am sleeping.then the next problem...how to stay asleep. i always get up after 4 -5 hours and roam around the house...all nite.agh!! good luck
