the symptom of free floating anxiety, heart racing beating fast sounds like the symptoms of an anxiety your fight ot flight system. the body is releasing too much stress hormone. I tried all the things you mentioned but the only thing that worked for me was learning "pranayama diaphramic breathing" I was on valium for a decade with these symptoms after only three weeks they were gone and have been for the past 18 months so i know it works...Most people breathe incorrectly especially those of
with anxiety disorders.We breathe very shallowly and too quickly causing the heart to race the body releases cortisol stress hormones and uneccessary anxiety. This is a very pwerful technique for dealing with anxiety in general however for insomnia
im also sticking with SR,,,,good luck
