Funnily enough when I was much younger I developed amnesia. It was devastating in many levels. Lost friendships, it impacted my long term memory, my concentration. I could go several nights without sleep no matter what I did.
My mind would wander, I would worry about things, it was a nightmare.
Eventually I had to relearn how to fall asleep. I am now much older and I won’t say my sleep is perfect, but I can easily fall asleep within minutes. I had to rewire myself to empty my mind of every external real life related thought. What works for me is to build an imaginary world and dive into it. Eventually that world disappears and I fall asleep.
I know there are other techniques but this works for me.
