I hear you brother (no bro), I went several years with 3-5 hrs sleep at night and 24 - 48 with no sleep frequently. Only the last 6 months have I finally started getting 6 -8 hrs a night and once in a while even more, even without strong sleep aids most of the time. fibromyalgia can be a bitch but it's much easier to control once you realize you have it.
