You might try relaxation techniques to help calm your mind. When my mind races I turn my attention to my breathing and count my breaths. It usually quiets my mind and lets me go to sleep. I actually have an app on my phone that helps me if I have a particularly bad time with thought stopping. It's called Relax and I have another one that I use called Buddhify. Good luck.
