Most of the time, when I take a sleep aid, I first fall asleep nice and easy. But then 3-5 hours later I start moving around a lot and it wakes me up. But my body tries to fall back asleep but then it fights itself and tries to wake up. So I end up falling asleep, and then I wake myself up again because I’m literally thrashing around in my bed, and repeat until I finally fall asleep and get a shitty 2 hour nap before my alarm. Why?

You’re not alone. I know someone who gets that Restless Legs Syndrome when they take sleep aids. They don’t have RLS otherwise. His doctor didn’t try to figure it out, but instead just gave him a pill for the restless legs.
RLS can have the whole body moving around too, not just the legs.
