Why do i keep breaking into sweats while trying to fall asleep?

Cannot diagnose: This is too vague and imprecise to even warrant a guess. Suggest you take your temperature some time before the sweats begin, along with your pulse and rate of respirations and then chat with your pcp. You don't say why you are having trouble sleeping and this may be psychological, but would need far more info to be of help.
