I hate to circumvent such a well thought out and helpful post, but really, the key to sleeping well at night is as simple as having a meaningful day.

I don't drink coffe or any other stimulant,
I bath at night,
My room is not a room, it's a gym, weights everywhere, a monkeybar right above my bed, a sandbag, pretty much my life is training, so i get more than enough exorcize.
My so called room is also full of books, so I read quite a bit.
My problem is not that i can't sleep, my problem is that at night I'm never sleepy, I only feel tired during the day, If I'm to go to bed at 8pm, I wake up at 10pm and feel like sleeping once i reach the morning, even If don't sleep for two days straight the moment i reach the night I feel like I could run a marathon... I don't know what to do, I just hate the morning.

There is a chance your sleeping problems are a result of something you cannot change, however. There is a lot of individual variation in sleep patterns. Some people are naturally "night owls", tending to go to sleep late and wake late. Some people also have longer circadian rhythms than average (the circadian rhythm is supposed to be 24 hours long and it can be altered by exposure or lack of exposure to light) and differing levels/timing of hormones can also affect sleepiness. All these can contribute to sleep disorders, and if the sleep disorder is severe, just trying to change your habits may not help, and medical help may be necessary. If you were just a normal night owl I would not think much of it, but the degree of your sleep dysfunction sounds quite severe so I think it's quite important that if none of your efforts succeed in solving your sleep habits, you must go to a doctor and get screened for sleep disorders, which will allow you to receive professional advice and treatment if necessary.
The problem with the drugs is that my metabolism is fast, so most things don't work well, I tried a few things with my doctor for a while, but most didn't really help me much, and I don't want to start taking things that are too strong because I'm scared it might affect my daily life even more.
