Specialist: Your best move would be to see a physician who specializes in sleep disorders as it's not advisable to become dependent on these types of medications especially at your age as they become quite habit forming and you wouldn't want to become dependent on them.The physician would perform a thorough evaluation of your insomnia and advise you on medication or Referrals to other specialists as well.

Worked for 2 weeks: only Ambien (zolpidem) is habit forming. If you took many of those COMBINED and not sleep well, means you have severe mental disease not just sleep problem. If Rx works for only 2w then means not proper dosing for long term benefit. You have severe problem and need a psychiatrist early to avoid aggravation and waste of time and health by symptomatic treatment.
