Serious: Your Insomnia is not the common transient insomnia. It seems to be insomnia associated with some psychiatric illness. Taking a concoction of sedatives is going to harm you more and could be fatal. You need to see a sleep specialist and may need psychiatric help too. Please see a sleep specialist soon. They are usually neurologists .
