You can take sleep initiative medicines.

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your concern.
You can try sleep initiative medicines like zolpidem, alprazolam, clonazepam etc. These drugs are not having sedative effect. They just help you in initiating sleep.
So if you are having stress and tension than these drugs will help you.
Other reasons are high blood pressure, high carbon dioxide levels due to morbid obesity etc.
So control of blood pressure is must in your case.
So at present be relax and calm. Avoid stress and tension. Take any of the above mentioned drug.
Hope I have solved your query.
