As far as medications go. The current guidelines are to prescribe sedatives only in the short term, for very specific problems. In all honesty, I rarely prescribe them unless completely avoidable, they are full of problems.
The main advice I give is about getting into a set routine. Reducing anything stimulating, (so no TV, cigarettes, caffeine, alcohol etc.) Usually recommend soak in bath, glass of milk, bed, possibly a book for ten mins, lights off...
.
This is what my mate just told me and she is a Dietition (sp) and the advise I took when I couldnt sleep, all about re establishing your patterns

Medicine 
Albeit right at the bottom rung!
Edit:
Surgery/Surgical specialties I tend to avoid like the plague. Sorry.

Any professional would tell you to get rid of the problems by clearing your head rather than drown them with drugs.
People don't ask for professional advice on CS though do they?
In my experience? Yes

Had two on my neck removed, some GPs do it, others refer you to dermatology.
Liquid nitrogen stings like a bitch but gets the job done.
