sleep deprived

Sorry I am so sleep deprived I hope this is the correct category. Now I am on sleeping meds, prescribed by a doctor. I have been on many different ones, since I was 18.(this one has the least fatal effects) I am 31 and now I am lucky to get 1 hour of undisturbed sleep. I suffer from over active bladder (o.a.b) been through ever test available and it won't go away or can be handled. I must live with it (since 12, I was once normal with my bladder) anyway the bladder adds to my sleep deprivation (getting up anywhere from 3-16 times a night in 4-5 hours and lessening my liquid intakes makes the bladder worse.). Sorry if this isn't making much sense. I feel I will not lose weight or gain any muscle if I can only nap.

Anyone one know any ideas, besides warm milk or tea before bed? I am so in need of real sleep.
