Do try the benzos, they will help, and in the short term it might be the best option you have. If you are seeking something lighter, guaifenesin (an OTC muscle relaxant available under different brand names) can help according to my experience to give you the 'kick' from "sinking" towards sleep to really sleeping. And, importantly, give up as much caffeine as you can, if you are consuming any. Caffeine shifts your inner clock. Otherwise, as other have suggested D3+magnesium, and physical fatigue can really help a lot (as tired muscles can then signal to the brain that they really want to sleep).
