I need to sleep...can anyone help me?

I have chronic headaches and intense back pain from steel rods and a fusion from years ago. My doc has me on Nortriptaline (anti-dep) for depression and pain, but it's not working! My pain seems to worsen at night for some reason and then I'm up until 6:30 am or so and then go to bed and sleep until 1:00 pm. Luckily I don't have a job outside the home or I would be fired! I also take Lortab for pain on occasion and I have some Klonopin. I don't like drugs at all and wish I could go the natural route, but supplements don't seem to have the effect that a prescription drug has. If anyone has advice I would appreciate it so much! I have 2 kids and a hubby that deserve a better mommy. It's hard to be your best when you are miserable!
