Although some health experts might disagree, I think you should try eating a good size meal just before you go to bed. I used to have difficulty sleeping but now I always eat just before going to bed and I have no problem sleeping.
Avoiding caffeine altogether will also help. It can stay in your system for 4-5 hours after you take it. Sleeping tablets may initially help but over the long term you may become dependent on them and then your problem may become worse.
Also, do some fairly rigorous exercise during the day to burn away some of the negative energy you have in your life from work or from feeling lonely but don't exercise 3-4 hours before bedtime as this will raise your core body temperature and make it hard to fall asleep.
I have addressed sleeping issues and worrying about problems on my website, maybe some of that information might help. The link is below.
