Detailed Answer:
Hello
Welcome here.
I can understand your concerns.

There are drugs which will help to treat depression and insomnia.

Drugs like paroxetine or escitalopram help in depression.

Drugs like xanax or klonopin will help to manage insomnia.

These are prescription drugs, however.

Hope this helps.
