Could Poor Decision Making Be Due To Ativan And Stilpane?

Hi,
I have been taking 0.5mg Ativan (lorazepam) for 10 years but this is not sufficient to get sleep, so I supplement this with one and a half tablets of stilpane each night. With this combination I sleep throughout the night, but after chronic use I am not functioning well mentally. I make decisions poorly and have to push myself to get through the day. Please advise if I can supplement either of these tablets with something else.
Thank you
