sleep insomnia

i was diagnosed with sleep insomnia, ptsd, panic disorder, and major depresive disorder a little over a yr. ago. at first, the dr's just had me on a low dose of zoloft to see if it would help. tho it did help with the depression and a little with the anxiety, i still couldn't sleep. after raising the dose of my zoloft a few more times, and trying seroquil, the dr's finally put me on ambien when i couldn't sleep. i'm now steady on 100mg of zoloft daily, and 5mg of ambien nightly. but my imsomnia and anxiety still have a control over my life. are there other meds that i should sugest to my dr to help with the problems? and are there some meditation exercises that could help too?
