I hope your pdoc will prescribe a decent med for sleep.
Another option would be to go to a walk in clinic tomorrow and see if they will prescribe something for you. Even if they only prescribe 5 it will help you make to Monday.
Sleep deprivation is not funny. I have gone through it myself and it's dangerous.
Can you post here after you have tried it just to let us know that you are ok?
