It sounds like a very busy schedule, and I'm sorry your feeling upset about wanting your partner to feel better, it's hard to see someone you love hurting. I really think your best option is to talk to your doctors, they should be the ones to sort out the medication and help your partner get some sleep. I work grave yards, I know how hard it is to function regular daily life when you also need that time to sleep. I understand his anxiety over taking or changing his meds, but if it's going to make him feel better, just help him cope with it the best you can.
