Fail. In the Highway Code, you may remember "You must not drive under the influence or alcohol, or any other drug", or words to such effect. If you think you need a sedative to help you drive, please stay off the roads when I use them! You either can drive, or you can't. You should have been not only having lessons, but been added as a named-driver to a family-members' car insurance, and should have been doing all the driving you can, until the novelty wears off, at all times of the day, short trips, long trips, country lanes, dual carriageways, day and night.
Learning to drive is about exactly that - LEARNING to drive. Take your time, don't rush it. I had 27,000 miles in 18 months as a learner. I have now had 25 years of driving, have a clean licence, and have had no accidents.
