I went on to insulin earlier this year and it has helped even things out. I wonder if you are testing and so know what your blood sugar is at various times of the day? That really is pivotal to getting to grips with diabetes.
I am a couple of decades older than you, but reading other younger posters on the forum, insulin seems to suit most and if you get your blood sugar under control, that is far more important than which particular med you have.
Go with it. Good luck.
