I wrote : "neden sen cayi icmiyorsun"- Is it a mistake if I put "sen" to the sentence? I thought it is not necessary but you can- or is the order of the words wrong in my sentence?

It is added, next time it will be easier if you report it :)
You can use "sen" in everywhere in this sentence, but it is optional.

Yes, "niye", "neden", "niçin" mean the same, there is not really a difference among them. I don't know if it is only me, but I use "neden" and "niye" more often than "niçin".

Ne+den=from what, Ne+için(niçin)=for what; I think based on etymology of these "N questions" there is nuance differences among them, besides niye is more formal form as far as I feel by heart!
