Dear lybrate-user, Insomnia may be an early warning sign of mania or a symptom of depression. If the cause is treated, then you can sleep well. You may not need a separate treatment for insomnia. You are already taking alprax 0.5 mg which also serves as a sedative. There can be other causes for insomnia. Those need to be looked into. Please follow up with your psychiatrist.
