Dear Lybrate user,
it must be hard going through these tough times. I would suggest that instead of medications you go for psychological counseling/therapy.

It'll also help you in the long term, and the skills you learn in therapy will help you deal with future stressful situations. It's important to face th...more

Hi please consult a therapist and doctor, who can find out if you have other issues or symptoms also for insomnia. Before sleep meditate for 5-10 min, take a walk and use your bed only to sleep not for watching tv, mobile etc. Try to calm yourself, try to have thought free mind. All these you will have practice slowly and it will work.
If need further help can connect me on private chat.
Thanks.

Sorry madam no,
but I fear that you might suffer from benzodiazepine dependence which might severely impact your memory in year to come. Please consult a psychiatrist (in person and not teleconsultation) to get detoxification and further treatment.
