Insomnia - Chronic and Debiliating

I have been under treatment for Sleeplessness for almost 5 Years Now. In this journey, like many people I was treated for anxiety and other psychosomatic conditions. I have taken numerous medicines as prescribed from time to time.. I will not list all those meds here otherwise you will judge me as someone diving deep in google and resorting to self-treatment, which is not true in my case. I have been patient enough and given good time to all the medicines and all the doctors I came across. I am not a case of treatment failure as my anxiety have been oartially cured in all these years though Insomnia still haunts. Now I am in pursuit of a psychiatrist who have deep interest and expertise in sleep medicines and handling difficult to treat cases of Anhedonia/OCD and Benzodiazapene dependence. I am seeking serious help. Regards
