Doris Said:

How do I get my doctor to listen to me?

We Answered:

Well it is true that anti-anxiety medication is very addictive and some anti-depressants all have the effect of reducing anxiety so that might be why you get that type of response from doctors. They are likely to only prescribe anxiolytics in the very short term if at all as it is extremely hard to come off them once you have become addicted. There are lots of herbal things you can take that are supposed to help with sleep such as camomile, valerian root etc. so it might be worth looking into that? However, from what you have said it sounds like therapy might be helpful in the long run...I know you mentioned it but I'm not sure whether you are currently attending? Some therapists/psychologists can also help you to work on your issues with sleep depending on their orientation...
