Hello thanks for asking from HCM for your health related queries

I can understand your concern. The symptoms like persistent sleeplessness, difficulty and unhappiness in relationships, poor interest in talking to anyone etc could occur due to some underlying depression. These symptoms need proper evaluation. Most likely the cause of the sleeplessness is these symptoms. Medicines like Paroxetine, Mirtazapine, Trazodone etc can be used in sleeplessness and prove useful in depression also. These medicines are safe to use and are free of serious side effects. Apart from this for sleep medicines like Z-drugs as Zopilcone, Zolpidem or Benzodiazepines as Clonazepam, Lorazepam etc can be used. These medicines help in good sleep and will improve your symptoms. Please consult your psychiatrist and take proper prescription of these drugs.

Thanks, I hope this helps you.

Take care
