Dizziness. Lorazepam Withdrawal? Or what

I was on Ativan for 5 years for insomnia. It stopped helping me sleep, so have been tapering for 4 months from 4mg, to 2mg, to 1mg, now .75mg. I am always dizzy/giddy. Feel imbalance. In online and YouTube searches never say dizziness is withdrawal symptom. I consulted 3 psychiatrists but they just gave other drugs that didn't help so I stopped taking them soon after to avoid withdrawals. I do deep breath and acupressure daily. Nothing stops dizziness. What to do? I live in Bangalore and don't know what kind of doctor to consult. Lucky I am sleeping okay as I'm taking some natural supplements that help, along with acupressure for sleep. But how to stop my disturbing dizziness?
