Unable to sleep at night
I'm having insomnia for the last 3-4 months along with anxiety and depression (diagnosed). I was prescribed agomelatine which didn't work for me. I've been sleeping 4 hrs each night and feeling horrible. Any help will be appreciated

I want to acknowledge how much courage it takes to voice these struggles. Often, we treat mental health as a matter of 'willpower,' but as a psychiatrist, I can tell you that what you are experiencing has a real biological and neurological basis.
Your brain, like any other organ, can sometimes struggle to maintain balance under stress. Seeking treatment isn't a sign of failure; it’s a proactive medical decision to regain your quality of life. We can work together to understand the 'why' behind these feelings and find a structured path back to your baseline. You don't have to navigate this alone.

Will need to know complete history and other medications that were prescribed for depression/anxiety. With no medications to reduce anxiety insomnia may be persistent. There are other medication options available as well. Reach out for further advise
