I’m suffering from Anxiety and currently on medication. The first 6 weeks i was on Zopiclone and today is my 3nd day coming off from it. I had no sleep for 2 nights. What to do so I can get sleep tonight? Will my sleep come back?

Although this might not get you to sleep, it should reduce your anxiety – try some guided meditation. There are some apps for your phone, and many good ones on YouTube. I particulary enjoy the guided meditaion from the Mindful Movement on YouTube. So many days and nights I thought I might go crazy, but 20-30 minutes listening to these and I felt restored.

Welcome to the forum. Are you currently receiving any kind of therapy or treatment for your anxiety or your sleep issues? Many people find it helpful to combine coming off sleep medication with cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) techniques since these techniques help address sleep-related worry and anxiety, help you regain confidence in your ability to sleep and will help improve your sleep over the long term.
