      I am a 52 year old male. Married with 2 teenage kids. I have health anxiety/OCD with panic disorder and have been coping with insomnia for past 12 years. Was bad when anxiety hit first in my 40s, got better in between, but now at 52 is quite bad. I barely get deep, restful sleep. I am on SSRI and dopamine receptor medication for my anxiety. Never took sleep medications other than benzos for short period. My current pychiatrist has prescribed Dayvigo but I am not fully satisfied with it. I take time to fall asleep, have very shallow and dreamy sleep, rapid heart rate on most nights. Your help to get me to have better quality sleep will be much appreciated.
