How Can Severe Insomnia Be Treated?

Hi i am taking Mirtazon 45mg tabs for depression and anxiety for the past 2 months. I have had anxiety really badly due to car accident and sale of home. My doctor has put me on Alprax 1, half a tablet 3 times a day. I have been on this for 2 weeks. I am not sure whether I can take the last half of Alprax for sleep as i am having problems sleeping. Even when I take just half of Alprax can I take this with the Mirtazon at night or should the Mirtazon be taken early on in the evening. The half tablet of Alprax does not seem to be enough for getting a good nights sleep.

Thanks for the query. I undeesxtand your concern
Alprox acts in management of anxiety depression .You need not increse the dose
for getting sleep.
Getting rid of anxiety... &think of the way out of the problems is real way to get skeep.
You can ask for a sleeping pill for time being for few days.... &get helo of a counsellor for finding the way out. Once yiu are convinced of that you can find the way out &determined to do so... the anxiery would no more bother you... &yiu would start getting sound sleep.
