Suggest Treatment For Learning Difficulty With Insomnia

I have had a learning disability ever since I was a toddler. I also believe, I have ADD. I am a very mellow (very low blood pressure) person. I do stress out a lot when I struggle to learn. But I keep it private. I do not want to go through a battery of tests. I would like to take a drug to help me to relax. I do not have any addictions. I do suffer from severe insomnia. Any suggestions for me? I am currently not taking any meds. I am a 55 yr. old female. I would like to be able to have better focus on what I am doing or learning as I mature. Thanks for any advice.

Dear
Welcome to HM
We understnd your concerns

I went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. Self diagnosis is dngerous. You should unergo the psychometric tests of assessment. What if your worries about ADD and learning difficulties are just an illusion?. What if you were just imagining them and acting as if you actually have them? That is where you have to be careful. Please visit a clinical psychologist and get yourself assessed and be peaceful and get treatment if the problems exist.

Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications.
Good luck.
