Yeah I really don't feel like you're at risk for addiction. I sure I am. But perhaps what I was trying to say is that as much as it's a problem, it's nothing but a problem and there is no shame in that.
Also perhaps what you could try is another class of anti anxiety stuff such as pregabalin or gabapentin. They tend to have a good effect on sleep and also slightly anti depressant, and some find that overall they anti anxiety effect is superior to benzodiazepines, with very short withdrawal.
This is why I was suggesting a pdoc because they have a better imagination and experience than GPs when it goes with the medication.
What it seems to me is that you're overflowing over what simple anti ancient pills are designed for, and that you aren't in the right class of medication and the sleep should be addressed in itself because it's quite fundamental for the rest. Perhaps just resting would do it, taking a week off, going for a hike or just driving around.
I also am stressed with groups of people except for very old friends I know from a long time and we all snuggle together, it's quite lovely. It has done things no antidepressant has done. I have to say it's also a crew we used to do MDMA with so there is a kind of special bond around that too. They also know my history. I am lucky to have people who know the exact distance of comfort and let yourself be yourself even if you're withdrawn. So these are the kind of interactions I discovered I should be seeking when I start to feel anxious or depressed.
Covid also greatly impacted our ways to communicate with others and I think it has contributed to feelings of disconnection even in healthy people. It's not nothing.
You're really have a lot on your plate and I'm feeling like social support would help you deal with a great part of it. Sometimes a valium helps to at least get out of the frenzy and make us more available to that.
Gentle hugs and hope things will get better. You're already holding on very well and I think you can acknowledge that for yourself too.
