Siouxge--day by day huh. I do know how difficult it can be but you seem to be pulling an additional load. CBT stands for Cognitive Behavioral Treatment which is generally recognized as the most efficatious for anxiety disorders and depression. Involves very direct cognitive and behavioral restructuring. The anxiety and panic could certainly be aggravated by the insomnia. The only reson I mention the bipolar (mixed) is that it is aggravated by typical ADs which can easily lead to a type of hypomania. It is clear that any recovery plan has to forth rightly address the insomnia and sleeping patterns. No one knows better than you what you are experiencing. Please stay in touch and ask for any help we can offer. No one can be as helpful as a pdoc you trust. My Best fca
