With enough money to survive and thrive without working, I would probably be OK… all I can do is hide from the world

I wish you get your good life back soon. Do you still struggle with insomnia? If so, have you tried non medical treatment? Like exercising before bed time, taking a hot shower, cooling down the room prior to bed time, getting a more comfortable mattress, etc...?
I am able to sleep now but only with the use of ativan. I have tried a lot of sleep hygiene things such as tea, bedtime routines etc , it seems something that biologically controls sleep is altered
