Insomnia is worsening help!

Hi, my insomnia started with one night this hot summer and then the thought of the fear of not sleeping perpetrated it. At first I slept with benzodiazepines and music delta waves , later I had a few totally sleepless nights and my doctor gave me seroquel and tapered the trylaphon I was taking . I had a lot of anxiety but even though I was anxious I managed to sleep for at least two weeks in a raw,though my sleep was disturbed and I waked at night a lot or I didn't remember if I slept or not and how much. I went to see another doctor and gave me melatonin . This month things worsenedI can't fall asleep even though the seroquel is at150 the only way I get to sleep is with an other 25of seroquel taken in the middle of the night. I'm scared because I can't sleep and I can't sleep all night and can't sleep the afternoon later or take naps etc. tried muscle relaxation meditation acupressure . It's like my brain is in
Confusion. Is there something that keeps
Me awake? or I can't sleep because of the anxiety? 25 of seroquel in the early morning put me to sleep but not 150 at the moment I should sleep . What can I do Do I need a hypnotist? Psychological L help soon ? I'm desperate . Only one night this week I slept normally.

You can't sleep because your anxiety won't allow it. Then the more you think about not sleeping the worse it gets to fall asleep. In the past I used to think about stuff in order to fall asleep. I was convinced that I had to take my mind off of trying to fall asleep by always thinking about anything apart from sleeping. This actually worked for a little while but in the end it wasn't working for me anymore as my thoughts would always end up with 'why am I not asleep yet'.

My grandad who has PTSD and has had his fair share of sleepless nights told me to simply lay on my side (or whatever you find most comfortable) close my eyes and completely focus on the blackness you see when your eyes are closed. Nothing more, clear your mind during that time. Just lay there, focus on the darkness in front of you when you close your eyes and breathe. The moment you start to think 'why am I not asleep yet' your mind will just wake you up out of it again.

This is easier said than done but I highly suggest trying it.
