Hi Thanks for seeking help here. Last 7 years u have insomnia due to thoughts that suggests you are having anxiety or depression. Depression also have low mood and lack of energy and poor concentration. Th best treatment for these thoughts are cognitive behavioural therapy. We can do one session in practo.
