I'm so sorry that you are having a difficult time sleeping. It is the very last thing you need at such a horrible time.
I do not think your problem is psychological. You said yourslef that you slept until you took medicine.I think that your body is used to having drugs in its system and cannot sleep without them . They have stopped working because sleeping pills do after a period of time and you are now left with a body that cannot sleep naturally and will not respond to drugs.
My advice ( and please please ignore it if you feel I don't know what I'm talking about)is to stop taking any drugs and let your body repair itself. Your doctor is and idiot if he/she feels that you will knw when to come off the pills. You may want to but it will be a lot harder the longer you re on them for.
I was addicted to sleeping pills ( never saw it as an adiction at the time) for 5 years and it took me 2 solid years to come off them. I sleep perfectly now and I thought I would never ever sleep properly again.
Good luck
