I need to ask few questions. why u started taking these medicines ? What were signs n symptoms at that time ? Currently do u have any behavioural disturbances?One need to explore ur case in detail to reach some diagnosis before giving any opinion.Thanx
Yes, Dr Qasim Malik is right, first detailed assessment is required in your case, then we can guide you regarding your problem.

I visited a doctor every month for follow up... he said you have to be relaxd your mind and due to mental pressure you have theses symptoms... so he suggested these medicines... but after 4 months I could not visit... meanwhile I stop taking the medicine few days but I realized that I am not feeling well... in those days I slept at night.. during sleep my mind was looking awake and in working process..

Dear patient,
Have you never visited any Psychologist? in the first place, you needed counselling and psychotherapy. Medications alone and that too with abrupt dosages (taking and not taking medicine on your own) won't help you.
Consider booking an appointment with a Psychologist to get yourself more help and feel better.
Yes u r addicted and this needs proper treatment according to latest American guidelines... U can contact me through marham... InshaAllah u will b fine after one month course of medication

Walaikum salaam wrwb,
There are some things one should understand,
If a person is under treatment of any certified doctor of relevant field, you cannot say that the patient has gotten addicted to them, if the medication is taken without proper consult and self medication is done that is another story.
As for your case there seem like you had some issues, and were prescribed the medication mentioned above.
I would suggest you to re consult a psychiatrist for re evaluation, and further plan for management,
You might need both medicine and sessions for better outcome. Regards.
Dear, psychlogist can't advice medicine, consult psychiatrist to revise your treatment, after getting better, medicine must be tapered slowly to avoid side effects
Dear Concern
Answering specifically your question, alp can cause dependency, your doctor May advice u other methods for sleep (sleep hygiene). One must not abrupt stop it. Your doctor will switch on other and stop with time.. for other medicines again question is what were reasons to start and whats ur condition now.
So better to consult a good psychiatrist there for medicines..
