Anxiety, Insomnia: I understand your concern. It is likely that you have Anxiety due to stresses of work, relationship with parents, siblings; relationship with girlfriend and separation, and finances. In the evening, do Exercise, Yoga and Tai Chi. Before sleeping, do Breathing and Music Relaxation, Visual Imagery and Meditation. See Psychiatrist for Therapy for stresses of life and Medication if needed.

Sleep Problems: First please get a complete physical exam from a Medical Dr. to find out if there is an underlying medical illness. If not, then it would be good to consult with a Clinical Psychologist to learn the reason for your anxiety and get help for it, additionally maybe a referral for a sleep study and/or medication
