Hi, I have chronic insomnia which has turned my mild social anxiety into chronic social anxiety also. I get about 3 hours of sleep most nights scattered across a 12 hour time period and some nights I get no sleep at all. I can barely look someone in the eye when holding a conversation, my mouth and other parts of my face twitch uncontrollably when I try to smile and I can only actually have a conversation with a few people who are very close to me. I am too sensitive to what people say and how they judge me and this is as a result of being deprived, it’s made my thoughts go from a few pondering thoughts throughout the day to about ten every minute. Im not exaggerating unfortunately. This has been going on for 3 years. Also, my sleep problem is entirely psychological, all my blood work is normal.

I don’t want to go down the rabbit hole of standard medication again because it is just sedation and not real, deep restful sleep. I have come to this sub because I have heard many success stories about using psychedelics to treat anxiety and insomnia among other things.

My main question here is : What psychedelic (drug and dose) would be best to address these issues and possibly cure them? Thank you to anyone who reads this!
