Default still can't find the right medication

So what I have is basically anxiety about any physical influence to the head, anxiety about getting setbacks and anxiety that I don't get my old life back. The anxiety causes extreme sleeping problems, what means that my condition will hardly get better.

I doubt that my doctor is able to get the point. She gave me 10mg Zyprexa and 3 mg Temesta. The zyprexa caused extreme muscle commotions so that we have to get off it. Now she decided to try Risperidal(for 6 months!), that has the same effect on dopamin receptors. So I end up trying to fall asleep for hours because of my restless legs. I think she completely misses the point of my problems and should rather consider Cymbalta,Cipralex, Lyrica etc.

I alread tried amitryptiline and trazodone for sleeping. My sleep didn't really improve. It is all anxiety that causes the troubles.

What should I do?
