I know there have been many threads on sorting out sleep.

My problem is stress/hyper-vigilance and constant night awakenings and lack of restful sleep.
I wake up every hour at the moment. At the most I sleep 2 hours at a stretch, and that is rare.
And this is on mirtazapine and wearing ear plugs!

The noisy people upstairs moved out, but new people moved in right away, and my flatmate says they're worse than the previous tenants - she's been in all afternoon, I was at work. They are very loud with their feet. But if they're not 'nocturnal' like those previous, that will be something. They're out right now.

I am desperate for decent sleep.
I have a lot of stressors in my life right now.
I will hear in a couple of weeks or so if I'll keep my job [UK public sector]. Also in a couple of weeks I will know whether my father has enlarged prostrate, or if something else is making him ill.
Things are strained in my relationship with my flatmate [long story].

I don't know what to do. The only time I can seem to really truly relax and feel safe is in the second half of a therapy session.
I am SO tired. People are commenting on how tired I look.

My GP won't adjust my medication or add anything on. I just have to put up with it. I can only take a zopiclone once or twice a week. I sleep slightly better then - a couple of 3 hours at a stretch at the most.

I have a couple of mp3s that help. But even though they help a bit, I can still hear outside sounds [I know you can get fancy ear phones, but not currently on my budget], and my ear plugs are better at that, but then it's hard to wind down.

I am so wound up. Most of the time. Am trying to regulate it the best I can.

Help!
