Sleeping is healing for physical illness for sure and but I've never seen a positive correlate with mental ilness. You want to be sure to get a nice 8 hour sleep but sleeping longer promotes an early death and other adverse effects so it depends on how much you are actually getting. Sleep deprivation is for sure linked to psychosis but here is the thing you already have a sleep med (XanaX) as part of your regimen two seems excessive unless you literally can't sleep without it. So I don't know its specific to your situation but the reality is unless you are happy how you are living right now then you have to change docs or things will not get better for you. Perhaps you'll realize that where you're at right now is the best you can do at this moment in time with the technology and treatments available and if that's the case then you can go back. But what if the new doc and 4mg a day is much better? You'll never know unless you try...
