I think it is very important that you start sleeping again. Insomnia just makes everything worse - depression, anxiety etc...
It might be something as simple as adjusting your estrogen dose (as I'm sure you know, menopause can really wreck your sleep patterns).
Also, there are several alternatives to benzos that may help you sleep. For instance, trazadone worked for me, but I don't know about its use in bipolar disorder. I would definately talk to your doc.
Also, when I am stressed, I shed my hair like a bobcat in july. It grows back. Does your hair loss seem to be all over your head or just in one or two places?
