Been down that route, Temazepam, Valium etc. in the past but they are hell to get off if you become addicted as I did. They were doled out by Doctors like Smarties at one time. If I can't sleep I never get up, never put the light on and don't look at the clock.

Oh I agree with you 100% about the docs handing them out like smarties they used to give me like 56 zopiclone a month and that went on for 2 years when the recommended time is a one of 2 week prescription.
They create addicts, come to think of it we show sew lol coming off them is not a good feeling.
