I have mentioned these before but to save people scrolling I'll say again:
For sleep: Doxylamine and Melatonin - both OTC in U.S, both legally imported on the internet in U.K. (Look for "Unisom" (US) or Kirkland sleep aid (UK))
For daytime: Pregabalin (look for "Lyrica") I have never tried this, but I have read a LOT about it, it seems to be the best of the bunch. This is prescription only, however I don't see why a Dr would be hesitant to prescribe it.
I never use b3nz0s to sleep, did years ago but not now, Doxy & Mel work great for me (arguably better) - tho I've only ever had D1az.
Unfortunately I now rely on Doxy & Mel, however I am not addicted, I would not feel a single withdrawal symptom if I stopped, I just wouldn't sleep as well, but it wouldn't mess with me physically or emotionally if I never touched either ever again. I know this because when I go on holidays, although I pack it, I don't take it (a mix between a few beers and not having an alarm is a 'cure' in itself) so I go 7-14 days without having any and I'm 100% fine, I'm happy with this.
I believe Preg (Lyrica) is a bit addictive, but not nearly as much as b3nz0s.
My advice would be to taper down to a (or equivalent of a) 2mg per day D1az ... addiction ... before switching to a low as possible dose of Preg (Lyrica)
I guess the Preg (Lyrica) part is aimed at people with a higher b3nz0 intake, my intake is fairly low so I plan to cold turkey, once the time is right.
Good luck to you all.
