I've been on some sort of sleeping pill for years too, I keep putting off trying to come off as I don't want to go through that insomnia, my brain doesn't remember how to sleep without meds, I know how you feel hun, it's so hard, but my medication seems to poop out so I go from one thing to another and swap meds and then go back on another one, I get some zopiclone off my doctor but I need 2, 3, 4 a time so they only last a few days lol, so other than that and a sedating antidepressant I have to buy my sleeping pills and just can't afford to anymore so need to come off them all
You could try promethazine once you're at a safe amount of benzos to come off, promethazine is sold over the counter in alot of places, valerian is another pill that you can use to come off benzos, it's a herb thars been used for 1000s of years, you'll need quite a high dose, I'm trying everything, I have a lavender infused eye pillow that I put by by pillow as the smell is meant to be sedating, you can buy lavender lotions and stuff for the bath too, not sure it helps people like us who's addicted to stronger stuff but it can't hurt
