berries, you are not alone. i went through a phase of being addicted to sleep pills probably for about 4-5 years and i was just addicted to sleep. my life and reality didnt satisfy me and i was sick of being depressed all the time, i craved sleep when i was awake constantly. no matter how much i slept, i felt exhausted all the time. what made me stop was the fact that my unhealthy addiction to sleeping pills broke down my liver and my immune system, and i became very sick so i had to stop. to this day i am very unhealthy now and im so young but my body is broke i have scars all over my body from rashes and the itching never goes away. you dont want to let that happen to you!! it killed my self esteem im afraid for people to look at my in public and i barely ever smile  i feel like i have no reason to anymore.
i replaced my addiction for sleeping, for an addiction to being awake. i drink so much caffeine now, as soon as i wake up in the morning i drink a monster or a 5 hour, then 3-4 cups of coffee and usually another 5 hour shot in the evening. when i sleep now, it is only a light sleep, and i dont crave sleep anymore, i crave caffeine lol. im not suggesting overdosing on caffeine like i do on a daily basis, but if you dont do anything you could make things worse for yourself. i mean honestly, and i mean this kindly, i think someone should take ur sleep meds away, u are abusing them they are not meant to be taken that often and for that purpose. please, please, get some help i wish someone took my pills away years ago i wouldn't be in my situation.
much love and luck <3
