beware of meds like zopiclone that can make you dependent though.

otherwise, you could try melatonin; you get that over the counter.
Stuff like Melatonin, Benadryl, doesn't even knock me. I tried 100mg of ZZquil the other night with no sleep at all. I am also dealing with Ambien withdrawal right now as the over the counter meds will only work if you have never tried a controlled substance. Any doctor who thinks that over the counter stuff can replace Ambien or Lunesta is just plain naive and/ or stupid.
