I take zopiclone at night for sleep. It works well but I haven't taken it every night. I'm about to ask the doctor for a refill though..... I also take temazepam, diazepam and an SSRI, they all help with my anxiety... also depression and insomnia.. Alternating zopiclone with a benzodiazepine is helpful, say alternate days, in my opinion. Over here (UK) only the SSRI's are supposed to be used for long term help for anxiety (out of the meds I've listed)

As SSRI's don't work for you, hopefully you can get your medical team to prescribe anti anxiety meds for you longer term. Also, are you in therapy?

Keep us updated!
