Temazepan (restoril) is a benzodiazipine. These meds are very habit forming. I used Restoril intermittently for several months when I was experiencing severe anxiety and insomnia. I tried not to use them every night because I didn't want to become dependent on them. There is also a danger of tolerance-needing more and more of the medication to get the same effect. I went through some sleepless nights rather than become dependent on it and eventually my sleep patterns did return to close to normal.

I know sleep is a key issue for me too in staying stable and I make an effort to keep to a regular schedule no matter what. I've used benadryl too.

I guess this wasn't much help but I wanted to let you know you're not the only one with sleep issues.
