What Sleeping Pills Do You Take?

It is a benzodiazepine yes. I have been off it before, though i know now that they are addictive.

People should refrain from taking benzos if they don't have to. That's for sure.
 
A plethora of strong dose herbs including valerian, hops, passionflower, Californian poppy, skullcap, mugwort, cramp bark. Also melatonin, strong pale ale....and stoic acceptance that life is now total dog shit.
 
None these days (thank God!) but Remeron and Trazodone in the past. Remeron leaving me feeling better the next day, but Trazodone really knocking me out for a full night sleep.
 
I've read on here and another place or two that Diazepam is ototoxic. However one of the top ENTs in Dallas put me on 2mg. three times a day for T. I told him it wasn't working for the T, but that a couple of them before bedtime helped me get sleep. He said to keep that up, forever if I wanted. He said that without a cure for T that sleep was the very best thing for it. He said the dosage was so low that it would be harmless.

I researched this doctor. His resume is a mile long with accolades! He is a leader in his field. And with all that said I still don't know what to think.
