I used to take it for sleep. It helped with sleep, but made me feel zombie ish, that a part of me just wasn't there. At first, I didn't mind bc I was a) getting sleep and b) less anxious. I did experience strange side effects. I stopped bc I tried to overdose on it. I have ultimately stopped taking sleep meds as I was taking a crap load of medication and turning into someone I didn't want to become. I would rather wake up for a little while during the night instead of take it.

All in all it did help. Good luck with your decision.
