I take clonazepam given to me by my sleep doctor. I have no trouble falling asleep only staying asleep really and the meds keep me asleep but I know they’re very addictive so I don’t like to take them daily

Maybe they can supplement or replace the clonazepam with something non-addictive? Perhaps something like doxepin or trazadone?
