Question
hi there.  i'm looking for a sleeping pill that will force me to sleep deeply and quickly.  i dont want anything that i could get addicted to, although i'd use it on rare occasions anyhow.  i'm concerned with side effects too... i'd hope to find a sleeping pill or something like that which wouldnt' make me sick or feel too groggy the next day. i work shift work and have trouble flipping back and forth from nights to days.  i'd love to get a solid 8 hours of sleep, which is seemingly impossible with everything else i've already tried.  i found imovane to be far too mild as an example.  i just feel drunk with it.  thanks for your help.

Answer
Hi Amanda,
I would recommend Alprazolam (xanax) or nitrazepam or lorazepam (ativan). However I know that these are controlled substances in some countries including the US. Since I do not knwo which country you reside it would not be possible for me to advice you how to get any one of these.
