>But the thing is, benzos do the *opposite* of what it is we're trying to accomplish. They suppress deep sleep, thus you wake up the next morning feeling groggy and unrested.
I don't know about all benzos, but temazepam is used to restore normal sleep cycles. If I recall correctly, a metabolite of diazepam is oxazepam, and a metabolite of oxazepam is temazepam. For me, temazepam gave me restorative sleep for th first time in many years. I used it nightly for over two years without any loss in efficacy.
