Temazepam?

Anyone taking this for sleep? How do you make it work? I know I can't take it every day or it will become useless, so am trying to take only on days I need the pain meds which make sleep extra difficult. I was worried about taking this since it's a benzo, but it's much more subtle for me than ambien. Ambien made me a little euphoric-hypnotic, like drunk and making bad choices. Temazepam just makes me want to hug my dog and go to sleep. Naturally I'd love to have that every day, forever, but know it doesn't work like that. Can you take it a couple times a week only and then keep it working for a while?

I'm on a little dose of amitriptyline and could go up but I don't think it's doing anything aside from making me fatter (also have had added joint pains on it, though that seems to be subsiding).

Damn it for how the basics of life are so high-maintenance. I just want to sleep like humans do.
