"i tried 1 mg clonazepam, it did work for my insomnia, but i did look up the half life of it which is up to 30-40 hours. plus the withdraw from it, so i weened myself off of it. spoke to my doctor about what else is there and i was prescribed 150 mg trazodone. it works great. if you look up the side effects it will say definitely not to be used for a sleep aid. it is safe to use in smaller milligrams like i use. 150 mg."
