Xanax *is* a benzo (a triazolo-benzodiazepine, like Halcion, to be more specific), and a quite addictive one at that... but it may be the best option we currently have in the U.S. for avoiding depression that benzos may cause, as Xanax is often claimed to have anti-depressant properties. (Sure wish adinazolam would come to the states.......) Good luck finding a doctor who'll prescribe it for sleep, though. What about trazodone?
As a side note, I take Klonopin personally, and it doesn't make me the least bit depressed... quite the contrary.
