for strictly as needed and/or short-term use, I think temazepam is a good choice for the sleep deprived, personally.
klonopin was once a last ditch benzodiazpeine. somehow, it became the 'it' benzodiazepine. one would think xanax xr would be more popular, especially in the depressive states, but...not so much.
valium is a golden oldie. personally, i wish i'd been prescribed valium, even at a lower equivalent dosage, than klonopin or ativan. the muscle relaxant qualities can be helpful, and I think the sedation could potentially help with agitation and sleep, helping reduce neuroleptic dosage and akathisia...
all while keeping the overall benzodiazepine dosage lower than using the high(er) potency drugs. just a thought.
im also somewhat curious about meprobamate. apparently, some people still take it. Good ole Miltown is still being prescribed to new patients. still Schedule IV. I think it would be more physically relaxing, which could be helpful.
