Xanax in small doses works wonders. I take it occasionally for insomnia. It gets lumped in with antidepressants and SSRIs but it does not deserve the bad rep.
I can tell horror stories abot Ambien and hypnotics, though. Ugh.

The secret to safe ongoing use of Xanax is in the dosage. It needs to be real low but for long term use low and consistent in the bloodstream. My doctor started me out on 2 MG twice a day. Half the time it worked then I was waiting out the other six hours it didn't. After a couple of years I found a doctor who knew what he was doing. He said no more antidepressants it doesn't work on what you have. He changed my dosage to
.5 mg four times a day.
It doesn't always do the trick but allows me to function now at least at home. For example I'm fixing to go to The Cracker Barrel for supper. Between taking an extra pill before leaving and turning my hearing aids way down I can stand being there LOL.
