HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Sleep disorders are very common. It is possible that you may only need the pills for the short term and may not need to use them continuously.
If you prefer not to use at all, you may want to make sure that your sleep hygiene is good. This refers to different practices that may affect sleep.
You can consider looking for different aspects of sleep hygiene to see if making these changes would help you.
I hope this helps
