Yes it will and after time it will not be enough. It is a opiate. Buspar is for anxiety but won't put you to sleep and is not addictive. Talk seriously to your dr. Every medicine acts different for every person.

Black rose bloom . I think everyone is different and has a different tolerance so u just hv to play w it . I learned that my zanax makes me too sleepy during the day so I can only take at night . Be in a safe place wen u try out these specific meds . Good luck Cathy

2mg diazepam should not make you sleep it depends upon your tolerance . I was on 10mg diazepam 4 times a day on that I did sleep . 5mg slowed flashbacks but 2mg didn't touch me . Let me know how you get on . Here for u always x
