Zoloft (sertraline): 50mg of Zoloft is usually prescribed for sleep which is comonly caused by excess anxiety. A certain amount of anxiety is normal as it motivates us to do something to relieve it (whatever it is we're worried about). But if it interferes with our functioning then it may be time for some relief. Zoloft is less addictive than the benzodiazepines like Xanax (alprazolam) and Valium, Klonipin etc.
