Sleep hygiene: Do not start taking xanax (alprazolam) for sleep unless panic attacks are keeping you awake. Xanax (alprazolam) is not a hypnotic and can be very addictive. You first need to examine your situation. Do you take naps during the day?; do you drink a lot of caffeine during the day? Do you have sleep apnea? Do you snore? Are you on medications that perhaps are keeping you awake? Do you exercise? Do you snore?
