You probably already know this Link, but I have heard it said that BZD-1 receptor agonists ("pseudobenziodiazepines") do not disrupt sleep architecture whereas benzos do. Something about benzos disrupting stage 4 and/or REM phases whereas (es)zopliclone/zolpidem do not do this, and so give much more restorative sleep than a benzo.

Hope you're able to get a better handle on the sleep. Peace...Saturn.
