Yes, it might become a serious issue if left untreated for a long time. Insomnia is a condition where you can't sleep well. Sleep is important for your mental, physical and overall health. People with insomnia are prone to fatigue, anxiety and even can enter the stage of depression.

Dear lybrate-user, relax and calm down, you should not have given up pregaba in the first place as it was meant to treat your neuro-muscular pain and it takes time for it to do so. Lonazep on the other hand is a more sedating drug so if you make a habit of taking lonazep you will find much more difficult in leaving it plus it would have no effect on your neuro-muscular pain. Please therefore consult a general physician as early as possible.

Dear lybrate-user, yes it will be because by now your brain is accustomed to this drug, by the way who prescibed this drug to you was it a psychiatrist or did you self medicate, another thing you have not mentioned the dose of zolpidem that you are taking so that if high it might be tapered down to suit your exam needs. Therefore you must consult a psychiatrist at the earliest. Yours sincerely.

Both of them have their own side effects.
Before using any medications please consult a doctor.
Both of the mentioned drugs might get habituated.
And please note that these drugs just increase your sleep but they doesn't relax your brain
(which is the main reason to sleep)
if you have prescription, use these drugs according to the prescription and do not increase or decrease the dose without consulting the doctor.
