Are liquid sleeping remedies such as Nytol as addictive as sleeping pills?
I think they can by psychologically addictive. I’ve had problems sleeping since a family member died and did become what I would call addicted to Nytol. Someone else here said they are herbal, there are herbal variations but the ‘normal’ ones are chemically based. How I got off them was first I tried homeopathic ones (you can get them from Boots – Boots own brand or Ainsworths). I found them to be not so strong, so still had some problems sleeping. Then I went cold turkey. It took a while but now I can sleep ok. I really wouldn’t recommend takingn them long term, I think they can become addictive. Brazil nuts, bananas contain seratonin which is a natural sleep aid, or as someone else said 5htp which you can get from Higher Nature (google them). Good luck and good sleeping!
