muscle relaxers

i saw a post on facebook earlier and it just made me kind of curious, does anyone else regularly take muscle relaxers? (not seeking advice, cause i know it’s super different for everyone anyways.) i have had docs that are super afraid to prescribe them, but i’ve found that taking muscle relaxers daily barely takes the edge off the constant tension/dystonia. is there something else ppl prefer to muscle relaxers? and those who take them, which ones worked for you? sometimes i feel like i’m just using them as a security blanket, and they don’t do anything at all.
