“I found that just a nibble of about 2-3mg of the 10mg tabs worked about 90% of the time”
“Zolpidem makes me sleep better compared to Zopiclone.”
Negative and mixed experiences
“Ambien - just weird. Felt like I was drunk when I would wake up in the middle of the night to pee.”
“I have permanent brain damage from taking it for 6 months (a year ago), I now have worse insomnia than I did before, it's insanely hard for me to fall asleep. Also my memory has gone to shit since.”
“Works great at inducing drowsiness. Doesn't seem to give very restful sleep, but not bad...it makes me act drunk, so about half the time I'll just go to sleep like I planned, and the other half I'll get up and stumble around.”
“I took one Ambien, 50mg of Doxylamine and 3mg of Melatonin one night and was still unable to sleep.”
“I was given a trial of zolpidem (Ambien) a few years ago and it didn't do much for me. My body quickly built a tolerance for it after four or five days.”
“I've been perscribed large doeses of Ambien, restoral(or however you spell that) Klonopin, multiple others etc for sleep but none worked and again just made me stay up longer.”
