Ambien CR

I have been on Ambien CR for three to four years. I have tried many times to get off of it with no success. They say it is non-additive, but I don’t believe it. Some have said that instead, it is habbit forming. Habit forming or additive, whichever, it is all the same to me. It is though I have been trapped by the medical community, Dr. Haynes (sleep specialist) in particular. I realize that their original intentions may have come accross as trying to help, yet on the darker side, it is all about the money. The doctor gets you hooked, the drug company is guarnteed to make money, as well as the doctor is assured of repeat business against the patient’s will. What more could these people ask for. I am not saying that ambien is bad in and of itself, it is just that I want to use it on my terms; that is to say that if I want to take two of them in a single night, who the hell is the fucking DEA to say otherwise. The tolorence can become so great that taking ambien is like taking nothing at all. But dare to go without it, and you could risk a heart attack according to my pharmacist, because doing without this addidictive drug (ambien) increases heart rate and increases anxiety, etc. When I take ambien, I become more of a compulsive eater late at night, making me fatter that ever. I feel life is not worth living anymore. My wife seems to care, but she really doesn’t understand, so I am totally alone in this.I suppose the only real revenge I can achieve regarding ambien is to check out with the whole lot of them as my last and final friend.
