Note on Suicide
Sadly, visitors often find this site in a state of suicidal depression, and we have lost several readers along the way. If you are feeling depressed and suicidal, *please* do not do it. Your life is meaningful and important to many people, including me. In the U.S., call 1-800-273-8255 National Suicide Prevention Lifeline, visit contactwecare.org, or email me, David. (dpetersen@gmail.com). Suicide is a long term solution to a short term problem. No matter how bad you feel today, there is a very high chance that you will feel better (normal, even) in the future. In fact, it's likely that you are depressed because your sleep cycles are so damaged. New, credible studies are showing that there is virtually no chemical difference between depression and sleep deprivation. They are virtually the same thing. Instead of killing yourself, try changing your life. Research sleep strategies, start working out, find a hobby you are passionate about, and things will get better. I promise. About AmbienOverdose.org: This began as a relatively short article that offered basic information on the drug. Thanks to a constant stream of user comments documenting Ambien experiences good and bad, the site has become a valuable repository of information on experiences people have had with Ambien. If you have something you'd like to share, please do. All stories on AmbienOverdose.org are written, posted, and owned by our visitors. We cannot verify truthfulness or accuracy in them.

any information you can provide me on the ambien and sleepwalking. My goddaghter’s father has been taking ambien since it came out, recently he took ambien and can’t remember the remainder of the day until he awoke in the hospital. What he doesn’t remember is his inlaws gave dropped his daughter back home for him to care for, he took a gun and started shooting outside at his dog, he walked and purchased beer — he doesn’t remember any of this other than taking the ambien and then was in the hospital — apparently he remembers taking 1 ambien and then another one 1 hr later — when we found the bottle it appears he may have taken more which he states he only took two — needless to say he is facing criminal charges and may never see his baby daughter again.
We need whatever information out there for him. When he found out what happened he broke down crying because he has no recollection. Please help.
I am trying to find some information myself on Ambien CR 12.5. I feel like I may have taken 2 tonight by mistake. If anything weird happens I will try to get back to you.
I wish I had some information to pass on to you. All I can do is pray for your Goddaughter’s father. Maybe someone will be able to help with the information you need.

I thought I was loosing my mind!! I woke up one morning last year to find an empty bag of Doritoes and and a half empty glass of Pepsi on the table next to my bed. Another time I woke up in the morning and there was one of my long sleeve flannel shirts all buttoned up and folded into a neat little square on the bed next to me. I had no recollection of doing these things, none whatsoever! One night at around 2:00 in the morning I found myself on my ‘backside’ on the floor in my office which is just across the hall from my bedroom. I must have tried to sit down at my desk and missed my desk chair, and ended up on the floor. This woke me up and I couldn’t remember how I got into my office. I had a huge bruise on my tailbone as a result of this mishap. One day about a week later I was sitting in my Lazy-Boy chair watching tv. I have this little gold filagree butterfly necklace that I wear on a gold chain around my neck. As I took the butterfly in my hand to meditate (I use it as a “calming token”) I noticed it didn’t feel right. I looked at it and it wasn’t the butterfly, it was my little gold Woodstock charm, and it was on a different gold chain too!! I freaked out, where the heck was my butterfly, and how did this get on my neck??? Eventually I found my butterfly necklace under the blankets near the foot of my bed. And eventually, after thinking I was losing my mind, I found out that I was sleepwalking while under the influence of Ambien CR. This stuff should be taken off the market. People have been known to get in their cars and drive while sleepwalking because of this drug.
cry me a river sister. wah fuckin’ wah.
As I sit here typing this comment i have already taken my ambien about 45 minutes ago. If I do not lay down right after taking it i am bacically wide awake , or so i think….
I wont remember typing this post. If my mom is unfortunate enough to get one of my Ambien call similar to “DRUNK DIALING” I will not remember what i said but she says its always somethig “SOOO IMPORTANT”" , now, once i do stop trying to type which im sure im making a few mistake the screen is kinda blurry, I will go outside smoke a ciggarette. Then I will crawl in bed slepp till about 2:30 or 3 and zig zag into my kitchen and eat anything that i can find. Now, this I dont remember either but my husband has seen it, and when he doesnt catch me getting out of bed he finds the evidence in the morning such as cookie crumbs, dropped candy, and Krispie Kremes washed in the sink…yep washed in the sink. How can something knock you out so hard, but if i dont lay down i’m sitting here doing this, but will have no memory of it?? Anybody else, or am i the only one who can semi-focus on ambien
I just recently had an episode in which, after a bit of a stressful afternoon, I decided I needed to go to bed a bit eariler, and so took my Ambien, Unfortunately, I felt like it wasn’t working, after looking at the clock for a while, and unbeknownst to me, took some more. I remember trying to talk to my family – then remember walking up in the hospital with a breathing tube down my throat – being accused to attempting to take me life. Try getting that removed from your medical records. What a mess. I have done the eating in the middle of the night things, once sleeping with an ice cream bar, and making strange phone calls. Now after this very tramatic event (and being afraid to even go to sleep now), It certainly is “World Beware”.
Unfortunately I had a very bad scenario. I have had two DUI accidents in 2 weeks. I have never been in trouble before and to wake up in jail is definitely a huge shock. Both times I only made it a few houses away from mine and side swiped cars. Luckily no one was injured. But the 2nd accident totalled my car. I don’t remember any of it. Please, do not take Ambien. It has basically has caused a huge nightmare for me and my family.
what was the outcome of waking up in jail?
Has this been judicated yet? Please reply.I have a similar problem with ambien cr only I didn’t total my car
I was looking on the web for some particular lethal dosages but haven’t found any, so the best would be, I think, just take alcohol bottle on the night and in the morning swallow ~20 pills before the last sleep. This should work fine, I hope. I will be back here to let you know if I will stay alive after this.

I recently took 60 ambien crs in attempt to kill myself. I swallowed the 60 pills with a pint of alcohol. Unfortunately, I woke up. To make it even worse, I woke up in a strange city in a shit hole of a hospital. So next time…. I’ll try 100 or more with all the other dope I have accumulated in pill form all at the same time. and I’ll try a liter of alcohol next time. I don’t expect to see this web site again. If for some reason I do, I’ll let you know that you just may as well blow your fucking brains out. While I was trying to kill myself the easier softer way, someone I used to work with killed herself with 1 try. A shot gun blast in the mouth. Blew half her fuckin’ head off. And by the way….she’s dead.
