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.
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.
