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 economistian@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.
