Follow-Up:

I have had several episodes with Ambien. I see people in my room. I get up and eat in and find the kitchen a mess the next morning. I clean out bathroom drawers. I went in my sons room and showed him containers one night about 2AM and asked him if he knew where any more containers were, because I was cleaning out. He thought I was nuts. He just looked at me and said that I needed to go to bed, that it was the middle of the night. I have talked to my family after taking this drug and called one son superman and the other batman. They thought I should try smoking pot instead, because I was so funny. I want to quit taking it, but I like the relaxed feeling I get when I take it. My memory is horrible now. I used to have a great memory. I can't stop taking it. I try, but then I get up and take it after one night without it. I go through withdrawals. It is terrible. I want off the stuff, but can't quit. I would love help with any suggestions for how to sleep without if, or do you finally get back into a sleep pattern without it after getting clean of the stuff. Oh yea, I did have sex one night with my husband and rubbed oil all over him, and don't remember doing it. He hates oil and being slippery.
