808425 tn?1371092328 I sympathize with you. The hardest days of my life (even though I'm hypo!) were the ones that I had to put dogs down. Dogs do end up in heaven...people, I'm not so sure. Dogs are just the embodiment of "good". Every dog I've ever had was the "best" dog I'd ever had...so was the next one and the next one. Get a new dog soon...it's a tribute to your last dog. I hate to live without them.
Avatar f tn all, that makes THE difference for me. I did take a low dose Ambien that I got from the dr the last time I was w/d. I have usually had to take diphenhydramine since forever to get sleep so I don't think I'll get hooked on the Ambien. It doesn't hug me like Oxy did. Anyway, I think I didn't kick last night, but I am typing this from my bed before getting up, so if I get up and see that the hubs has a fat lip or black eye, we'll know the RLS Ninja has returned.
2161407 tn?1337538702 t for everyone but I will tell you this was instrumental in my sleeping last night. In case anyone is curious or interested or feel it may help you, here's the link: http://www.learnoutloud.com/Audio-Books/Self-Development/Emotional-Development/Inner-Peace/24085 So I had a class reunion planning meeting last night that went until about 9. So much laughter because they all get so distracted and off topic and I'm constantly yelling at them like a school marm.
Avatar n tn If you are taking ambien too constantly, then your brain simply cannot sleep without it. With it, it sleeps like normal brain without ambien, which means that it could be addiction.Try not taking it for a week and then take 10mgs and see what happen.
323551 tn?1255174750 Entering 42nd hour of no trams and the anxiety is intense. Been pacing the hallways look o burn off some of these anxiety that even now my dogs are looking at me like i'm half crazed. I've taken 3 tabs of bendryl, 3 Ambien Cr's and abouf 2 mg of klonpin and I'm as awake as ever. But I will say this...I would rather stay clean from Tramadol and endure this for more few more nights as I know that soon shall to pass.
Avatar f tn Does anyone know a capable doctor in Florida who can help someone taper off of Ambien and Xanax - Tampa area?
Avatar f tn On the Topix site's ambien thread I kept reading about scripts for 5, 10 12MG, but never 20. I've been on the thread in regards to Ambien for months. It's huge. It started in 2006. Thousands of postings from lost souls trying to quit, posting in the wee hours, awake, unable to get to sleep. But there are also many posters like you happypill. There are millions more people who need the sleep and rest they get from Ambien. My mom was one of them.
Avatar n tn I take ambien as needed in small doses...i take a 5 mg pill and pop it in half and have been using it for over 10 years without a tolerence or any abuse...no side effects...i take it to sleep as i have chronic pain and take it most nights....can u try cutting ur dose but i really do not think this is your problem with the skin...r u using anything else?
501205 tn?1227345442 I couldnt sleep last night and took an ambien for the first time in awhile and I have to say those are bad pills. I always thought they were okay for me but I made the mistake of taking one and not going to bed right away and I have no recollection of what I did for the last half hour before bed. I was just reading my post to Courtney and I cant even remember typing it -- let alone what it said.
Avatar f tn I am really wondering how bad this is, because it is such a low dose. Im going to ask the dr tomorrow....I have researched and studied about ambien in pregnancy and there are no studies that it harms a baby at this low of a dose. If i was not pregnant, I would not even be questioning the drug because the one pill has always been enough for me and i dont have an issue with taking it forever if I have to.
Avatar f tn I have taken this medication before. It worked pretty well, as regular Ambien is formulated only to put you in the deep stages of sleep for about 4 hours, so usually (not all the time becuase of course everyone is defferent and responds differently) when you wake up in the morning you aren't all hung over like you are sometimes when you take like Benedryl or something. I was on it for a while, and then I changed doctors and he changed me to Trazodone.
Avatar m tn He asked me how I slept and I told him that to be honest for a year, I have not slept more than 5hours a night. I wake up at 3am like clock work. SO in shot, I do not sleep very well. He thought I would benefit greatly if I got regualr sleep for two weeks. He offered me Ambien, but said I could try over the counter stuff too if I didn't want that... In short he said that I needed to figure out a way to get regular sleep. Seeing as I don't like drugs...
Avatar m tn good glad I read that wrong, I do beleive that ambien messes up your memory or I am just old and that is partly true, I just hope you are taking the ambien under a Dr's care. It is so hard to function if you are not getting enough sleep. So I am hoping and praying for you.
Avatar n tn While I was in the office, I forgot to ask whether this new drug could interact with the Ambien, so I stopped taking the Ambien until I could see my doctor again. About a month went by in which I did not use Ambien at all. During this time, the abdominal pains gradually lessened over a period of weeks, and eventually disappeared.
Avatar f tn I've looked up a lot about ambien during pregnancy and I haven't found anything saying you shouldn't take it or that it'll harm the baby. Has anyone spoken to their doctor about ambien? I've had ambien prescription for years and it's really hard for me to sleep. No I'm not addicted, I used to take it only once or twice a week. It wasn't an every day thing. But it gets sooooo hard for me to sleep some nights so I'm wondering if it's safe.
491910 tn?1209366193 So once I came off of the xanax, I started supplementing ambien in place of it again, try to keep accountability of each and everyone. Only taking one at a time spread our throughout the day. I also started keeping a diary of how many I'd taken that day. I was doing pretty well the first few days, for me at least (30 mg spread throughout the day from the time I woke up, until the time I went to sleep. Then slowly but surely the daily dosage began going up again... 30mg... 50 mg...
Avatar n tn r u sure it is the ambien? it could be a mixture? all 3 drugs aggravate depression and out of the 3 ambien is categorized as the least addictive of the three drugs u r taking.....i would talk to my doctor and find another alternative for sleep....taking these every night could get u into trouble..have u tried the natural sleep aids like melatonin, valerian, etc?
870200 tn?1240459551 Does anybody hae any comments about ambien? That stuff is crazy.... when I take it I find myself calling people and having intense conversations but the next day I can't remember anything. I can't even remember going to bed. But if I don't take it I can't fall asleep...
Avatar f tn Where is your doctor in all of this? Did he give you a taper plan on the Elavil and Ambien?
Avatar f tn If you use it to help with withdrawals such as insomnia, that's what it sounds like you asking, you're only substituting another drug in place of the other(s) . Then again, it's probably worked as a 'bridge' for some people to make the withdrawal easier. But as mentioned above, it is addicting and often just prolongs the process more.
Avatar f tn Can the ambien I take every night slow the healing progress in my brain I'm 16 days off hydrocodone
10515800 tn?1419227034 I think that part has set in...
Avatar f tn I'm 16+2 my dr prescribed me ambien..I'm scared to take it as I've seen what it does to my mom...anyone not have bad side effects like sleep walking, sleep driving or hillucinating?
