ambien has been known to do that, my instructor at school says that she used to take ambien and she would go and pee in the computer room and laugh at her daughter and crap about making her clean it up then go back to sleep and never remember it, if you want to sleep just take some melatonin

A Doctor once gave me ambien with oxycontin. I went four wheeler riding, and I have not been able to ride one of those in several years.
sounds like a good time.


i have been done the ambien and hated it. tried the lunesta also. take either of those for a couple nites and then dont take it and you end up with insomnia rebound. there is no free ride. any drug has worse side effects than what it is good for.

Id throw away that ambien in the first place.

Our guys used to get subscribed that all the time.

And the major side effects of ambien are Sleep walking, and violent and vivid dreams. Kind of the opposite that youd be looking for lol

But hey im not a med corps doc. So obviously he knows more than me

I have to ask, why do so many people have trouble sleeping? Most nights I sleep like a baby, if I do have problems one night I will be wrecked by the next one and sleep like a log. What causes you guys to not sleep so that I can stay away from it.

That reminds of why men make better friends....

A man woke up at 7 am to find his wife just getting home, she said that she had went out with friends got drunk and spent the night at one of the friends house. He called her 10 best friends and none of them said that she had stayed with them.

A woman woke up to find her husband walking in at 7 am. he said he had gone out with friends, got drunk, and spent the night at a friends house. She called his 10 best friends... 8 claimed that he indeed did spend the night at their house. The other two claimed he was still there.

I had bilateral knee replacements about three years ago. After surgery and the therapy kicks in, you may have trouble sleeping---you are not in pain, but you have trouble getting comfortable until your body gets used to the titanium and plastic.

Needless to say, after a bout a month of trying to tough it out, I saw my orthopedic surgeon; he prescribed Ambien. I begrudgingly took them---one night I had to get up and go to the bathroom, and I was stumbling around like a drunken sailor. My doc did take the time to mention that people had driven for hours while under the influence of the drug---it has that side effect. (Supposedly it has been documented that somebody drove from Cleveland to Columbus on them and woke up down there---and couldn't remember how they got there.)

To the best of my knowledge,I did drive anywhere---at least my wife said I didn't...

It is wicked and powerful..and, about the time I got off of them---I took them for ten days, Heath Ledger died when he OD'd on them.

I used to have a problem sleeping. Still have a hard time every now and then but I'm not really sure why. There used to be days I'd wake up at 4 in the morning and be up for 24+ hours no matter what I did/took. I've tried Melatonin, Tylenol PM, NyQuil, pretty much everything and it nothing helped. One day I went to bed at around 9:30-10:00 and have been on a regular sleeping schedule for the most part since then. I'm just hoping it never happens again because it was terrible having to deal with that.

I thought the proper gender for a spambot was 'it'.

OK, Ignas is gone. MTM Ford, Lovetruck's post was directed at a spammer, not you!
