Experiences with

Ambien

Anyone have experience with the controlled release ambien after using regular ambien? Since it releases it over time is it less effective?

I've been on Ambien for years. I first started taking it when I was having other health issues. I also just had started taking medicine for my thyroid, which I also think played a part. I wouldn't have taken it if I knew how addicting it was. I can't sleep without it.

Has anyone else had this happen to them, or did the manufacturer play dirty trick on me and lace it with Ambien?

Can you beat an ambien addiction ? i have all the classic signs, yet i’m terrified try to sleep without it

I have ambien for sleep. I don't know HOW to get past this. She died on a full moon, so every full moon I'm reminded. My dr. has tired me on a variety of different meds but even this combination isn't working. This is not LIFE. I'm soon to be 68.

The Xanax, Ambien, and pregabalin and all other natural supplements are no longer able to provide me with more than 3 to 4 hours sleep now. Therefore I need more information for kind of kratom which can be effective to relieve insomnia. Besides, I am taking 15 mg ER oxycontin for my RLS.

Now my Psy has me on Ambien 10 mg. But I still can’t sleep. I go to see my Psy in the morning and hopefully he has something else or a higher dose for me or I don’t know what to do Any suggestions would really help a bunch….[/i]

So I can count on this pain for at least an hour after I go to the bathroom each day and most likely it will occur again at night before I have to go to sleep which makes them difficult to sleep as well without taking Ambien or other things.  This problem has destroyed my life.

I'm better the next day or if I take an ambien. Does anyone else experience this? Is it even OCD? I've asked three doctors and they don't know.

Somehow Ambien, Klonopin, and Xanax don't help with my insomnia. This is the only place which comes to rescue with difficulties. Thanks to all of you.

The arduous journey back is always an “Ambien Blur “ meaning that I drug myself…as it takes over 24 hrs between waiting for flights and flying… but surprisingly not so bad when you have a valiant husband who moves seats so that I could mostly lie down flat across 3 seats and was very grateful to him

I'm a hypermetabolizer of both Remeron (which I'm on) and Ambien in both normal and cr forms (which I'm on). Sleep is horrible and I was hoping Belsomra I wouldn't be a hypermetabolizer and could actually sleep.

It happened several times in row before falling asleep last night, I had to take an ambien to get thru it. Tonight, there was no hope, which is why I’m writing this at 2 AM. Can someone please offer me some help if they’ve heard of this before? I’m assuming it’s anxiety, but I, not sure.

I have tired with no luck, (ambien, tramadol, melatonin, benadryl, xanax, and ativan).

I was also taking anti anxiety meds and ambien for sleep for a while to relax and I stopped all that cold turkey I thought maybe those drugs were screwing up my stomach but I can’t stop thinking about this anyone who reads this and responds I appreciate it I know it’s a very long message lol

I have been taking Ambien CR 6.25 every night for the past year. Could that be contributing to the memory loss? I am 44.

I am currently on xanax daily 1.5 mg for anxiety and lamictal for depression 300 mg and ambien for sleeping 10 mg. I still struggle like all of us but for me this has been the best combination or at least I'm stable to a point. We all know it's a lot of combination experimenting.

., Ambien) for 12 years. Last spring my doctor cut off my prescription without discussion. Around the same time my brother's doctor cut his prescription from 10mg to 5mg without discussion.
