: I am a college student, and my room-mate told
: me that a couple a weeks ago I was up walking around at night and and asking questions which didn't make sense, but didn't remember the next morning. What happened was I took the normal 10mg of Ambien, and against better judgment, took 10-20 more mg. At these higher doses, has anyone experiencd "sleep-walking" episodes on Abmien or any other drug for insomnia. I would like to know, because I am concerned it was just me: email me at: wstevens23@excite.com

I'm not sure if I sleepwalk, have temporary amnesia or both.I often get up without remembering it on ambien. Somtimes I know I "slept" with my wife just before I dosed off 30-60 minutes, vaguely remember it was good but can't remember much else. It sort of blacks me out. My wife said itseems like I'm not really awake when I get up later, I think it probably is sleep-induced sleep walking.
