: I have a very bad problem with restless leg and just plain old insomnia and my doctor prescribed ambien. Now I can't sleep at all without it!! I sometimes take one and one half to sleep through the night. so I sometimes end up without enough to get me through the month. THEN I FREAK!! I tried to do without it for a couple weeks and I truely did not sleep (only napped) for two straight weeks.. Can someone help?
DIANA BE VERY CAREFUL WITH THAT STUFF. I WAS ALSO HOOKED. SHOULD HAVE CHECKED MYSELF IN. WENT 10 DAYS WITHOUT ANY SLEEP TO GET OFF AMBIEN. YOU SHOULD TAPPER OFF WITH ANOTHER DRUG BUT DO NOT GO OFF COLD TURKY LIKE I DID. USE HERBS AND OVER-THE COUNTER MEDS ALSO. AFTER THE INITIAL 10 DAYS I GOT VERY LITTLE SLEEP FOR AT LEAST 3 MONTHS. IT TOOK ME 2 YEARS TO SLEEP 6 HOURS A NIGHT AND I STILL HAVE SOME BAD NIGHTS. THINKING ABOUT YOU
