I was taken off Ambien completely last week due to sleep walking. Was taking 5mg for about 6 months then psychiatrist upped it to 10mg about a month ago. I was tired at night but was always getting up to do something. I took our dog for a walk in the middle of the night, trimmed some trees and did yard work - activities I normally do not do at 11PM. When I finally figured out something was wrong was when I thanked my husband for taking down some vines that had been growing wildly. He said he didn't do it. I do not remember doing it. I guess I could call it sleep landscaping.

Have been on sleeping pills (Lunesta and Ambien) for about 7 years. Needless to say I'm having a heck of a time getting any sleep now. Fortunately I see the psychiatrist tomorrow.
