Hello, July:

By "Ambein" I assume you mean Ambien. I had heard it would take you down the road of no return, was extremely distraught, pushed to the brink, told myself let's DO IT and took an overdose with a glass of wine; I got a good night's sleep, that was it. The following day, at dusk, it made me hallucinate for the first time in my life: I saw strange animals, gigantic doors ... That stuff is nasty; I believe it was giving me suicidal thoughts all along. I stopped taking it a year ago, and feel better. I hope you will discuss it with your doctor; if you have problems sleeping, there are plenty of other things out there that will do the job without the terrible side effects of Ambien.

In any event, please let us know what happens. You seem to be singing the same song I was singing for many, many years.

Tom
