So last night i took a double dose of my sleeping meds which iv only had now for a month or so. The medication is called Zolpidem aka Ambien. I took two 10 milligram pills at around 10 pm. What occured in the next few hours are a mystery to me, i completely blacked out. Well during the course of that time i ate shit Really bad. Theres chunks of flesh missing on my left hand, both my knees are skinned and brusied, both my elbos are bruised to the point where i cant bend them out. Theres a big scrape on my fore head and a visible lump on the top of my head.Plus there is significant brusing on my lower back, like big time. And to top it all off there was dirt in my mouth and i lost a 180 frickin dollar jacket!! But at least some good citizen brought me my wallet this morning. I couldnt have gotten very far last night because he said he found it right down the street.
Now this isnt the first time iv taken this medication and woken up with injuries, but this is by far the worst iv sustained so far. What really pisses me off is that i genuinely need this stuff and i cant smoke herb any more for a good 3 months(ill give u one guess why). Please does any one know of an alternative medication that i could talk to my doc about?? Iv already tryed alll the over the counter stuff and dont recomend pot becuase i cant use it. Thanks and :peace:

When I went to sleep away camp there was this girl there who had insomnia. She took some sleep aid and it made her like a zombie. She walked around half conscious, one time she actually picked up this frog and popped it into her mouth! She just let it chill in her mouth for a bit until her friend who was babysitting her made her take it out, it was so strange. She never remembered anything she did either. Be careful with that stuff man.

I totally forgot about Marinol, but i think the conditions of my treatment program(Diversion for a Fuck up,that as far as ill go)would not allow me to take it. I have to maintain complete sobriety, but then again there is a self professed Opiate addict there who is prescribed opiates and they dont stop him..
I found some txt messages i sent last night while under the influence of this stuff, none of these are made up. "We gova arn the baps da ful down". This ones even more bizare,"4 inw thats wat 4m thioi g4 ps6o" I actually sent that 2 one of my friends... Now the last one is sorta discipherable, i think i know wat i was saying with this one "Mann WWWYED!"
Iv tryed melatonin b4 and it does diddily squat!

Damn, that sux...

Me and my buddies used to do Ambien while we drank excessively, not recommended! But when ur in the marines, they give u pills for everything... Had some crazy nights that I don't remember as well.

Try Tylenol PM maybe? Or some Nyquil? That stuff always puts me out, I just smoke a bowl of some Indica when I wanna sleep, too bad u can't.

I took that shit once mistaking it for benedryl...

I had to ride my bike to work... ** about 4-5 miles away from my house**

I get about 3 miles from my house, and it hit me... ** TUNNEL VISION, loss of hearing, and it felt like i was in a time lapse film...**

I fell off my bike thinking i had a flat tire... ** not flat at all... I just fell for no reason**

I grabbed my crotch and gave the Finger to a schoolbus full of nun's ** dunno why**

needless to say... I didn't make it to work that day...

Take 1 regular strength Advil with 1 regular strength Tylenol. Or any ibuprofen with acetaminophen, it will put you to sleep. The pharmacist recommended this to me one night when I could not sleep because of a toothache.

Well like i stated earlyr i cant smoke for a bit, so stop telling me to burn a bowl n what not. I cant take Nyquil either because it contains alcohol. Altho Nyquil would work....I think taking an advil with a tylenol was recommended because of the tooth ach not the restlesness, maybe im wrong tho. Iv made an appointment with my Doctor but he cant see me till monday :( Iv heard they designed this stuff to be non habit forming and boy did they get that one right! I dont want to take this shit ever again. It does put me to sleep, but if you dont get to bed fast enough it puts the user in an undescribable trance like state. I wish i could just smoke freely so i wouldnt need a prescription for some thing...

My partner uses Sleepinol. It is over the counter and he says that it works for him better than Ambien has ever worked for him.

Mixing Tylenol with Advil might have been recommended for my toothache, but it sure puts me to sleep!

Some people are easily succeptable to ambien's side effect of people essentially "sleep walking" (I don't know the technical term for the real effect). But people will do, just as you have shown, crazy shit that they don't remember on it.

I never had a problem with this, but them again, ambien doesn't put me to sleep. Try talking to your doctor to get your sleeping medicine changed. Or take a couple shots of hard alcohol before (right before) you go to bed.
