If you've got to go with pills for a trip, try Melatonin. It works much better and is much healthier than a synthetic drug. Melatonin is more organic and is something more natural than Ambien. I've been on Ambien for over 2 years now. It is extremely addictive if taken for long periods of time AND most doctors that really care about you would only prescribe enough for you to take 10 mg a day if you want it to last 30 days.

ambien is so much fun haha.

I railed 75mg over the course of the afternoon once and I was GONE. I was like, "yeah, I'll be fine to go to probation like this", so I got on the subway to go there and was tripping so hard that I didn't regain awareness of my surroundings until I was in the middle of brooklyn (probation was in downtown manhattan).

After I realized going to probation wasn't the smartest idea, I took the train back to my apartment; but it was dark and raining when I got there and I was so amazed by the kaleidoscopic patterns caused by light refracting through the water droplets on my glasses that it took me 2 hours to walk the 3 blocks home because I kept going in the wrong directions; and all 6 times I realized I was lost, I walked to the nearest deli and just bought beer (no i.d.) with no hassles.

The next day I woke up next to a backpack filled with 40 oz's and 22's, a general sense of "WTF just happened", and no cigs. So I walked to one of the deli's I visited the night before to get a pack of cigs, and, of course, they wouldn't sell them to me because I didn't have my i.d. with me (I'm 20).
All in all, a fun time. =D

I'd say that you'll have just as much fun off of 20mg as you will off of more. I didn't really feel that the effects got stronger as I took more pills, they just lasted longer and disoriented me to a greater degree.

If you have more pills I'd say use them to prolong the experience or save them for another time.

So ia just took another one and nothing yet.......should I have snorted it or what....how long till this shit kicks in????????
Well, since you're using it for unintended purposes, I don't think you'll get the effect that you are expecting. You know it's working when you fall asleep! Doesn't take a genius to figure that out.

You need to make sure you drink plenty of water too, so that your liver and kidneys flush well. Ambien is very hard on your internal organs when it is used for purposes other than intended.

Don't take more. Ambien has a nasty habit of making you very compulsive in regards to everything but especially dosing. You won't get any more effects but blacking out and perhaps sleep walking or sleep driving.

ambien...sometimes it works. Sometimes it works to well. Sometimes it takes a loooong time to work. Other times it just doesn't seem to work. Thankfully I am not one of those that go online and buys stuff after taking it. What I do do thouh is well, very embarassing. I call people at 3 am. Rambling on about whatever it was. Hell I don't remember. I've told my mom and sister things I wish I could take back. I know there is a lttle weirdness there now. I text and call my wowastelaka. When we first met I was not taking the stuff. But as I started taking it the calls and text became more frequent and stranger. Gotta say she must really love me to stick around with all that. I don't remember everything, but some things I've said probably wernt good. I love ambien besides these things. I've only been taking it a few months but have many many stories about me on ambien. Sometimes I'll go to bed with say...15 pills left in my bottle. I take 1 so there should be 14 when I wake up. But instead I wake up to see I only have 6 or so. With no recal of taking all those extra ones. its werid. I like it. It does get me to sleep. But its that part about what happens after you take it but before you get to bed. as I am on ambien right now, I'm, not sure if this post will make much sense. But I'k trying. maybe sometime during the day I will try to clear my thoughts up on this a little better

You guys actually get something from ambien? It's never given me a buzz or effected me at all and my doctor tried doubling the dose 2 times before he finally gave up. Thats kind of odd, I wonder why it doesnt effect me. My buddy who i gave the last script to said they messed him up but i didnt really believe him and thought he must of been imagining it.Strange

Well that was me then. This is me now. I took my nightly pill and got in bed. I remember being in bed. How I was lying. What was on tv. I could tell I was falling asleep. The next thing I know the airbag is in my face and I'm thinking "hm....the airbag is pretty comfortable." Then I think, wait, why the fuck is an airbag in my face!?
I had somehow got in my car and made it about 2 miles down the raod before crashing into a pole at 2:30 in the am. Thankfully I did not kill or hurt anyone. My car was totalled though.
I can still remember the moments after the cops got to the scene. I kinda snapped into reality just for a few minutes. They asked me if I had been drinking. That was an easy one. I don't drink. Not because I choose not to but because I'm seriously allergic to alcohol.
The very next question asked of me was have you been taking ambien. I remember thinking well, I'm sure they are going to test me so there is no reason to lie. I told them I had earlier in the day but that I was sure I had slept off all the effects. They did a quick sobriety test on me then let me go home.
When I woke up the next morning I could hardly believe what had happened to me. I think if it wernt for the reckless driving ticket and the info on where my car had been taken to I would have assumed it all a very bad dream.
I have always been a safe driver. Never any accidents or tickets. Several times I had gone out on ambien to get something but always had pressence of mind to NOT drive. This time, I don't know what happened. I truly don't remember getting in my car. I don't remember crashing. I just remember waking up to an airbag.
The several weeks following were awful as the semester had JUST started that day. Not to mention that I rely on a car for everything else from getting grocerys to getting to a laundrymat.
This has been a very long and at least embarassing lesson and at most a costly lesson. After everything was said and done it cost me about 10 thousand.
I have a new car now. And a fresh box full of unisom. At least with unisom I do not go wondering around doing stupid shit. It doesn't always work well. And sometimes I wake up feeling lousy. But it's better than waking up with an airbag in my face.
This all happened almost 2 months ago. I like my new car. Even more than my old one I think. But I hate everytime I see it. It reminds me of what happened. And I hate looking at my computer chair. Where I was sitting when I took the ambien. I had only 1 left and was still a week out from getting a refill. I debated taking it that night. I decided I should since the next day would be the first day of one of my early morning classes. I wanted to have a good night of sleep.
I still remeber making that decision. Opening the bottle. Opening the bottle of water to take it. Getting in bed. Then waking up to a nightmare.
I wish ambien did not have those side effects. Because when it did work it was like a miracle drug. But after that night I know I will never take it again.

A quick edit. I did not take it to get high. I took it because I have seriously bad sleeping problems. It was perscribed to me by a doc. Maybe if I had full time supervision I could take it. But living on my own without a full time babysitter...no way.
