I was reading your posts from 1am. yuck. i hope you got some sleep. that is the worst!!! hope your ok today--:) fire
Reddog,
I do hope you are sleeping. People wrote to you based on their experiences, you shouldn't let anything scare you. Two things, if you don't like it call your doctor today, yes on Sunday, see what else he suggests.
For GODS sake never mix alcohol with anything you are taking. You know this.
If he told you to take 100 mg, then try that tonight.
Ambien does to me what Trazodone does to cowgirl. It has the opposite effect on me. I wake up too soon way too soon, and it just didn't give me the deep sleep I needed.
You just need to be patient, try headphones, with soothing sounds, I still do this, the CD's with ocean waves, my favorite Thunderstorms, with the fan blowing on me, cold room, a ton of quilts on top. Make your bedroom as pleasant as possible. They say shouldn't watch TV before retiring. Get up and walk around in the quiet of the night.
