Taking Ambien. I'd never sleep again though because of my other meds.

Does the Ambien work for you? Does it have negatives for you? Have you tried other stuff? Husband, son, and i all tried it and hated it. Husband now uses trazadone. I use CBN. Son worked to improve his general health.

Yes it works, the side effects are amazing. I have a friend who decoupaged her dishwasher with New York City subway maps on it, and I myself catfished a prominent white supremacist into sending me penis pictures and then hosted a spontaneous antifa meeting discussing it. You really get disinhibited.

My son stumbled downstairs and outside in an ice storm wearing only pajama pants.

I think one day it might be pulled from the market. It also affects memory. But I wouldn't sleep for years without it. Hope your son was ok.

Agree. I talked to a guy a few years ago at a cannabis convention who thought cbn would be the next big sleep med after rescheduling. It was a good experience with the kid. We thought he was using illegal drugs, so finding out that he took 30 Ambien in 10 days was helpful.

That must have been WILD.

Do you get crazy dreams? I sleep fine but almost never dream, and heard. Ambien gives you wild dreams and have always wanted to take it specifically for the dreams lol

[โ€“] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

It's not so much the dreams, it's the loony things I do on it. One night I hosted a whole antifa meeting in my group where we talked extensively about a very famous white supremacist we catfished into sending me penis pictures and I was high as a kite the whole time.
