> Ambien is a sleeping medication - my ex and I have both taken it and it seems to really knock you out but doesn't cause much morning-grogginess (unless you try to get up before 8 hours or so!) I wouldn't want to take it long-term, but for the first couple weeks it was useful.
My normal sleep pattern is 6-7 hours tops. Bad habit I picked up in the service many years ago. I would be willing to try it. Will read alittle more about it. I'm luck if I get 8 hours of sleep in 3 days! Ahh, sleep. Forgot what it feels like to sleep a solid few hours. I do not want to take Klonopin, as suggested by my Doctor. Nor, do I want to get back on Nortryptilyne. I just want one pill. That's all. I Refuse to go back on 2-3 tabs of different medications to keep me functioning normally. Guess, I'll have to just deal with some discomforts for now.
