Fantastic
I've tried every single other thing from yoga to bashing myself over the head with a mallet
They say when you stop it feels better.... j/k
and ambien allows me to have a normal life, more or less.
I take 15mg/nite.
That’s not so surprising, maybe, but I do this unbelieveably strange thing sometimes when I wake up and I’m talking in my sleep—and even though I’m awake enough to register that I’ve just awakened myself by talking out loud, I can’t stop talking. What I’m saying is actually fairly to completely logical, at least in English syntax instead of dream-babble, but I’m absolutely unable to STOP talking until I reach the end of the sentence—which can be pretty complicated, lots of clauses and so on. And while I’m laying there talking away, I really don’t know what is going to come out of my mouth next. It’s like I’m channeling my dream-self!!! Has anyone else had this experience?
I might not have had the exact experience, and it may not be just the Ambien I take, but yes -- on numerous occasions I have found myself trying to tell a thing/person something like I'm trying to set a dream straight and end it on my side. I know I'm awake or nearly so. I don't know if I'm actually uttering anything, I've never tape recorded it :) But it is a curious phenomenon. Harmless but interesting.
cheers
