I took Ambien when I was travelling in the U.S., because I didn't count right and left me short some Restoril. So I used my travel insurance for the Ambien. My Prozac, Seroquel, Zyprexa, and clonazepam leave me a bit nervous towards bed time, and the Ambien worked *excellent*. I took it for about a week and a half. Ambien and benzo drugs can 'disorient' you at first, but the docs should start low and then move up. You eventually lose any (if you have any) 'disorienting' thoughts. These drugs work MARVELS for me, and without them I doubt I'd be able to function and have a career. This is 'sensationalist journalism'. First off, you don't just pop a pill without making any consideration for the seriousness of it's side effects. Likely, this woman's sleeplessness was a symptom of something else, like depression or anxiety. Ambien does *not* treat these disorders.
