If you take Ambien and one glass of wine, you will definitely forget the wild stuff you did that night. That stuff is almost like a ruffi. Not that I know what that is like personally. I heard about it. I mean read about it in books. I mean I was told about it. Yeah, one of those.

i've only taken ambien once. i was in antarctica, and it was the dead of winter and i hadn't slept very well in about a month. a friend of mine had some ambien and he gave me one. everyone told me that i should just go to bed, but i thought that i should go down the hall to my friend's room instead. all i remember is 2 of my friends playing scrabble and the rest of us were eating those NASTY bertie bott's jelly bellies - the ones that were puke and grass and sardine flavored. what we did was feed one to the person next to us and they had to guess what flavor it was.they all tasted good to me, sadly. the next day someone told me that i had eaten a vomit one by my own choice - and that i apparently was saying how good it tasted, trying to get others to eat it. no one did.i never took ambien again.however now i drink tea with valerian root in it. and it works fabulously.

I had a friend who had a conversation with a group of vagrants in her kitchen, only realizing much later, they weren't there at all. She left some fruity message on my voicemail talking about "Bobby", and she was laughing and chatting it up with them, while trying to leave me a very important message about something one of them said.

Haha... anybody notice that it feels like you're walking on the moon when you take ambien?

It already has. I can't cite the case because I was browsing the Internet, but a woman murdered her mother while asleep on Ambien. She was acquited, and the judge called it a case of, "Involuntary intoxication." Phew, that's some mean s**t.

I fell asleep (I thought) at my boyfriend's house but woke up the next morning at home. I knew something was amiss. Sent two emails before getting one back from him that floored me. My behavior that night was bizarre and volatile. He does not believe it was the Lunesta I took for the first time. He said he believes I meant the things I said to him and no longer wants to see me. I am crushed. You can HAVE THIS s**t. Where's a lawyer. . . .
