I can never sleep regardless of what I do... and I was prescribed Ambien. That sh!t ain't cool. I don't like to hallucinate and drown leprechauns in my washing machine. Anyone taking anything that works worth a damn?

I was trying to go to sleep just now and I couldn't. FWIW, I really don't want to drink myself silly either or use Benzodiazepines. So far I have struck out on sleeping medications. Thorazine blows as well... so I will pass on it too.

I have the exact same problem. I went for about 3 days without sleeping once. It was so frustrating. I tried everything. All the "home remedies" did nothing. Trazadone gave me a migrain. Ambien made me hallucinate like crazy and I STILL couldn't sleep. (That's pretty cool, but didn't help my problem.) I'm still looking for something that helps.

BTW, If you have depression, you shouldn't take ambien, it makes it worse. Oh, and you should also not answer the phone after having taken ambien.

I guess I didn't help much. Sorry. I feel for ya.
