    I started taking Lunesta but it leaves the most horrible aftertaste in my mouth and I made the mistake of taking it with V8Splash Strawberry Kiwi (my fav) and NOW I can't drink it anymore b/c it tastes like Lunesta! ICK!!


    Also I am not sleeping through the night like I am supposed to. I can go back to sleep easily but I am still waking up around 4.

    I took ambien for about 6 mths but I was only gettin about 4 hrs of sleep so I felt like shit all the time. I take restoril now which keeps me asleep at least 6 hrs a nite. Never had lunesta.

    see I used that in the hospital when I had my baby but they were whispering something about habit forming. UH whatever, just help me sleep!

    My daughter took Lunesta and she had horrible nightmares from it and one night she took it and she said everything in the house was moving. WOW. I took her off that so fast.

    I enjoy LMAO at Youtube videos of people who have taken Ambien. As a result, I would probably never try it myself.

    Regular Ambien was making my husband wake up at 2 or 3am. Ambien CR works much better and now he wakes up at around 4:30 or 5pm.


    There is no generic for Ambien CR.


    You might also try Costco's generic sleep aid. It is much cheaper and works well too.


    Hubby alternates the 2 meds. One stressful days he might take an ambien CR and then a few nights without any sleep aids and most of the time Costco sleep aid pills.

    My sister takes ambien and within 15 minutes shes slurring like a drunk and looking half in the bag. I LOL at her. Sometimes she'll take it then eat a snack and she falls asleep with food hangin out her mouth. I'd never take it

    I took Lunesta, Ambian (reg.), and I take Ambian CR now. The Lunesta was like waking up with a pile of metal in your mouth. Ambian reg. I had to take a lot of. Ambian CR works ok but I still don't sleep all night. The problem with both Ambians is I forget ALOT and I will wake up in the middle of the night and start doing things and I never remember. Hell I could be on here and have no memory of it. LOL

    I think I may have changed my mind and I DO want to try Ambien. Would someone like to come videotape babysit me?


    I love in the first Stan video (ya'll should check out part 2, too) where he is discussing how his robot bear arm is no longer able to gather electric from the carpet or whathefuckever and he is all disappointed and says "but it would be useful for writing". LMAO
