Like so many others I suffer from Insomnia. Insomnia so bad that even when I take my Ambien, I wake up in the middle of the night. I have not fallen sleep on my own for 9 years now, but I'm not here to talk about my insomnia.

I want to discuss what happens when you take an Ambien. Anyone who calls me at night after 8pm, the first thing they ask is "Did you take your pill yet?" If I answer yes they immediately hang up.

I have said some pretty strange things while under the influence (so they say) and to be honest I deny I did because a lot of it was quite embarrassing. The scary part, I don't remember any of it. While under the influence I've text messaged "gibberish". I'm talking words that make no sense what so ever. Then there was sleep shopping, for example: I bid on a Coach Dog Carrier on EBay. The amount I paid for it I could have made two car payments. So, have I learned my lesson, well kind of, I still sleep with my phone on but I totally removed my laptop from my bedroom. I know I'm not the only one out there, anyone else have a story to share?
