My pdoc had me on 12 mgs Ambien and then added 300mgs of Seroquel. I take Lamictal at suppertime. With the Ambien and Seroquel together I was completely unconscious. It took weeks to realize that I was sleepwalking and sleep eating before I went to bed. I don't know how I ever even made it upstairs to bed. Pdoc cut the Seroquel in half and then next split the Ambien. That still knocked me out and I woke up totally drugged. Now I take a microscopic piece of Ambien along with the Seroquel. I sleep like a rock and I'm still drugged when I wake up in the morning. I hate taking these meds, but I hate lying sleepless in bed for hours even more. I gave that nearly invisible piece of Ambien twice; both times I had a hard time falling asleep. Since taking the drugs I've gained alot of weight, and I have a horrible, dry, metallic taste in my mouth twenty four hours a day.
