I haven't been able to sleep and my dr gave me two weeks of ambien 10mg to try as needed to see if it helps. I took it three times and I feel depressed. I wasn't in a depressed state prior to this. However, I understand this could just be a coincidence considering I am bipolar and depression comes on unexpectedly. So my question is could the ambien have triggered this? I don't see it as any side effects. It worked to help me sleep but now bc I'm having these obsessive thoughts it's causing this I'm afraid to take it. Thank you.
