I have been on ambien for 4 yrs. I know way too long....I am surely addicted to it and flip when I get close to empty. I am positive I have forgotten how to fall asleep without it. Be careful. I haven't driven, but I have eaten just grossly out of the jar while standing front of the fridge. To hear it told by my adult son - it was disgusting. How embarrasing. I have had colon surgery and have to wear adult diapers - are you getting a visual? I wanted to die the next day...
