All I can tell you is that Ambien had a freaky effect on me. I tried it for about 3 nights, then gave it up. I did things while on the Ambien that I didn't recall the following day.

Have you considered Valerian tea or Chamomile tea instead of sleeping pills?

Teas that can make you sleepy:

Chamomile
Lavender
Valerian Root
Peppermit
Kava Kava
Lemon Balm
St John's Wort
Chinese Herbs
Celestial Seasonings: Sleepytime Tea
Spearamint
Lemon Grass
Tilia Flowers
Blackberry Leaves
Orange Blossoms
Hawthorne Berries
Rosebuds
Stevia Leaf
Licorice Root
Rose Hip
Skullcap Leaf
Cardamom
Passion Flower
Bigelow Sweet Dreams Tea

Stop taking your sleeping pills and switch to a tea instead. Teas are natural sleep inducers with no side effects. Studies show that teas are healthier, safer alternatives to falling asleep than sleeping pills. Big Pharma is evil. Stay away from opioids and sleeping pills.

Here's one of the studies done: http://online.liebertpub.com/doi/pdf...act.2012.18310
