In reply to Zolpidem (Ambien) 'miraculous' for brain-damage, posted by hyperfocus on September 2, 2011, at 13:05:21
Ambien was the first sleep med I ever tried many years ago. It did the weirdest thing with me. it pepped me up fairly soon after first putting me to sleep. A couple hours of sleep and then wide awake, more awake than I would have been with the normal insomnia I was dealing with. I could never understand it being called a sleeping pill because with me it was more like a combination sleeping pill/stimulant, where the sleeping pill part of it worked first and only for a short time and then the stimulant part kicked in. The stimulant part of it was much more pronounced, to me, than any sedation it might have had.
