i take ambian every night usually but I havent gotten my scrip filled. I haven't slept in 3 days now and I'm starting to get sick. I'm afraid to drive and it's affecting school, but I can't seem to fall asleep until an hour before I wake up for school. Please help! I'm desperate

Hello,
since I've been in the same situation where my former doctor put me in the situation where the only way I could get any sleep was with the help of pills, after changing the doctor and cleaning my system from all sleeping 'aids' like Ambien, I tried several meditation- like techniques and the one that works is progressive guided meditation.
You'd have to get a earphones and a good progressive or guided meditation track (search youtube, my suggestion is mooji), lie down and just listen to the pleasant guiding voice. Of course, the goal of this is not to fall asleep - but it gets me to sleep each time :)
Wish you all the best,
nicole

Thanks ^.^ i just started running before I eat dinner after school and after I eat I take a shower and I'm out. But I really used the ambian for when I had a lot going on and when I'm thinking about stuff I can't sleep. But my doctor took me off it just like that. I was freaking out

Yeah, mine did that to me too. It's a dependence causing substance, no wonder you were freaking out. I was on a pretty high dose, so I actually had withdrawals, but from this point, when I'm free of Ambien I can tell you it's definitely better to feel that you're in control and not some medication. Stress gets to us all and when you're using a 'happy pill' to escape from it, you're not solving anything. The problems just pile up - at least they did from me and it gets to the point where it all blows up. Running is a good idea, I think I might try it, too :)
