Insomnia
"I have been taking 5 mg of Ambien for quite a while. It has, however, been making me wake up, every hour on the hour, and I eat and eat through out the night. Years ago I took Ambien and I would wake up and I would find crumbs in the bed and would not remember even eating anything. Let&#039;s just say, I gain &#039;unneeded&#039; weight...... ;( I told my psychiatrist today that I want to stop taking it and that I wish to &#039;wean&#039; myself off of it, and she told me to &#039;just do it&#039;. You don&#039;t have to worry about weaning it. Your on such a small dose.&quot; On every thing I have ever read and learned (I am a RN), you wean yourself off of any medicine. So I am going to wean myself off of the Ambien.

Thanks for reading."
