Re: I THINK I'M DEPRESSED-HELP

[Guest guest]

I have good results with ambien when I take it. I take it a half-hour before

I go to bed and I have no trouble sleeping. I wake up feeling good in the

morning. I have had no sideeffects from it but everyone may have a different

reaction. Set your alarm.

your depression and difficulty sleeping sounds exactly like what I

went thru recently.. I didnt take any ambien after the hospital, but

did take it in the hosptial and it works GREAT!! try it for a little

while.. it does help...but you will eventually work your way back to

a normal pattern.. Good luck!!

Gunn, darlin..

Ambien is a very effective and gentle sleep aide. My sleep cycle was

messed up after surgery, and I was given Ambien, too. Its very

effective.. take it just as you're getting into bed. Once your sleep

schedule is right again, you may feel less depressed. If not, then

talk to your doc about an antidepressant. You'll feel better, hon, honest.

Hugs,

Hi Gunn!

I took Ambien for a couple of months to help me sleep when my

arthritis was really flaring up. It never caused any side effects

and didn't make me feel groggy the day after. It was VERY effective

in helping me sleep and if you have to get up during the night for

any reason move very carefully as you may be a little dizzy.

Good luck!
