> Thanks for the response. It is interesting that 6 didn't do anything (other than disconnect you). I will DEFINATELY remember your experience, lol. As a result of your comments I have done some hunting on the net and snagged additional comments of humorous memory lose incidents. This is serious business, this illlness of ours, and at the same time, we need to remember not to be too serious about it.
Fear not, it does sound a bit funny to me, as well! It doesn't even seem like it happened to me in the first place! I had taken Ambien a few months before my little escapade, but had forgotten that it didn't really work for me. My husband failed to remind me of this until after I came down from the Ambien carousel in the sky. I cannot believe that 6 of them didn't make me sleep. It's amazing. I know drugs don't work in the same way for everyone, and this is certainly proof. I'm glad it works for you! BTW, the funniest part of the ordeal was this, I had applied for a job at a pharmacy, of all places, and had gotten hired as the assistant manager. The manager called during my Ambien haze, and my husband was stupid enough to hand me the telephone. I actually carried on some sort of conversation with the guy, God only knows what either of us said! Either way, I never called him back, and he did the same. I avoid Walgreen's now, it's too embarrassing, but a bit funny!
