I never expected there to be so much controversy and anger generated by my question. Frankly, the differing opinions don't help me much. Right now I am taking 10mg of ambien at night that my husband gives me and 100mg of Seroquel that my psych prescribed for sleep (although she has never known about my ambien problem). I seem to be sleeping although I still get terrified at night that I won't sleep. My biggest problem now, though, is fighting the craving to take the ambien during the day to "zone" out when I do not want to deal with life. But as long as I do not have any of the med, I will have to come up with coping ways to deal with the cravings. I hope I can. WhatI hoped to get from this group was support---it does not matter what anyone thinks about ambien's addictivenes--for me, I know it is.My other biggest fear now also is how to tell the truth to my therapist and psyc. dr next week--I want to be a good person and hate having to admit how much I have been lying
