Many years ago, I briefly took Ambien and recall it working well and fast. Now, I've been taking it again nightly for about a year and basically isn't doing anything. A friend who is a psych. told me that the reason Ambien works indefinitely is that it isn't a "sedative" "it let's you sleep" Usually I find that I sit in bed waiting watching tv waiting for it kick in but it never does. Honestly, I could do my taxes after taking it. I've tried Luensta which is helping a bit, but I'm wondering if I just have the right approach to taking these meds. My doctors are conservate but somewhat open-minded. My sleep med choices are: ambien, lunesta, neurontin, and all other things iike neurontin. Are you literally supposed to take the tablet and go right to bed and wait for an hour for it to kick in? Would that help at all?
