Ambien is nuts...Its just like sleep walking. I took 35mg's once and had a 3 hour long black out/freak fest. I was running around talking non-sense, dancing, ect... then it all peaked when i told my 2 friends (who wernt on my level ) that i just saw Joe Pesci walk into the bathroom.. i was in the middle of a convesation withmyself and just stopped and blurted out...."Dude, Joe Pesci is in your bathroom...he just walked in there...he's in there RIGHT NOW!" Everyone looked at me like i had 3 heads....needless to say, i dont take that much anymore in one sitting.

Ambien: hallucinations and addiction

i have had some REALLY bizarre experiences with this drug. i was taking 10-30mgs on a regular basis a while back for both sleep and recreation. one nite i took just 10mg and i was sitting on the floor of my bathroom on the phone smoking a cigarette when the walls started pulsating. i have done many psychedelics so normally this wouldn't bother me, except this time, unlike acid or shrooms, i put my hand to the wall and could FEEL it moving. all of the sudden i was covered in sweat, hyper-ventilating and my heart was pounding. i stood up and immediately left the bathroom and as soon as the door was closed behind me, EVERYTHING had return to normal, my heartrate was fine and all the hallucinations had stopped. needless to say, i didn't take any for a long time after that, but i took 20mg yesterday morning after being at work all nite. when i finally woke up last nite, i had barely any memories of what had happened, but what i do remember was sitting at my computer and i kept hearing and seeing shadows of people and thinking there were other people in the room with me. at the time this was happening, it wasn't weird, but once i woke up, i realized how crazy i had been, esp after talking to my b/f and him telling me that i was all types of fucked up on the phone. i always found it weird that mainly the only hallucinations i get are that there are lots of other people around, and i get VERY productive 8(

bending walls, shadows moving by themselves (like in peter pan), me and my friends first experience with drugs (besides pot and alcohol) was with ambien. One time i passed out on my kitchen table while drinking chocolate milk, woke up next morning feeling very refreshed but also covered in chocolate milk. wierd/fun drug.

First of all, let me say that I'm not that experienced with Ambien, I've only done it 4 times.
Yes, I did get visuals (at around 20-30 mgs), but they weren't kick-ass visuals like an acid trip. They were more subtle. In closed-eye terms, I saw swirling colors and burst of light; in open-eye terms, it seemed as if bright lights projected themselves (like 3-D). For instance, after about an hour of taking 20mg, I looked at my alarm clock and couldn't read the digits; they were projected and it seemed as though the digits were dancing / sliding back and forth.
In terms of addiction, I can see why people would want to abuse it, because visuals are cool and because it's fairly easy to get from doctors (I've yet to understand the "no possibility for addiction" thing yet; it's a Schedule IV). Personally, though, it's not something I would want to do regularly. It made me very lethargic, and, after staying up a while, it gave me a really bad headache.
Also, I know Ambien isn't a "true" psychedelic; it's a non-benzodiazepine benzodiazepine. But, since your question pertains mainly to hallucinations, maybe you'd find more information in psychedelics or trip reports.

Zopiclone/Limovan
Has anyone else experienced the amazing hallicinations that is possible on these sleeping tablets??
The first time i tried them was on a pill come down. My friend had a photo collage on her wall and all the people in the pictures were dancing quite wildly which was hilarious. I then started to notice what can only be described as clouds of energy moving around the room. My friend and I were fascinated by them and discovered that we were able to put our hands out to them and will them towards us. The energy clouds seemed to attach themselves to our hands and had a certain density to them which could be felt!
I managed to obtain some of these pills for myself and have tried them on numerous occasions with other people, sometimes pilling and sometimes straight with pretty much the same hallucinations (although slightly more intense on pills). On every occasion, the person i am buzzing with has seen and felt the exact same thing as I have - joint hallucinations. You are also able to play with your own energy by holding the palms of your hands apart but facing each other and moving them backwards and forwards! This has led us to believe that what we are seeing is actually real on some level. I know i sound like a hippie but Im honestly not!
Plus, you get a wicked sleep on them when you finally decide you want to!!

I have experienced seeing people who werent there many times off high doses of ambien. I would like to experiment with like 30-40mgs and see what that does. And sniffing them is retarded cause all you get is a burn and nothing more intense about it.
Dam, reading these posts is depressing, can you not see this is clearly an unwise thing to do. Just because you CAN trip off something doesnt mean you should, or that its a wise thing to do.
If your just missing parts of your memory your nuts, especialy as some of you are driving around during this, can you not see how fucking dangerous that is!?!
As for insomnia, I found it next to useless, Zopiclone is much better.

I LOVE AMBIEN
Ok, ambien is great. Yes it can be used other than specified. I am on 2x10mg tabs a night. The bottom line is, if you stay awake after you take it you will experience other than worldly things. Also, it is known to cause "temporary amnesia". You will forget most of what happened. I also recommend takign it and then putting the bottle away or something. There has been a couple times when I've woke up and realized that I had taken 3 or 4 pills. THat is far too many. 10-20mg of ambien should be sufficient to really get you in a far out place. Again, be careful, you will most likely be unaware of what you are doing. I also usually call EVERYONE in my phone list while on it!
have fun!

I wrote a note on my ambien bottle to remind me that I already took one, and go back to bed.
Seems to be working, my usage has dropped.
I don't usually remember getting up, but I used to get to the end of my bottle, and realize it was too soon to get it refilled.

Re: I LOVE AMBIEN
With xanax, if I take it and want to remember the night, I take one 30mg time release adderall and I'm able to remember everything. Even on insane doses of bars, I'm able to hold onto my memory and have had some really wild adventures with it. Such as watching the room move a different direction then I am. Back during my heavy xanax using days, when I found out about using it with adderall, it gave xanax a whole new chapter for me. Maybe an adderall and ambien combo will help with the memory problem.elmodutch said:

I very much enjoy Ambien, I take it every night for prescribed reasons and do not abuse it currently but every now and then I will snort 20-30mg and get BIZZARE and lovely, good feeling hallucinations.

Im not going to say that ambien didnt do anything to me as my friend and I saw some weird shit. But I believe that I get the same effect from not sleeping for a night or two after doing meth. As for addiction to this sleeping pill, I hope this person doesnt discover anything more addicting than ambien...

I took 2 Zopiclones(orally) and another .5 snorted. things are pretty messed up on that shit!!... Zopiclones are stronger and better than Ambiens
I've taken it once - a 10mg tablet. I was actually trying to use it to go to sleep, but since i always listen to music when I sleep I put on headphones because of my noisy meth head neighbors.
Well all I felt was like a weird sense that i was sunk in my bed - not just feeling heavy - but like i was in the foam of my mattress with only my nose and mouth above it.
I was listening to the The Glow Pt. 2 by the Microphones, which if you listen to enough might actually make you think you are seeing stuff anyway, but I didn't have any hallucinations. And i didn't get to sleep until at least 3 hours after taking it.
