Zolpidem (Ambien, 20mg) - Second Time - Life's Checklist

it's a mindset thing. if you expect sleep and shit, that's what you get. if you stay up or get woken up or expect to trip, it's totally different. and frankly, will not be on the market much longer. get it will you can, it's impossible to make and will be banned asap.
 
^tantric, that's what I assume. Do you know this for a fact? or just the common sense that recreational substances become schedualed?

My experiences last anywhere from an hour to 4 hours. My friends last around 4 hours I think. Maybe less, but probably never much more.
 
30mg of abiem +parents = very very bad...

did this right when i was trying to get clean (i cant control using benzos, so i was looking for an alternative :/ ) woke up in a hospital after a drug test with my mom pissed as shit. The ride home was hell because i was still halicinating even when i didnt want to.

point is, dont do too much, and only in a place that you wont hurt yourself or others (like all real strong drugs)

please be careful with this crap people!
 
oh yea man... Damn I didnt say it first....

Im not one for trip sitters. I never fuckin use them... I have enough faith in my ability to control my thoughts and actions that Im fine on any dose of salvia- I just do some meditations and make sure i know damn well through the core of my brain that I will not get out of this chair, and that works.


BUT AMBIEN IS NOT LIKE THAT. use a sitter, seriously! It inhibits your brains normal function, rather than modifying it. Please use a sitter. *

Also, with a high dosage marijuana eaten, things can get pretty crazy, but you can always pull the plug and go to sleep. Ambien isnt like that. you wont think of going to sleep.


*this may be a skewed perspective because every time ive used ambien ive been drunk or on benzos, but it is goddamn powerful stuff.

Nope. Different ppl different experiences. Ambien is one of the most (if not the most) UNPREDICTABLE drugs when it comes to the effects. Some go to sleep, some hallucinate (me), some do wild/crazy things and dont remember shit and there are some who do WAY too fucked up things while on it (like eating whole box of Ambien, running around naked, mumbling etc)

For me - 20mg is a nice dose, I hallucinate for over an hour, little euphoric, good overall feeling, and then I sleep like a baby. Good drug for me.
 
I have done ambien roughly about 15 times, each ranging from 20-40mg. Although it's a bit "trippy", that fried feeling in the head has become unbearable. Also amnesia happens everytime, and I forget most of my best experiences. It's cool, but I'd rather have some X or something..
 
Yea I'm sure a more popular drug would be a better alternative, but I just happen to get 70 5mg pills for free so this was a lot of fun for us.
 
My dr. was more than happy to RX it to me, as needed/requested, (provided I didn't exceed my supply/time frame) I found that if I took a pill and went immedietly to bed, it just put me to sleep, but if I took a pill and continued to watch TV, stuff just got wierd. Objects melting, melding, etc. Also, when I would lie in bed awake, and it would feel as if there were ppl all around me, all talking at once, like my bed was in the middle of a crowded bar. Also, I found that it gave me the munchies, but if I would eat up to at least a couple of hours after dosing, I would spontaneously projectile vomit, everywhere, with no warning. No nasuea, just puke. Never had this happen with a benzo. It's a wierd drug, that's for sure. The charts and official lit say that 20 mg ambien = `10 mg valium. I don't think that there is even a comparison.
I took it regularly for a while, but it started to hang me over really bad, even at the recommended dose, and I had the tendency to keep taking them, as I would forget that I had already taken one. Crazy shit, that Ambien is. My friend refers to the ambien experience as "cruising the Zolpidem Highway."
 
I've taken 10mgs of Ambien while staying awake. It was strange, but I think I needed 10mgs more. It sure messed up my vision and gave me a hell of a strange feeling though.
 
yeah i love my ambien too.. as for the 'ambienflip...' i have done it so many times i couldn't possibly count... take your amphetamine and a few hours later take the ambien... i feel it almost brings back the adderall as well as delivering potent effects of its own... ive tried ambien with everything

ambien+alcohol... bad your first few times then very fun
ambien+adderall - great
ambien+ecstasy - definately weird, but fun
ambien+mushrooms- definately fun
ambien+pot- can be scary first few times but real fun
ambien+hydrocodone i do not recommend...
ambien+triazolam is definately a great time
ambien+klonopin is wonderful too
ambien+tobacco is the way to go....

Maybe Ambien was not researched as much as other recreational sedatives like Ketamine.

Ketamine aint a recreational sedative IMO ... but a rather fine Dissociative.

Pretty crazy report by the way .. enjoyed it.
I think the Z Hypnotics [Zolpidem, Zopiclone & Zaleplon] are relatively new [Late 80's in the UK] and although it's said there is less potential for abuse cases are reported ... such as your trip report ;)

This is the first actual trip report I've read on a Z hypnotic. I take Zopiclone now and again especially after MDMA to aid sleep but never entered my head to abuse them. I do like the slight euphoria and confusion while I bumble around before hitting the sack though.

So I may just give them a try ... ;)
