During the middle of the night I slept walk and slep drove to a local convience store and bought a pack of Marlboro Lights-I do not smoke Marlboro lights. I also had my dog leashes clumped together in the middle of the living room, which looked as if I was going to walk my dogs in the middle of the night. Also the prescription of Ambien which I had just filled was completly empty, 13 pills were gone. I also had climbed up on a chair or ladder to reach my top shelf in order to retrieve a large turkey platter that I dumped half a box of cereal in with a quart of milk. I do not remember one thing I did ater taking the Ambien the night before. To make matters worse at 9:00 the morning after.I slept drove to another convienence store parked my car walked inside the store to use their ATM , the gas attendent thought I looked out of it and when a cop came in to pay for his gas she told the officer I did not look right. The officer escorted me outside did some sobriety test and arrested me for a DUI. My trial date is this Thursday-January 13,2011. Also I was not drinking nor doing any street drugs that would have caused this type of reaction. last year October of 2009 I had taken Ambien to get a good night sleep.

I had not been drinking at ALL. I had taken a 10 mg pill at 11pm the night before and had been for all these years so I knew how it affected me. When the cops showed up and I (like a dumby) told them what medicines I took they arrested me for DUI of Drugs. They took me to the hospital took my blood, since it showed up I got charged.

I am sick with the flu so we all decided to stay in and watch movies for my birthday. I took my prescribed 10 mg ambien thinking I would fall asleep to the movie. Instead I ended up in jail with a DUI and I don't remember anything. I don't remember anything of that night and I had no idea I was drinking. I was told I got in the car to go to the store and ran my car over the sidewalk almost hitting the store. I guess I passed out in front of the store where the police picked me up. I hit something as my bumpers were all dented but I have no idea what. I am really worried about being found guilty of a DUI and doing jail/prison time (this is not my first DUI but it will certainly be my last!) since I didn't even make the decision to drink..I don't even remember consuming any alcohol at all!

Where to begin..??? I was taking ambien when i could not sleep or did not sleep much from the night before. I was prescribed ambien, after having shoulder surgery for an injury. Anyways, this past wednesday (a week ago), i was working in the garage and around 4:30-5:00 was really exausted and laid down but could not sleep, so i got out of bed and took ambien....2 hours later i was involved in a traffic accident, so i was told when i woke up in JAIL! I apparently got up out of bed, and went for a drive, but evidently i rear-ended someone. I knew it was nothing other than ambien after trying to remember what i had taken before bed, then i research ambien online and find out people "sleep drive" on it. This DRUG is very dangerous and should be banned, taken OFF the shelf. It is a nightmare! Well, lets see here.. Where to begin..???

Many people have discussed driving while "sleeping". There is another huge issue to be considered when discussing Ambien. That is the fact that it is addictive. Many people do not realize this and then do not know where to go for Ambien Addiction Treatment. There is Ambien help out there. You just have to know where to look. Stay safe everyone.
