Hate to sound Pro-drug and all...but for once, I have to take issue with the whole "addicted"thing. It's important. But sleep deprivation is really underrated as a problem and it leads to SO many other health issues and R issues at a time when you can least afford it. And We are not discussing taking a med to "feel high"....
I definitely found taking certain sleep aids helped me so much I finally looked forward to sleeping, intead of fearing the nightmares. And I wasn't groggy in the mornings which I was when I didn't get sleep. Not to mention the whole mood thing...and not functioning well at work, ETC ETC Frankly, I'd rather go through withdrawal from ambien (if there is one--and from what I read, withdrawal consists of "rebound insomnia" which is what I already had!), than never sleep well again in the next year...
That's my two cents...
