sleeping pills?

Michele · May 19th 2007, 6:24am

does any one know if they are really really bad or only if u abuse them or what?

cause i used to just stay up for days on end, then i started taking these all natural sleep aids , that work really well and knock me out in like 15 minutes. they are meletonin. the ones i use now are ambien, and they work pretty much just as well only sometimes i take one and just get really tired and end up staying up any way.

and anyway i'v been taking one a night (maybe 4 times a week) for a long time now. is that bad? indifferent? (i know its not "good"), and the other 3 days in the week i stay up all night.

I don't like sleeping pills..

I don't take them. Even though I ususally end up staying awake until 2-ish.

It's not good that you're staying up all night 3 times a week. Unless you're wanting to. But if you're not, I guess if you're going to use them, use them every night? Pretty much every sleep aid carries a risk of dependency, so there's not much you can do about that. But if you're seriously having trouble sleeping, and the pills knock you out, I'd want to get good sleep every night instead of 4 out of the 7. Just my opinion though.

Yeah. It's not that good that your using them all the time. You will eventually get addicted/depended on them.

On most boxes of over-the-counter sleeping pills in UK they say to see your doctor if you are taking them for more than 2 weeks. So there's your answer.

Ambien sucks ass. My brother got put on that and started seeing fucking monkeys. Not even kidding. But I take sleeping pills because I have that stupid sleeping disease. I have stayed up five days on end and looked like a damn zombie. It's not healthy but what is healthy these days. Those pills should knock you out and shit. But it's okay to take the pills and then stay up on other nights. Unless you take the pill and it's not doing anything. Don't take the pill and try to force yourself to stay up either.

melatonin is natural and is fine to take forever i am on it though i dont take it some nights so i can stay up my mum gives it to me (its a liquid one i have) to make sure ive had it but sometimes i just keep it in my mouth and spit it out after :p

it just makes your brain think its nighttime and want to sleep and you feel really sleepy and relaxed but as it not a drug you can still wake up and are not wiped out like on a sleeping pill i used to take some sleeping pills but the doctor didnt like me on them and says melatonin is fine

u can buy it in health shops

sleeping pills?? you could get addicted to them and not be able to sleep anymore unless you got those pills.. better you drink a tea with calming effect.. that would be less unhealthy for you. .

just take only what the doctor prescribed you. Sometimes, too much using sleeping pills can affect your mental capability.
