Hi Fallen,
I don't know if this will make you feel better (but I hope so)...
I have sometimes gone 5 days without ANY sleep, and been perfectly fine! I'm not manic nor an insomniac, I just sometimes get busy doing this or that, and just don't 'get around to it'! I know it's not a good idea, but I just wanted to let you know that you really WILL be OK if sometimes you don't sleep!! I've never had hallucinations or even any wierdness at all -- the most that happens is I get a headache (which goes away after I finally go to bed)!
Anyway, I just wanted to let you know you didn't have to worry about not sleeping sometimes -- you really WILL be ok!! I think you should go for it & get off the Ambien!!! Just think how GREAT you will feel!! If you are already wanting to stop, that's half the battle right there -- and knowing you'll be OK if you can't sleep sometimes will hopefully make you feel more confident about your decision!!
I'll be prayin' for you!!! :o)
