"i&#039;ve been on lunesta for about 7 months and it&#039;s made a huge difference.  i can actually sleep.  the taste hasn&#039;t bothered me as much as it seems to bother some people.  i take it and then read for a while and often the next day i can&#039;t remember what i read, but now that i&#039;m used to it, that doesn&#039;t bother me either.  my doctor said it&#039;s not safe to take it for an extended period of time and tried to switch me to rozerem, but that didn&#039;t work at all, and i insisted on the lunesta."
