"this drug will knock you out for sure, but it has some really crazy side effects that i didn&#039;t think would actually happen to me, mainly doing stuff that i don&#039;t remember at all -- one night i made an extremely hefty online purchase and had no recollection of it. i also &quot;drunk text&quot; on ambien, or otherwise say things verbally to people that i don&#039;t remember. this has happened a number of times and actually caused a lot of problems in my last relationship. i&#039;ve woken up literally covered in food. it also worsened my depression. not a great experience."
