"warning: take the side-effects of this med really seriously. i had a car accident which shook me up emotionally really badly and i wasn&#039;t sleeping. so the doc prescribed ambien, which i was somewhat aware of, but had never taken.



for a little context, i am a 45 year-old guy. the morning after my third night of taking ambien, i woke up to discover that i had enrolled in college. i don&#039;t know why, i don&#039;t know why i picked the school i picked, but i registered, got accepted, applied for financial aid-- the whole thing, without intending to, nor remembering having done it.



it turned out to have been a great thing for me (this was two years ago). i also now know to take ambien and then lay the eff down.. don&#039;t sit up, waiting for it work."
