Yeah, that can happen. It doesn't tend to, I had a little bit of that when I first used it. Once you become a little bit tolerant to it, the dominant effect is a sort of ultra disinhibited delirium. So that's like the kind of Roseanne Barr type effect.

Yeah. And I could imagine it. I could imagine how, like, on one hand, you could see someone being a sex criminal and using that as an excuse. On the other hand, I could see it's crazily disinhibiting. It really, it really does whack you out.

Basically, it's binding to the same site on the GABA-A receptor as a benzodiazepine with maybe a little bit more selectivity. So it's not so different from Xanax or Klonopin. The main difference with Ambien... is that it is metabolized very, very, very quickly. So if you take something like Valium before you go to sleep, you'll still be under the influence of it when you wake up in the morning.
