    My $.02 on Ambien

    Regardless of the "caliber" of the essay... Ambien *does* do these things. My ex, a beautiful but rather uptight young thing, was prescribed the drug for sleep. After popping the dose, she would get absolutely uninhibited, giving pleasure in ways that she would normally never deign to do... and, yeah, I loved it, full knowing it wasn't even "her" molesting me. Afterward, like clockwork, she would then get gushingly lovey-weepy for awhile, then nod off. She took two once and was so immobilized she wet the bed. Like most her assorted meds, she didn't stay on the script long.
