Has anyone tried or takes sleeping pills like Lunesta or Ambien? I am supposed to start taking them, but just wanted to know how well they work. I was put on mild tranquilizers, but they made me hyper at first and dizzy the next day to the point where I couldn't open my eyes without out passing out. Any advice would help!
 
Well I have heard you can get addicted to them and if you take them for long time you won't be able to sleep until you've had the sleeping tablets.

I been reading up on it and these sleeping pills and the side effects sound quite bad including sleepwalking and short-term amnesia..views of people who have taken Ambien and Lunesta

How bad is your sleep?? If you are going to take them you should leave it as a last last resort.

Trust me, it's definitely a last resort. The only other thing that speeds up how fast I fall asleep is sleeping on the couch with the TV on.
 
Rather leave the TV on and go to sleep, sometimes I go to sleep whilst my ipod is on playing a lecture, ever tried that?? lol

Have you gave herbal medicines a try??

Herbals don't work, lectures don't work. Classical music does, but we aren't supposed to listen to it. I am going to try a nature CD, so inshaAllah that works.

There is iktilaaf on the issue of music - and if it really does help you go to sleep then it may be permissable - especially when compared to taking drugs that may harm you. Seek a fatwa from a shiekh or imam.
