      Hi folks,
      Just reaching out to anyone who has successfully tapered from high usage zolphidem (ambien). and can provide some guidance as I am trying to taper from 230mg per day (divided doses) to 0. My sleep is still poor despite roughly 140mg at night

      Any advice from someone with a similar experience and success story is appreciated in advance

        Hello!
        Welcome to this forum. Nobody seems to want to respond to you so maybe I shall say a thing or two.

        Pills don’t work. Earlier in my insomnia journey, I used them but they quickly fizzled out by the 3rd night so I came off them and never used them since. I later found out the dependence is purely just psychological and not physical.

        It’s a blessing actually to not have used them long term. Because it allowed me to find natural sleep again. Anything that dents your natural sleep confidence automatically reinforces your insomnia. And taking pills is just one of them.

        Good luck and best wishes to you.
