  • My brother used to take Ambien

    Like, too much Ambien. I heard that in the USA, you could only get 3-5 tablets or something like that prescribed. Over here in ZA, you can get a 6 month prescription with 30 tablets each repeat.

    We shared a bathroom. On multiple occasions I’d walk in with the floor coated in piss. One time, I walked in while he was lying face down, dick out, on the floor completely soaked in urine.

    I helped him up, he said something incompressible and tried to get him a fresh pair of clothes.

    Another time he woke me up to convince me he could make things levitate. I said “nah man you’re on Ambien, go to bed”, but he kept insisting. Eventually I just caved so I could go back to sleep and watch him unsuccessfully levitate his keyboard.

    I played cod once after taking 10mg. I felt like I was in the fucking jungle. Heart pounding, terrified, adrenaline flowing, tunnel vision. Fucking dominated that match though.

    I then blacked out and I told someone who I haven’t spoken to in years, that I was in love with them. (I wasn’t). Deleted the message when I woke up. No follow ups, thank god.

    The memories are either blackout or vaguely choppy.

    Weird-ass drug. Wouldn’t recommend unless you really struggle to fall asleep. You gotta take the pill and immediately jump into bed and try to fall asleep or else face the consequences of shit you don’t remember doing.




  • The assisted exit game without saving provided is not great. From what I understand, it paralyzes you and makes it feel like every part of your body is on fire until your heart eventually stops pumping blood.

    I may be misremembering, but I think it also takes a really long time. 30 minutes or something of pure agony.

    No one deserves that. Especially not this dude. First time offender, substantial public support, very unlikely to reoffend. They’re trying to make an example out of him. Don’t you dare hurt the shareholders.

    Long story short, I can’t openly advocate for a better solution to assisted grave digger revenue, but lethal injection is one I’d strongly advise against.

    Also, I have a similar problem with back pain. Not as drastic as his, but when it hits, my god, I can’t walk, sometimes it reaches the back of the neck, makes it feel like the back of my head is repeatedly being stabbed. My insurance paid for physiotherapy, but it still flares up now and then.
