One night my mother and sister had gone to bed and I was awake online talking to a few of my friends. I had been thinking about taking Ambien to get high lately and decided that now would be the best time.

So I went to the cupboard and took out 3 5mg tablets. I tought for a few moments if I really wanted to do this and decided I just might as well. I was drinking a Cherry CapriSun and that was the only thing I'd had all day so I'd figured it wouldn't take that long to kick in.

I wasn't sure how long it would take to kick in as I had NEVER done any drugs whatsoever. I was talking to my friend and noticed it became harder to type and things looked a bit duller. I also noticed that things seemed more carefree and everything was good. I looked in the kitchen and saw that the floor was moving up and down in waves. All this happened in a matter of minutes and I was surprised. The carpet started to spin and swirl around and I found it amusing. Most of my friends had signed off by now so I was amusing myself by looking at the tiles in the kitchen. Everything seemed dreamy and almost like I was underwater. My friend Jess had signed on and I was talking to her about various things that made no sense. I saw people that made me mad and heard sounds that are very hard to describe. There was a pile of blankets on the couch and I mistook them for an old woman I found this to be quite amusing. I had a bag of cough drops on top of the monitor and thought one was an elf. I noticed I was very hungry but I don't remember if I actually got anything or not.

After awhile I decided that I should go to bed as it was 4 in the morning. I remember turning off the computer and heading up the stairs. I thought there were people in the hall way so I was saying 'Excuse me.' Then I blacked out and was standing at my mom's bed saying jibberish. Then I blacked out once again and remember laughing because I fell down. Then, you guessed it, I blacked out once more and remember heading off to bed.

All in all I'd most definitely love to do Ambien again. It was a great experience.
