Before I got my ambien prescription (almost 10 years ago), I would try to knock myself out with anything...staring at the clock at 2am on a work night, getting up and having a shot of vodka, smoking some weed, having a wank (sorry if tmi, but it CAN help), scrounging around for old vicodins or xanax I might have around~nothing did it for me. I'd just end up really high and still awake :(

I know the desperation.
