*Confusing my dog for a remote control (my husband told me)
*Painting my hardwood floors
*Thinking im in a place im not
*Seeing/hearing people or objects that arent there

you need to speak to your doctor immediately about these behaviors.

I had no memory of things I did the next day, either. Well, I did, but it was like it was all a dream. I used to cut myself after taking Ambien. I'd wake up the next day with cuts all over my arms and I didn't remember doing it. It was like I had dreamt it. I also made plans with friends....one time, I made plans with a friend of mine to meet for lunch or something and I never showed up because I didn't remember making the plans. I had really bad amnesia after taking Ambien. It helped me sleep, though!

You might want to lay off the Ambien. Has there been any recent murders or strange disapearances in your area? I try to use my dog for a remote all the time, that one might be normal.

I've never taken it, but I have a good friend who had very similar experiences to yours. Like you, she drove around and called people in the wee hours of the night ... and had no memory of it.
She stopped taking it. You probably should too!

are you by any chance taking something like... lithium. or any other meds for that matter? either way, you should definitely head over to the doc or give'm a call. you're not supposed to have these side effects =/ good luck!

Consult a doctor immediately and MEDITATE before going to bed and after waking up.

Get off of it quickly!! My step-father had some of the same symptoms you describe. When he stopped taking it the symptoms went away.
