Yes. I've been on ambien for 4 years now. Without it I don't sleep at all.

I'm on anytriptyline and seroquil and still have trouble sleeping.

I would avoid the melatonin though! I took it a few nights and entered a HORRIBLE flare up, went to the doctor and he yelled at me BC apperantly I shouldn't have known that melatonin gives a lot of people flare ups... How was I to know!

Ambien does did that to we but I van no longer take it because I have sleep apnea, have you tried anything else over the country like melitone there is even tea

I struggle with sleep problems. I dream all night and they are not pleasant dreams. A lot meds can cause dreaming. I take Ambien. It is the only way I can get a good nights sleep. It is also hard when you are so tired during the day that you have to nap and then you can't sleep at night. This way it allows you to go back to sleep at night and not get your nights and days mixed up.
