Ambien's insanity

A year ago I was prescribed 10mg ambiens for sleeping. I was doing a lot of DXM at the time. The first night I took it I had done DMX earlier in the day and tripped with my friend. My friend decided to say the night, and at 10PM, after the DXM wore off I took 1 10mg ambien and sat on my bed. My friend and I were discussing philosophy, when about 10 minutes later, I became momentarily unaware of my surroundings. I felt my body twist backwards. But a second later I realized that I was still sitting on my bed, and my friend was giving me a weird look. He started explaining that I was in mid-sentence and just stopped talking and stared forward with a blank expression. I tried to answer him but was slurring my words badly. I didn't attribute it to the ambien, I couldn't understand what was going on but I liked it. It felt like my dxm that had worn off was coming back but with no nausia, and much stranger effects. My memories of that night r a little backwards from here on but I'll try to recreate them. At one point I felt as if my bed was a car and I was running people over. I dont' think I visually saw this, I just sort of felt like it was happening and believed it. I thought I saw small people walking around my room, but when I tried to look directly at them they weren't there. Nonetheless, I believed that there was a group of small people partying in my house. I said to my friend, 'why the hell would u invite people to a party in my house without asking?' This confused him greatly because to him there was obviously no one there. This is the last thing I remember.

I woke up the next morning lying across the arms of my recliner. My friend was asleep on the floor. I woke him up to figure out what the hell happened. All he could say is, 'dude, u went fuckin' crazy.' he told me how I was babbling about parties in my house and I remembered that. I asked how I woke up lying across the arms of a recliner and he had no idea. He said that after going crazy, I lied down in bed, so he laid on the couch and fell asleep. After thining about it for a while I realized I would never remember, and realized taht it must have been the ambien, and maybe I hallucinated so much because the DXM was still in my system but I just didnt' feel it anymore. I've tried to take DXM, wait till it wears off, then take ambien, but it's never happened again. I just fall asleep.
