When the effects of Ambien wear off, users will feel confused and lethargic. Some users have shown signs of paranoia, hallucinations and psychotic delusions. Other withdrawal symptoms of Ambien shortly after using include:
- Panic attacks
- Insomnia
- Depression
- Craving for more
At the three-day mark, the withdrawal symptoms of Ambien do not subside; in fact, the insomnia, paranoia and depression will become increasingly worse. In most cases, users develop anxiety, become irritable and experience drastic mood swings. Users will also feel weak and have little to no appetite.
Up to 10 days after using Ambien, users will begin to experience stiff muscles but most of the withdrawal symptoms of Ambien begin to subside. By the 90 day mark, most users feel back to normal; however, without following the Ambien detox with the proper treatment of Ambien addiction, the chances of a relapse are significantly increased.
