First Dose:

I decided to try Zolpidem and I was a little bit nervous so I decided to go for a relatively low dose of 20mg. I took the two pills at the same time.

About 20 minutes later:

I begin to feel strange but pleasurable euphoric sensation. It felt similar to being tickled but it was very soft. My vision begins to have a subtle change as everything becomes a bit blurry and less detailed in general. My anxious feelings begin to dissolve and I feel a bit sedated.

I completely loose track of time:

From this point out, time is meaningless. I remember listening to music and dancing... just being a crazy mess. Double vision begins to take over. I was tipsy and walking was kind of a challenge. My heart rate was also higher than it usually is.

Second Dose:

I was not planning on it, but I took another 40mg, probably around 2 hours after the initial dose. This is where things begin to take a turn.

Around an hour after the second dose:

I had eaten Taco Bell before any of this happened. I suddenly felt a slight stomach discomfort and I went into the bathroom and threw up. I'm pretty sure I didn't even feel that sick, I pretty much threw up for no reason. It was oddly easy to throw up. I sent my friends a picture of what had just come out of me... no idea why I thought it would be a good idea to show them. By this point, the double vision was solid and unchanging. When I texted my friends, it was hard for me to understand what they were trying to say. Like the words in the text messages didn't come together to make a sentence. I laid in bed and closed my eyes and thought about random scenarios while I heard voices. I don't remember the rest of the night, but looking back at the time stamp on the picture of the vomit, it was probably about 2 AM when I went to sleep.
