Stash: My Life In Hiding by Laura Cathcart Robbins - The One Day At A Time Recovery Podcast

“Ambien, when taken as prescribed works great. But basically when I took it, it did something I really liked and I immediately wanted more. My first thought after my first night of Ambien was ‘more please’… I couldn’t wait to go to sleep and that went on for years.” Laura Cathcart-Robbins
