Need a sleeping aid alternative to Ambien?

Question:

My girlfriend takes Ambien, and there are many negetive side effects. She doesn't remember anything at all 20 minutes after taking it. She now cannot sleep at all without it. She gets headaches.
Does anybody have experience with a different option that doesn't have the same side effects? example: Lunesta?

Answers:
Man those drugs are over rated. Many good doctors should know that. Many people just don't get out enough. What I mean by that is exposure just being outside. Studies have shown that people who make it a point to get out and get active during day light hours, actually sleep very well. We are not nocturnal. When it's dark out, we sleep. It's that simple. Drag her to the doctors office for good counseling if necessary. See a psychiatrist who listens instead of jumping on the pharmacy alternatives. Avoid caffine, smoking, drugs, and booze etc.
