Those effects exist. Trust me. I've said and done some truly insane things when staying awake on Ambien. Not on purpose either, just didn't fall asleep for whatever reason, and when those euphoric effects kick in you don't have the critical reasoning to stay in bed. I've had to apologize to many people the day after for writing disturbingly surreal emails and facebook posts. Helluva drug. I refuse to take it anymore.

That's not what "euphoria" means.
What are you talking about? The euphoric feelings (a sense of uncontrollable excitement and happiness) led to me saying and doing strange things.
Euphoria and saying and doing strange things are not the same thing, and a drug that is simply euphoric doesn't cause you to act in the confused, manic state that Ambien does. Heroin users are not known for their fugue states.
The combination of euphoria with the other side effects of Ambien is what leads to the behavior I described, but I can see this is really about you being right at all costs. Lighten the hell up.
This reminds me of:
