how do i get the same results i used to get from taking one 10 mg. a night

[sallysunshine12345]

i've never been able to take just 10 mg. of ambien at night to sleep. my mom takes the same dose and has for years and she can still fall asleep with the one pill. i am taking upwards of 30 mg. at night and want to go down to 10 mg. to help me sleep. see my mom gets loopy and i have ot put her to bed because she can barely keep her eyes open and she mumbles her sleep all normal things. while taking ambien. but for me this doesn't happen. i don't know what i need to do to achieve these results with only one ambien. what's wrong with me.? i'm tired of taking more than i need to and wish i could just fall asleep on the low dose like my mom. i've tried to cut down more and more but my body won't let me. if i take one ambien it leaves me awake all night. i just want to detox(if that's the answer)  my body and get it used to taking 10 mg. at night again. what's wrong with me?. i 'm absolutely frustrated and can't afford to pay for all this ambien. HELP what should I DO??so
