What helps the symptoms of Small Fiber Neuropathy?

I am going off Ambien slowly. I have reduced it from 5mg every night to 2.5 mg every other night. I am not sleeping as well, but I still sleep OK. I am not sure what happens if you go cold turkey. I think your body gets dependent on it to go to sleep, but I don't know if you get withdrawal symptoms or not.

Going off Ambien or its generic (Zolpidem tartrate) all at once will result in a totally sleepless night at first, somewhat better the second night then you are weaned off for good. Do not take naps during day one or two to make withdrawal more effective.
