I was given this due to being in a prison riot and seeing a lot of things that are not good. They replay in my head all the time but the night terrors are the worst.

I did that and i passed out so be aware.

I am being treated for combat related ptsd. I stopped having nightmares but the dreams I have are crazy. Sometimes they are way off the wall. My wife has woke me because I was howling one night when we were staying in a hotel. Itâ??s a real change but better than nightmares.

I had severe, trauma-related nightmares for 20 years. This medication worked for me instantly. I have zero side effects. I will take this medicine forever.
