Just read about that med. That is an old time med used by pediatricians to to quiet hyperactive kids. That was before, or in the beginning of stimulant type treatments.

My dad was one of those docs. I used to sneak some from the plethora of free samples on hand. It was a good buzz for a mixed up kid.

I have read that extreme nightmares a typical of PTSD. Indeed, the clonidine I take is used for PTSD. This has brought to recollection a suppressed memory of life threatening stress I endured for 3-4 weeks about 20 years ago. May be a connection.

Again, there seems to be no specific therapeutic approach to PTSD. Just like extreme nightmare. Frustrating.
