i have dealt with many traumatic experiences throughout my life,,but this last one(about 8 weeks ago)was the first time i really thought i was going to die.i managed to get out and stay out.i have always had dark memories and scary dreams but..after this last incident,i began having terrible flashbacks,memories,and nightmares..i started taking a medication called PRAZOSIN..it is a blood pressure medication,and i do not have a blood pressure problem but the doctor told me that it was found to help the symptoms i am having..well ,it works,and it started working immediately..i am thankful...maybe when i get through this hard part of my life i can deal with it but not right now..just wanted to post that meds do work

i'm glad it works...it's so difficult to find the right med and the right doasge that works for you since everyone is sooo different and theres not just one cure all (wouldn't that be nice) how is it going? still working out?

well the meds worked at first but for the past few days they havent..i am afraid to increase because when i did i got pains in my chest and so the doc lowered the dose..i see him again on the 29th..i am having alot of post traumatic stress and my neck has been burning alot..i just wish it would stop and i havent been sleeping well..the trial date is getting closer and i dont know how to deal...i still believe in meds to help but they are not working as well so for the next week or so my neck will probably burn
