Prazosin

I went to see my psychiatrist last week and he upped my dose of prazosin also known as minipress. I now take 2mg and it has made the world of a difference. No more nightmares. I could tell how well it was doing because I forgot to take the meds on Friday night and had a horror of a nightmare that night. I don't think people understand how bad these nightmares are. Death surrounds my PTSD so my nightmares are usually filled with violent deaths. Last night was the worst it had been in a long time. All I really remember from it is being cut over and over again with a box cutter on my arms. This weekend josh and I were in Omaha so the scariness of it went away as I talked to him about it. It was definitely awful. I'm so glad to have this medicine and I'm still clueless to how blood pressure medication gets rid of PTSD nightmares. 

Oh well, as long as it works right?
