post traumatic stress disorde
"I am 63 and have had CPTSD all my life.

Prazosin has helped a lot.

BUT it's been rocky. 

The first dose I took felt like a miracle.  I was serene and amazed. 

But then my nervous system got confused.  Used to the constant fight stimulus.

I would get wired taking it before sleep.  Took it during the day which helped.  

WHAT I experienced felt like when one's arm goes numb and then circulation returns.  My whole body felt like it was coming alive again.  It hurt but I knew it was good.  My digestion worked better.  (makes sense) I had insomnia about 3 nights a week.

After 2 months I'm so so much better - hardly any hypervigilance, less nightmares.

So decrease the dose if you need to and gradually build it up if you have the problems I had."
