They probably would be gone but that sleep paralysis craziness is preventing me from doubling my dose(1mg) like I was supposed to.

Stay in the workplace, women... count on yourself only!I was just prescribed this for anxiety and PTSD my mg will be 3mg i hope this works but I am told it can make you dizzy so I hope it works.

The episodes may last longer than a typical cataplectic attack. Select one or more newsletters to continue. Still too afraid to fall asleep at night.When I first started taking it, I used to feel a bit dizzy/dehydrated the next morning...but I guess I eventually got used to it because that doesn't happen anymore.My dreams are vivid but not violent/scary now that I take prazosin. In addition, the veteran’s suicidal ideation dis-appeared and he became abstinent from alcohol.
