"i started this medication when i was experiencing flashbacks to trauma and i would wake up in a sweat, screaming or sleepwalking.  i take many other medications to help with post traumatic stress disorder, depression and bipolar.  it worked wonderfully well for 7 years.  i stopped taking this when i got a new doctor as she wanted to lower my dose of medications.  i have now been consistently having nightmares and am hitting, kicking and punching my husband at night.  he wakes me to this.  i feel terrible about this because my husband has been a wonderful support for the last 20 years.  i want to go back on trazodone. its the only thing that will work for me."
