anxiety
"I previously said I don't sleep well and it affects my ever vigilant dogs who get up too.  After surgical menopause when I was 33 years old, (now 62) hormones and sleep changed.  I finally was prescribed Xanax 1 to 2 mg at night for sleep.. Perfect.  No side effects, no abuse.  Dogs don't follow me at 2:00 am any more ,only when time to sleep. Thanks."
