I got meds for nightmares.

I can't take it anymore.

Doc says they work within a day or two. I have to do some research, I don't like taking meds. I haven't had a good experience with meds ever, but I've never tried anything for nightmares.

I can manage stress/pain during the day, but it needs to eff off my sleep because it keeps making everything worse.

Nightmares are the worst. I uses to have them 5-6 times a week, all night long, from the time I can remember till I was 26. I don't know what happened then to make them stop, but I rarely have them anymore.

It eventually got so common that I didn't consider it a nightmare unless it woke me up and kept me up for an hour. Needless to say, I didn't get much sleep as a kid.
