I used to take so many meds for so many things. I saw a doctor who began weaning me off of things. I had an accident where I broke my neck, knee and have back problems. I went off most of my pain pills, still take an nsaid and use lots of natural modalities such as acupuncture and massage. He took me off the 200 mg of trazadone I was taking to sleep that no longer worked. Why take it if it doesn't work he said. I suggest you see a really good internist, ( I saw a sleep doctor who was also a neurologist and internist.) This was after I quit drinking. Although I still sleep pitifully, I am doing better than before and sleep a little more but am not groggy or sick from drugs any longer. You definitely will need to address the PTSD as well. It's One Step at a Time. You have to start somewhere. Forget the drink. It'll only make matters worse for you. Glad you're reaching out for help.

How ya doing today?
