18. /Are you taking any new meds or dosage changes
Thu Jan 22, 2026, 03:44 AM

Twice in the last couple of years, I've had heavy duty nightmares, super realistic, after a medication change her dosage change. Only reading into the weeds on the medication's revealed to that that is sometimes a side effect. I guess I'm hoping there's something you can change to avoid it. I know what it feels like to not wanna go to sleep because of them.

Really hoping that whatever it is works itself out and you're healed. Do me a little favor and sprinkle some salt around your sleeping area. I can't bless it for you, but you can for whatever that's worth.

Good luck LC, sweet dreams.
