Advice & Tips
If you are a recovering alcoholic (I quit drinking 35 years ago), it can trigger a relapse if you are not cognizant of that potential danger. Be prepared.

Advice & Tips
This worked fairly well on my fibro, but the side effects were awful. Even with a sleeping pill, I spent half the night awake or in restless sleep, and most of the day moving like a zombie due to lack of sleep. Even when I *did* sleep, the dreams were so vivid and realistic, it was like I was awake anyway. I was beginning to lose my mind because of the sleep loss. I tried stopping it before, then starting it when I had another bad flare, but the sleep loss was just too much for me to handle.
