I am aware of hypnogogia, but this was completely different. I'd been awake for a bit and it took control of me when I stood up. It was a nightmare.
I am in supported living. Currently they're just coming round to give me my meds at the door, just only that. I'm on thiamine, propranolol, sertraline, olanzapine. I think that's it. I don't know seeing as ALL medications of a therapeutic sort seem to be gradual but I think the olanzapine is helping a lot. I've been on the sertraline for a while but I can't see it making any difference after about May this year. The propranolol I know from experience helps, even more than the lorazepam when I was on it, it's a miracle drug. I do get nightmares, but they're not normal nightmares, they're dreams that are so detailed they're indistinguishable from reality.
