When is addiction likely to set in as that's the last thing needed right now having come off alcohol? I know 18 is a lot, but so is anxiety and trouble sleeping. Thanks. ## I can only say to stay safe, do so under a known Dr.s orders. (recommended by someone you know) Not 1 found in a directory either. With my PTSD, severe panic attacks, anxiety, endless insomnia a decent Dr. (my shrink of 14yrs) finally after having me do the rounds of SSRIs, then others, even xanax didn't work fully.

My husband has suddenly become afraid of taking dialysis after 6 yrs of going through with it. He was recommended to see a psychiatrist who recommended Etirest 0.5 mg.. 1tablet in the morning and 1/2 at nights. And, 45 minutes before dialysis 1 tablet.

If I am not mistaken, Etirest sh...
