Has anyone heard of the Alpha Stim? Here is a description; This Cranial Electrical Stimulation (CES) device relieves symptoms of Anxiety, Insomnia & Depression quickly and safely without requiring any form of medication.
It is not cheap, but as all three of the above (not so much depression) are a big issue at the moment, I wondered if it was worth a go. I will have to access pension funds put away, but I am unable to take HRT or anti-anxiety meds and need to find a natural way to make life more bearable at the moment. I do have prescription sleeping tablets, but try my very best not to take them, unless there is something I need to get through the next day (I have CFS/ME also, which makes any sort of event, social or otherwise, tricky). Trouble is, if I take one, the night heats still wake me up and I am unable to get back off again, which is why I only take them when absolutely necessary. Had to take a bit last night (I cut them into quarters!) and I don't like the way they leave me feeling, but at least I know I have had some sleep. Sweet, natural sleep, that glorious thing, will it ever come back?!
If anyone has had any dealings with this at all, or know someone who has, would you be kind enough to let me know, good and bad? I've discussed with other half and he says he hears' Quakery', but the British Army has started using this device for PTSD with very good results. I'm not gullible, but do wonder if I am being sucked in, but I have tried all other natural solutions and need help. Thank you! x
