CHICAGO, Ill. â Following years of research and clinical trials, a new treatment is becoming available to disrupt nightmares triggered by post-traumatic stress disorder. But itâs not a medicine. Itâs a prescription-only Apple Watch app. The âlow-riskâ treatment uses algorithms to help ensure a good nightâs sleep.
During his 21 years in the U.S. army, with deployments in Iraq and Afghanistan, Robert Guithues saw a lot of action.
âProbably 278 out of 365 days in Afghanistan we were attacked,â said Guithues.
He says faith and commitment to his soldiers got him through it. But the war was far from over. Diagnosed with severe post-traumatic stress disorder and anxiety, night terrors invaded his sleep.
