was watching a youtube tonight and was wondering we often give people zanax or other calming drugs to help them relax\sleep after a tragic event should we maybe be giving them something to prevent them from sleeping, like an amphetamine my reason for thinking this is memories are moved to permanent memory during sleep, not sleeping can make it harder to remember what you learned that day thus, by not sleeping for an extended time after a ptsd type event, you may actually weaken that memory, which would be a good thing in this case this could help members of our military when they encounter these PTSD type events anyways just an idea throwing out there This was the video I watched
