This could really help people. Nighttime flashbacks really fuck with my sleep. I’m medicated to the point where I don’t just wake up screaming every night, but I still have a really challenging time during the night. I’ve messaged to ask if it’ll be available in England at any point.

I know Apple might have been all over this subreddit, looking at other comments, but this could really help people. As a software engineer, Apple do seem to be a cut above with their functionality, I don’t find it unreasonable that their watch might be considered more reliable or have broader functionality than other similar watches. For medical devices, reliability is paramount, smaller companies may not have APIs to work with or may be less available, or less consistent in their production.

And if Apple aren’t better and want to use their clout to get an item prescribed which could really do some good, I don’t think that’s terrible. It takes a lot of resources to get a device through clinical trials.

Tldr: I’m excited about this product.
