Sleep meds

[LurkerNoMore]

Ok, as noted on some current and past threads quite a few of our members are using things to help them sleep.   Either RX or OTC.  I have never had that problem so just curious as to why some of you may be suffering from insomnia.  Is it due to other RX side effects keeping you awake, pain issues, job/family stress, or just having an unbreakable night owl lifestyle?  What have you tried that worked or didn't work?

I really have no issues falling asleep and often take an hour nap most days of the week.  I do have Ambien here, but that is what I bought overseas many years ago and only use it for when I am doing a travel gig and need to sleep on the plane.  I bought 100 tabs in 2009 (I believe) for $12 and still have about 40 left.  I only use 1/2 tab each time. 

I have read that most sleep aids OTC often leave you dragging the next day.

Never tried Ambien, Lunesta or Sonata

If i really really need to sleep and i'm thinking too much tossin' and turnin' in bed unable to sleep, i'd use Propavane/Poopervane

My sleep sux.....always has,I can take 2 Ambien and stare at the fucking ceiling.

I have extreme anxiety issues,my mind never stops racing and I never feel comfortable.

It`s been a bit better as of late though....no clue as to why,but I`ll take it.

Do you worry too much?

Do you worry too much?

Yes,about everything,mostly about things I  have no control over anyway,but it`s just part and parcel with anxiety disorders.......comes with the territory.

What meds do you take for the anxiety?

Sertraline?
Duloxetine?

I find I wake up with shoulder pain a few times thru the night w/ out those. And they were crucial when I pulled my back a few weeks ago.
THC = Greatest natural medicine ever...

I can finally buy them legally at the store here nearby... (Or online of course)...

Back in 2020 a neighbor gave me a box full of bars of this.   I had no use for it and gave it to my buddy that owns a couple of bars here.  Some of his bartenders are pot heads.  He said that almost all of them said it wired them up too much to sleep.  Weird I would think.   But I have seen THC products that claim they are for focus and concentration.  I always thought pot mellowed you out.  Never used it myself.

Is insomnia a real thing? I don’t believe it is. If you get up early (4:30 - 5:00), physically exert yourself somewhat during the day, and repeat daily, you will sleep just fine. I find that people who complain of “insomnia” have irregular sleep schedules, take naps during the day, and/or otherwise have bad habits that are not conducive to getting a good night’s sleep. Occasionally you may wake up a night due to some issue that is causing anxiety, like the SEC finally looking into some of your shadier trades, but that should be the exception.

never needed meds to sleep but i never eat 3 hours before sleeping & i am very active during the day.
Just basics

[Donny]

another thing i have found is do not do cardio too late in the evenings.  Train if you can early mornings or mid afternoons.

Lexotan but the next day i feel hangover. Been smoking some indica strains before bed. From a small vase in the balcony  .

I have  had lots of trouble falling asleep (even as a kid) ... I'd stare out my window and Would feel comforted if someone else was up/ bedroom light was on) as an adult it got worse (anxiety / worrying about things like finances etc) then full panic mode as the sun came up and I have to go to work / haven't slept yet ...  ..  I take a handful of sleep meds every night (6 melatonin/6 Benadryl / Seroquel/ Gabapentin and 6 of these Costco blue sleeping pills) it really sucks!

Yes. Training close to bed time is a bad idea. Specially legs.
