Sleep Aids?

[marvelous54]

I know a lot of guys have trouble sleeping, to say the least, while juicing. Fortunately I've always been able to pop a melatonin and a flexaril and have no prob getting 10hrs in. Does either one of these present any problems as far as conflicting with the gear?

I dont believe so. If I am incorrect hopefully one of the more experienced members will chime in and set the record straight.

Melatonin is fine to take with your cycle, you should search my herbal sleeping aids too.

Sorry X, somewhat new to the board. How do I find your herbal sleeping aids?

 

[asianlover]

isn't flexaril a muscle relaxer or painkiller?

Only sleep aid that works for me is Ambien, 10mg. Just don't try to stay awake on it, you'll start doing weird things.

used ambien for over 1 1/2 until it stopped working correctly. I started waking up 4 hours into the night and the only way i was able to fall back to sleep was by taking a half of another ambien. I finally switched to lunesta. Took me a week to get used to it, but the sleep is more natural, dreams are natural and I'm not groggy the next day. Once you get past the quick onset of ambien rush after taking them and get used to lunesta or restorils, u'll sleep great. I tried all natural remedies and sleep wasn't more than a few hours at a time..

For me melatonin do the trick. And I'm interested in Mr. X's herbal helps. I'm against any chemical drug for sleep. You'll get your sleep but that's more garbage getting stored into your body. More side effects, more medical treatments, more money for doctors.

I use a 1 mg melatonin sublingual tablet each night at bedtime, and it works well. I added OxyCalm last week at 2 sprays in each nostril 2 X per day, and now I sleep like a log..........no, like a little kitty cat............

Point is, OxyCalm has helped my sleep greatly.

Klonapins (I thought it was spelled Clonapin, but I guess I was wrong heh) always made me get a kinda nautious feeling. So I couldnt take those. Xanax put me on my ass... I ate one last night. Love em, when I can get em.

Sleep for me is extremely difficult. I posted my background on this issue in another thread and its fairly long to retype.

The short story is, MY BACK IS MEGA JACKED UP! It causes me severe discomfort almost constantly and makes getting even a somewhat decent nights sleep difficult to say the least. I have tried multiple sleep aids including Ambien, Sonata, NyQuill, Tylenol PM, Benadryl, Xanax... to name a few. I also smoke weed on a nightly basis.

I find I have to rotate due to building up of tolerances, which really gets old after a while.... but ya gotta do what ya gotta do. Im really not a fan of many herbal remedies, just because they dont seem to help a person with my situation. I ordered a bottle of Oxycalm that should be in on Monday that I am anxious to try out. Hopefully that will help me sleep a little more soundly.

Sorry X, somewhat new to the board. How do I find your herbal sleeping aids?

I found them for you:
try these
Kava Kava Root
Passionflower Herb
Valerian root
Raspberry leaf (tea)
Chamomile tea
Scullcap
Passionflower

They are relaxers/sleeping aids, by relaxing you'll be able to easily fall asleep.

kava kava and valerian work well. i switch between those and 50mg of trazadone

Only sleep aid that i'm sold on is GHB. Been using it for a few months now and i love the stuff, it knocks me out like a rock....................

Melatonin works ok for me, but I have weird dream on it. Xanax works awsome, but can be habit forming.
