    Anything Worth Taking For Sleep / CNS

    I have really bad insomnia and I've been taking melatonin daily but its only worth taking it at the same time everyday (4am) If I take it at around 10pm-2am ill wake up like 2-3 hours later and its impossible to go to sleep from that point on.

    Is their anything worth trying to promote sleep? Any other tips to try? Im pretty active so I dont know what else to implement. I dont take any stimulants. Staying away from light/sound when I'm trying to get to bed. I set my alarm up at 11am but I still dont get tired until like 4am-9am..

    Also I feel like my central nervous system is super fried/stressed. I get lots of muscle tension and tightness everywhere in my body. And overall feel very stressed... Anything worth taking for that?

    Thanks all.

    Its a catch 22. Damned if you do and damned if you dont

    OK, I am going to sound old, but a large glass of milk preferably warm/hot if you can (otherwise just cold).

    It has a very *slight* sedative effect (due to trytophan). Sure it's not as powerful as drugs but it does have some mild sedative effect.
    NB: Side effects might include slightly enhanced muscle growth and slightly improved recovery --> as side effects go they aren't so bad

    Personally I tried ZMA and for me anyway it was less effective than milk, and a **** lot more expensive, so I don't recommend that.

    I'd check with a sleep doctor or try a sleep test to see exactly what's going on. You don't want to have to take prescription-strength sleep medicine every night if it's unncessary, not the most sustainable thing.

    I cannot take regular melatonin and sleep, but if I take 10mg of the fast dissolve tablets, I sleep really well. But that's only for short term use. The longer I take it, the harder it is to sleep all night. A muscle relaxant may help the muscle tension and in turn may also help you sleep better. I have a sleep disorder called idiopathic hypersomnia which involves frequent arousals in my sleep and alpha wave intrusion into every stage of my sleep. One of the things that can lead to this is pain. So you could be getting poor sleep quality from that pain and not even know it except for the effects of being tired all the time and waking up feeling like you didn't sleep all night.

    Rest will fix your CNS. You need to rest and recover instead of hitting it hard and being on the go 24/7.


    Ok, for sleep..........
    You need to take the proper steps to practice healthy sleep habits. Don't get home and try to go right to bed. Or do something stimulating and then expect your body to unwind enough to sleep. Slow down, relax, turn the lights off or down, stay off your phone, keep the TV off. All that light is stimulating in a way. Maybe try meditation before bed or within a couple hours of going to bed. Dark room 30mins before bed I feel can be pretty important with letting your body unwind.

    If you take those steps and still have issues, some good sleep and relaxation supplements are out there. L-theanine, phenibut, melatonin. Some good sleep aids that have a lot blended in: Redcon1 Fade Out, Blackstone Labs Anesthetized, Metabolic Nutrition Relaxitrol
    Progressive overload + progressive eating = gains. Simple as that!
