Fuck sleep hygiene. ME sleep problems have nothing to do with good sleep hygiene, and sleep restriction is dangerous and pointless for us.Yesterday I was dehydrated and started hallucinating for the first time ever and it was scary.
However, I am on the mend from CFS/ME and am now trying this therapy. .
Very interesting, I hadn't read about a link between D and sleep before. But I did start sleeping better after doing topical D. Thanks for the tip.High dose Vitamin D made me sleep as deep as ever, but my sleep wake cycle is still messed up pretty much. It all has to do with neurotransmitters, which are messed up with CFS patients. Melatonin synthesis needs serotonin, one of the most important neurotransmitters, that controls sleep amongst other things
Wow how did I miss this amazing insight? sam-E may have nootropic qualities and help produce neurotransmitters. It also may help repair liver damage in pubmed studies and you can get it at pipingrock.com I'm going to get tracheotomy again because I can't exhale and the asv doesn't work that well- what a terrible journeyYou NEED sufficient SAMe!! It makes sure Histamin can get decreased and it helps create melatonin.
I was sorta thinking the same thing. But in one sense it isn't, as it doesn't give you the fast rush of Xanax (alprazolam), so the dose typically doesn't escalate fast even in people with "addictive personalities" (Whatever that means, exactly).kklonopin isn't addictive? How's that possible?
There's some psychological subtlety between addiction and dependence, I think, but I'm not the one to ask what exactly it iswell if you can't function without a substance, that sure seems like addiction to me.
yes, in a blogpost on my profile page but it's a tiresome readwhat has helped you be on the mend from CFS/ME?
is progesterone something males take as well? I'm assuming you are a female.
well if you can't function without a substance, that sure seems like addiction to me.
