I decided to make this week's experiment sam-e...not sure how I feel about it. No issues falling asleep, but I've had trouble staying asleep. And this lack of sleep kind of negates the benefits, leaving me feeling a bit shaky and overdriven. I'm at 1200mg, so I am on the upper end of dosing, but from everything I've read, this is an optimal zone to achieve full benefits (short of going to 1600mg).
I have started to notice that I'm feeling unusually happy and less fatigued, but again, it's being countered by the lack of sleep.
Thinking about lowering the dose if it doesn't smooth out in a few days. Or if the benefits don't prove amazing by then, dropping it (for $40/month, hell with it). Anyone else have a similar experience?
