Just a quick one. Mirtazapine has been my go to drug for 8 hours sleep for a couple of years, usually putting me out at a small dosage-I cut a 15mg tablet in approximately 3 pieces and take one piece (so about 5mg).
The drug does not give me refreshing N3 sleep but gets me to what I term 2.8 or 2.9.
I always take 5-HTP and l-theanine (serotonin precursors) and 500mg of Mg 1 hour before bed and did the same last night when I dosed 500mg of gabapentin and did not take mirth-as-a pea (mirtazapine).
Quick reflection on sleep quality: more 'knocked out on gaba with less dreaming. Negatives are I had to sit up in bed and not move for 20 minutes following gaba because I was so 'punch-drunk'. I remain a little spaced out 3 hours later and am moving slowly, which does not happen with 5mg mirtazapine.
Conclusion: for me working 2 days a week I would not take gaba the night before work because I would not be safe commuting by motorcycle. I would take gaba with a day off the next day.
Any thoughts on relatively safe non addictive drugs?
