I just wanted to share my experience with desiccated adrenal supplementation by Standard Process. I tried this product a year ago and it didn't seem to help, but that's probably because there were more things wrong then.
Fast forward to a few days ago. I decided to add it back in, and at first I didn't notice that it was helping me. However, the second day I took it, I slept deeper and longer that night. In the morning, it was like I could sleep in instead of being jerked awake by adrenaline/cortisol. I had good energy the whole day, but it still feels like I need to sleep to repair, but more of a normal sleep feeling, not a "adrenal fatigue" feeling. Since standard process is no longer selling their supplements online, I had to find a practitioner that sold them. This required me to drive 30 miles, and I bought 3 bottles.
This is the second thing I've got a really good response from. Even with less than stellar sleep, I could function pretty well. I'm not sure what's causing my hpa-axis dysnfunction, but I'll deal with a bandaid until I can figure it out.
