I too, was absent from this forum for many years. For some reason I always thought you were just here forever, judging by your ultra high post count. :P

Oh that's only because of the word games

I'd probably only have about 100 otherwise

I'd like to take a Pokemon personality quiz to find out which Pokemon I am. That Pokemon might become my avatar.

:lol:
Currently a very stressful week, but I'm mostly in a really good mood and largely happier.

Why?
WHY??

I cheated. :lol: :lol: :lol:
I took 5-HTP. I guess it finally affected me after the 3rd week of trying.

Took it for sleep. Doesn't do anything at all.

Ended up with a weird positive neutral emotionality.
Doesn't necessarily meant stable, but more way less tense or stressed.

Of course I'm wary even if it did worked!
It's a serotonin precursor.

Yet another biochem intervention, with a bit of external but accidental goading, led me into an inner child who I favored too much.

That was on the other post.

Aaannddd still.
Yeah, good outcome. It worked.
Gave me a way to unlock one my mystery side quest hunt. Had my priorities been different, I'd keep taking it.

... Yet this is still not what I'm looking for.
I still deal with that crappy heavy arms in morning shite.

I'll start tappering myself out of it now that one stressful job week is over.

I used to use that htp stuff years ago

I think the trick is is to not expect too much from it

I don't expect much either.

Yet I got whatever effects people with mental health issues might be wanting from it...

But that's not what I'm looking for.

Just something for sleep.

Not staying and falling asleep.
To make sleeping not stressful and actually restful, then waking up way less painful getting out of bed over every day over and over.

My body feels heavy everytime I lay down on bed to sleep. Even for a short nap can disrupt me into a full blown inertia.

I want something that will help me as soon as I wake up starting most of my days not dysregulated.

I don't know.

Even melatonin did not solve it.
At best, it just made me give a more stable circadian rhythm as long as I have the hormones for it.

But that sheer inertia every waking up... That did not went away.
Sometimes any sleep aide makes morning inertia dragged longer or/and heavier.

Bad enough that not sleeping past a day is a better alternative.

At least you seem up for the challenge so with a bit of luck you might find the right remedy

It's nuts innit that there are doctors who are supposed to be the experts in these things but most of the time we end up working it all out for ourselves
