    what to take for sleep???

    Hey, fellas. I'll be doing my first run with Tren in 5 days, and I know that a lot of you complain about not being able to sleep while on. Is there anything that I can get OTC that will help me sleep WITHOUT making me tired the next day when I wake up? I have a bunch of Tylenol PM and it works great, but I always feel SOOOO drowsy the next day.

    Thanks a lot, fellas,
    MS

    ZMA is should help aid in making you fall asleep.. you MAY BE kind of groggy for the first few minutes of when you awake but after that you will feel refreshed..

    I like ZMA as well, it knocks me out. Try out MELATONIN
    as well.

    Hey Judy!

    Melatonin, even though it's only an over-the-counter aid, actually works pretty good. Just make sure you have a good eight hours ahead of you in which to sleep. If you have to get up in six hours you are going to be groggy.

    For prescription I highly recommend Tranxine. Common prescription. It just slips your mind into neutral and gets you to sleep. Others like Atavan (sp?), but you end up having really boring, really vivid, dreams... like you're driving through Nebraska for eight hours.

    Any over-the-counter antihistimine will work too, and it's as cheap as drugs get.

    Does anybody know of a herbal or natural sleep aid... I know there are ones you can buy right at the supermarket, and I heard they work. Just forgot the name. For the record almost all sleeping meds run some risk of dependancy, id like to try something natural.

    Drink a big glass of milky milk before you go to sleepy sleep and take a hot shower. Sleep in tighty whities with no shirt on and wear socks.

    Melatonin wouldn't hurt either.

    every night I take 3 zma tabs and 1 melatonin tab

    On nights I cant sleep, mainly Sunday nights, I take 2 tablespoons of Nyquil, 2 sleeping pills, and 1 melatonin on an empty stomach. If that mix does not put you into coma, call the doctor!

    I say melatonin. Some people say try 5atp and I used to use kava going to get some again soon. Otc sleep aids suck (unisom, tylenol pm).

    you can buy melatonin at the supermarket.

    or you can buy melatonin at the market, which is super.

    but i've never seen supermelatonin at the market.

    2IU's of GH before bed. Just see how it goes before you start taking any sleep aids. I'm on tren and sleep like a baby but i'm on GH and IGF. GH works.!

    Bro, who r u talking to, a five year old? BTW, I helped open the good old Smathers Wellness Center and chose a lot of the equipment for it. If it wasn't for me, there'd be no Hammer Strength in there. You like?

    So it's not a hijack, OTC melatonin is OK, but .25 Halcion, .5 Xanax, Lunesta all good script choices. I'm not a junkie, just a doctor.

    Yea, I don't lift there anymore LOL. I did about a year ago for 3 years. Now I workout at a university in the midwest. I remember the hammer strengths at UM. That gym was very very very nice. I miss it! You got some money, huh bruh? Did you get that Viper?

    ya ambien, just don't try and stay up on it. my mom fell down the stairs a couple times on that shit. you'll get a deep sleep and wake up energized though.

    What about L-Tryptophan?
    Doesn't that start the serotonin in your brain that helps trigger calmness?
    The only thing I've read is that it should be taken on an empty stomach.

    BUMP! Seriously, F-ing BUMP! Will Ambien help while I'm on Tren ? My sleeping SUCKS! I will not be able to ever bump this dose... it's too tough as it is unless I get an ancillary that's stronger than benadryl.

    ambien will definetely help bro... i just don't know if u want to take it every nite... just make sure u have 7 or 8 hrs to sleep... cause it puts me out for a solid 7 or 8... wake up a little groggy but not too bad...
