Can't sleep on Cycle, need help or advise

**BHarper** · 09-26-2005, 02:23 PM

I'm on a cycle of Test Undeconate (injectible form of andriol ). 1g/week, 1.5g the first week. I'm also running IGF 80mcg ED split between 3 shots. Since I started the test I have had a horrible time falling asleep. It takes 3-4 hours sometimes. I used to have a little problem, but I'd take a muscle relaxer and an anti-anxiety pill and be out.

Now I take the following in hope that I'll fall asleep:

(2) 2mg Lorazapam Anti-anxiety (less potent than xanax)
(2) 4mg Zanaflex (pretty strong MR, this would knock most people out itself)
(1-2) 10mg Ambien!

After 30 mins I still am not tired. I lay in bed reading boring shit trying to get tired. I've even tried popping one more of each after an hour and still nothing!

Can the test be causing this? This is horrible, I try to go to sleep around 11:30 so I can wake up at 7-7:30 but don't end up falling asleep till 3-4. It's draining me.

I can say though, that I am not really tired during the day which surprises me. I just have a hard time getting up. Once I'm up though, I'm pretty good. I figure that is the test thoug.

why dont you just try that natural supplement, melotonin.

if you take too much stuff to fall asleep your going to get either a reverse effect, or its going to knock you out for half the day.

I tried that before and it didn't do anything for me. That is why I was given Lorazepam in the first place.

Agreed - If possible - you got to try to get off the chemicals and try some melatonin or possibly kava kava or valirium (sp) most of these can be found at a health food or natural food store carrying herbs. Too much of the chemical compounds can have exactly the opposite effect you want and it sounds like you're loading up pretty good. Good luck man - hope it works out.

i had that problem before of not falling asleep and i was told it was because i need to reduce my Intake of Sustanon . Which i was taking Sustanon and Deca . I went to the doctor and got my blood taken at that time and i had high blood pressure. So if you know what to do about high blood pressure then it is probably the fix. IMO

i think my BP has been a little high recently. What is the best for that? asprin, Ibuprofen? What dosages?

i'll try this and melatonin again.
