    anyone have sleeping problems after using aas? i use to sleep no problem then around thanksgiving about 12 weeks into my cycle i started waking up at 3am after going to sleep at ten. i have no problems falling asleep just sleeping more than 5 hours now. i thought after i came off it would get better but it hasn't. i just finished pct and would like to know if my sleep will go back to normal

    are you taking everything in the morning? earlier is better . are you suffering from anxiety or is there stuff on your mind more than regular , i find when my sleeping is off it snowballs for me .i also fall asleep fine though at 3.00 im up . lay in bed for a while sometimes an hour of tossing and turning before falling into a very weak sleep.

    there will be a reason for this but you gotta figure it out yourself man, it will probably be something in your diet, has it changed from before your cycle ? what about caffeine ? giving that up was a good thing for me to do. sometimes i wake at 3am hungry and cant sleep until I have something to eat, most night though I wake up to take a wazz, have a drink of water and can drop back off again.

    You can purchase Nytol at any local drug store.

    I've been buying the pound bags of GABA powder on eBay and mix about a 1/4 teaspoon amount into a protein drink before bed time.

    This works extremely well at falling/staying asleep and unfortunately it also makes getting up and staying awake difficult...even with one 3mg tab. Dont even get me started with 2 tabs, omg!

    To OP, i too have had difficulty sleeping since being on aas. Isnt it funny all people on this thread have to take sleeping aids...and dont they all use as well? I will say that since ive running a low dose gh cycle at 2-3iu day, its been much better. This is the ONLY thing that has shown some exceptional results. And as long as im using aas, i will run gh due to this issue.

    GHB or GBL is the best sleeping aid in the world.. you get stage 4 sleep for 4 hours... wake and redose.. you will recover twice as fast with it and it spikes your HGH levels. unfortunatley it is illegal in the US.. so much for land of the free huh?
