Supplement Plan

The big medication I was taking to help with sleep is Eszopiclone. I ended up staying on that one the longest prior to this group due to it being the only one that seemed to help at all (went from taking ~3hrs to fall asleep to ~2hrs) but I’ve tried any you can imagine or google. Since class I’ve stopped taking it. Falling asleep takes a noticeably longer amount of time, but I understand it’s a process.

See if you can switch to a tea or coffee. You can cool it in the fridge and add honey to be more like the redbull. The energy drinks tend to be hard on your heart and your sleep. Whichever way you go, try not to drink one after lunch or 3pm at the latest. Caffeine has a 6-hour halflife. You shouldn’t need the melatonin unless there’s a reason I don’t know about. Thank you for sharing!
