Man this is getting rediculus! I have been having one heck of a time getting to and staying asleep! I dont want to take Rx meds and lately the only thing working for me is benadryl, which is horrible!

Heres what I have been taking:
Melatonin 1-3 mg
Valerian Root 1g
Calms Forte 3 pill

So I switched it up:
l-Tryptophan 500-1g
Gaba 200-400mg
L-theanine 100-200mg

chammomile tea, sleepy time tea, magnesium 250mg, zinc 25 mg (Mag and zinc are taken separate to above to minimize interaction)

STILL CANT GET TO SLEEP!!!

Supps/Meds:
Stablon 3x day 12.5 mG

All the rest are taken in the am
Glucos/Chond (standard dose)
Cissus 1.2g
Beta Carotein 10,000 IU
Astragalus 470 mg
Omega 3's 12-18 g
D3 (cholocalciferol) 2000iu
DHEA 25mg
Milk Thistle 200mg
Multi
complete magazimes
acidolphilus
B-complex

I am also on TRT (testosterone) and last time I had my blood work done it was 267 (free and total) out of a possible range of 241-800+ I know low testosterone is associated with poor sleep, anxiety mood swings, depression, etc

so that may be the culprit but I am not sure...I asked my doc if we could increase the dose and he doesnt want too, he is afraid that it will make me more moody, depressed, anxious, etc!!! I am certain that it will probably make my Quality of Life better! Im in my low 30's and there is no reason I should have the testosterone levels of a 50-60 year old man! (no offense to you older men out there)

Hard to scape the irony here, dream!!! Wait for answers from LifeMirage or GodConsciousness. Play some video games or watch tv in the meantime. Sorry!
