Hey All, I know this is common but I'm looking for suggestions. I did a search through forums and did not find anything new out. I just started a cycle and am not able to sleep. This ALWAYS happens to me and I have not found a way around it which I know kills my gains. I use Benadryl to fall alseep, it always works, but 2 hours later I start waking up every 30 mins and have a horrible time going back to sleep. I actually feel awake. I even tried taking some of my ladies Ambien 10mg and it didn't help. This isn't something that normally stops for me after a few weeks. What the heck are people doing to stop this??? Getting ready to go bust out some quads but feel like a peice of shit. Going to have to hit 50MG of ephedrine with some caffeine and aspirin just to workout. (Yeah, just what a sleepless guy needs to take right? Stimulants lol)

I am in same boat. Why you need sleep ? Just surf the bolex 🙂 Seriously dont take ambien or other shit. You can try with some melatonin. I sleep 4-6 hours per night and another two during the day.

I have the same problem on workout nights. Tossing and turning all freakin night. You ever tried Unisom? I tried it last night and it put me to sleep at 9 oclock.

Unisom? Is that an OTC sleep med? Never tried it. Weird thing for me is I can fall asleep fine, but staying asleep sucks. I wonder if they make any type of time released melatonin. Forgot about melatonin.

tell me about it. I am in the same boat. I take some melatonin and valerian root and hope for the best. I I don't fall asleep after laying there for like 20 mins. I just grab something to read or hit the comp till I feel tired again. One day I ran and lifted in the same day and still couldn't fall asleep......gotta be the test man. I Just don't want to get hooked on any sorta sleeping pills. Sooner or later you gotta sleep ....... right? It would make me angry that I knew you grow when you sleep and I couldn't so it made it even harder to fall asleep because I was so pissed that I couldn't.

I get mine at Wal-Mart. http://www.unisom.com/index1.asp
