Really need some help on trying to sleep, cortisol is highest at 12am

[Tommy Wall]

I´ll guess that 25-50 mg is a fairly low dose. I spoke to a friend who is also taking it and he takes 200mg at night. His opinion is that it makes you drowsy and helps sleeping quality meaning less wakes up etc.. but he also says it not a sleeping pill its different. He takes both though.

After looking up Quetiapine as a sleeping aid it does get many good reviews. Most of the people use 25 mg a night. I see you're using 50 mg at night, after a time did you have to increase your dose from 25mg to 50mg?

Yeah, I started with the 25s but after a few months I found i needed to add another 25mgs to get the job done so started ordering the 50s. It's been about 2 years at 50 and I'm not feeling any resistance or need to increase the dosage 50mgs just works for me.

Stuffs unique I'm consistently impressed by just how well it works never fails me.
Takes about 15mins to get into my system at first, I was putting it under my tongue leaves a pretty bad taste found it works just as well to chew it up and swallow it down quickly swallowing it whole it didn't seem to get into my system quick enough.
Next thing I know I'm waking up like 7hrs later.

Be interesting to see if it works as well anyone else here?

I just ordered some from relableRX through your link. I ordered the 25mg and the 50mg, very good price. I will post my results. I have a question. When using your method of chewing the tab, do you need to take it an empty stomach?

Please let us know your results. How is it that these things are available in India like that, are these meds OTC over there?

No I don't think it matters its a tiny little pill. I just chew it up liquify it in your mouth with a gulp of water taking it like that gets into your system quick

Markee thanks for all information on Quetiapine, It would be nice if I get the same results as you.

There are some medical professionals out there who claim Quetiapine causes Brain Damage. I do not see any study's included with these accusations though. Furthermore one would think any sort of brain damage of shrinkage would be from higher doses 300mg and up. Taking of 25-50mg once per day/evening is far from the 300mg these dr's are talking about.

if anyone is interested in reading, think its more of an opinion.

coz its saves you a chunk of money
Cost of meds and care in US is not inline with most of the world you know things are fuct when your forced to buy your med from another country and leave the country just to afford care
Nice to have a way to get over on the system I'm sure it won't last and some politician will get payed off to pass some bill to close off this small loophole

But we know that poor sleep definitely hammers the brain. So there is a trade off.

True. But one would think the damage from sleep deprivation as reversible, where actual brain shrinkage/damage as non reversible.

"It's the first study to show (if only in animals) that sleep loss can lead to irreversible brain cell damage."

I know Quetiapine has many side effects, so I can't recommend it. But I'm planning on trying it and see what results I get. I think I'll start will a very low amount.

@Everydaystruggle did you ever get your cortisol/sleep figured out? I’ve had two 24 hour cortisol tests done with results similar to yours. Low in the AM then jacked the rest of the day/night. I started taking Rhodiola and do feel better during the day, but still struggling with sleep. Just curious if you ever got it all hammered out?​

Take 25mg of micronized DHEA before bed - it lowers cortisol big-time. Plus, it's cheap; get it on Amazon.

 

[MNguy]

I’ve been considering giving this a shot. I might give it a go. Do you find it helps you sleep better?

 

[ERO]

I tested the same as you on a 4-tube cortisol test. Low all day, spiked at night and decent sleep was impossible. The 25mg of DHEA stops (or lowers) cortisol and I sleep great now at least 90% of the time. On nights where I go to sleep and wake up late due to a cortisol surge, I take a second dose and get back to sleep in about 30 minutes.

I take this one.
