Allright guys so i work 2 different jobs, trying to make the ends meet. I've been doing it for just about 6 months and i feel like sh*t. The problem is that i don't sleep at a specific time. A few nights a week i sleep from about 1 AM to 9 AM and the rest of the nights from about 6 AM to 2PM. I feel tired and groggy most of the time and i'm feeling a little depressed. It's been so long since i've woken up feeling refreshed. I know that what i'm currently doing is not the best thing for my body, but i need to do it. So does anyone have any suggestions?

cAMP! Don't know what it is about that stuff, but I really feel so much more rested and refreshed and I rarely get any more than 6 hours of sleep. Although, when I wake up in the middle of the night, it's hard to get back to sleep. It's just so easy to wake up on the stuff, which can be a bad thing if you're only up for a midnight piss.

Sorry to hear about the job situation man. If you are not taking Xtend, then try that. Unfortunately getting enough sleep is just what you have to try to do.

I've started on lean dreams and take it about an hour before whatever time i'm going to bed and it's helped a lot. It doesn't crash you but just seems to allow a nice sleep and when I wake up I feel fine.

A healthy dose of BOOTY and you will sleep like a rock!

Acetyl-L-Carnitine is my favorite supp to take 1st thing in the morning to get me going.

Well id prob just look for another job if possible man, iv been there and it sucks except i stuck it out with yellow jacket energy pills which ill never do again and dont sugest either. If you work in a dark place or inside all day or are working nights that might be the depresent prob too, some people need some uv rays or w/e.


Well there's my 2cents good luck bro hope you find something that helps.

Many have reported EXCELLENT sleep and a large boost in Vitality during the day while supplementing with Poseidon.

Poseidon (450 grams) By Nimbus Nutrition

Run a search on it and read about others experience's. I think you'll find the solution/supplement your searching for.

You want to be sure your diet is in order first of all. When peoples schedule gets "out of the norm" they tend to eat terribly. This can contribute greatly to fatigue, etc...

Powerful has been simply awesome for what you seek. Others worthy of mention are Camphobolic, and
Activate. Have not tried these but hear good things: Lean Dreams, REM3, pGHT.

[Team Enzyte]

a good multi along with extra b-complex throughout the day should help alot. I take my multi with breakfast & bedtime shake & break b-50's into halves & take a halve with 2 or 3 of my daily meals.

thanks for your answers guys. Man i guess i was hoping for a little bit of a consensus on this, but it seems that different supplements worked for different people. So far i've got cAMP, Xtend, lean dreams, Acetyl-L-Carnitine, Poseidon, Powerful, Camphobolic, Activate, Lean Dreams, REM3, pGHT. Guess i'll start readin up on them. Thanks again

Poseidon and powerfull give me great sleep, didn't really notice anything sleep wise on Activate(although it's really good in the gym). The others I can't comment on as I've yet to use them.

[rxp1997]

5grams of GABA before bed did the job for me- by nature I don't sleep alot. with GABA a 4hr night felt like 8hrs when I woke up in the morning.

[prld2gr8ns]

Oh yeah, forgot those as I was just going by the list but GABA and Tryptophan are really good to.

Nothing gives me restful sleep like powerfull old version. havent tried the new yet.

Honestly, the best thing for me when I have a hectic schedule like yours is one of the OTC sleep aids (diphenylhydramine HCL, etc). IMO they will be much more effective at putting you to sleep than any of the supplements mentioned.

As far as after you've woken up, give Clear Edge a shot. It's really cheap over at NP right now and honestly, I've never used a caffiene free nootropic supplement that is this effective. I know exactly the feeling that you are describing....as far as waking up groggy...and this supplement is the only one that's really worked for me (even when caffiene doesnt help).

Another thing (which isn't a supplement) that you might want to try is deprenyl. I've found this to be extremely good when I have a sleep schedule as far as yours, and really seems to be quite good for reducing depression. Good luck!

You may be interested in Performance Pudding Nite-Time...soon to be released!

It does a fantastic job of easing you to sleep, so you feel refreshed in the morning... ;-)

gotta agree with this. after awakening i take in 2g ALCAR and 3g tyrosine. gets me focused and ready to take on the day. these are much more effective after a long fast such as sleep IME.
