Well I started my dreaded pct from my 7 month cycle last week. I have been sleeping absolutely horrible lately, I had not really been having any problems until I came off. I always wake up 4 hours after I finally make it to sleep WIDE awake, if I go to bed at midnight I am up at 4am just sitting there, and if I go to bed at 3-4am I am up at 7-8 full of energy, I get a protein shake and go back to bed because I know my body needs more sleep, I have no clue why I am so awake. Usually I can just sleep sleep and sleep on if I really want to, now its a chore to stay asleep. Also been taking 750mg Magnesium before bed and upped my Melatonin to 6mg...still not helping. I have been stressed lately, just stupid things, but its like when I wake up these things instantly pop into my mind and my brain starts going 200mph and I can get myself to calm back down. I dunno if its something I am taking that is making it that much worse, because I usually dont get too stressed out. Here is the timing/dosing of what I take throughout the day currently:
Morning:
Retain- 1 cap
Activate- 1 cap
DHEA- 200mg
USPLabs C2- 3 caps
Cissus- 2 grams
Lunch:
Retain- 1 cap
Activate- 1 cap
Late afternoon:
Retain 1 cap
Activate 1 cap
USPLabs C2- 2 caps (as preworkout booster or for work, work late at a bar)
Cissus-2 grams
Animal pack multi-vitamin
Before Bed:
Clomid- 150mg
ZMA- 3 caps
Vitamin B6- 200mg
Magnesium- 750mg
Melatonin- 3-6mg
I think that is everything I am currently taking, adding powerfull/igf/fenugreek/longjack next week. Really the only things on there I havent taken before is the Retain, C2, and clomid. Havent taken activate before either, but supposedly it helps sleep. I dont know if it is one of those that is screwing up my sleep patterns, but this is starting to drive me nuts. The other night I went to sleep at 12:30am and was up at exactly 4am, laid there until 7am when I had to get up for class, had a good workout that day too which is quite weird....I never use any stimulants like the C2, and I am assuming Retain is somewhat of a stim since it increases T3, but I think I may be extremely sensitive to stims.
Does anyone have any tips on how to get this under control? Im gonna not take the C2 tomorrow and see how things go...
