Hey folks, I am wondering if there is some current trending information on how to lower cortisol, or what the current information is for what the MOST EFFECTIVE (and most sane) ways of lowering cortisol are. Looks like mine is 100 above normal due to my depression or whatever is causing the issue. I am sure this topic has been covered here before and I am aware of some ways of lowering cortisol but was wondering if you've heard any updates, or if you happen to be well articulated can lay out a framework for the most robustly proven vs least robust. Right now I don't have time to research the topic because I am researching something else so I hope to return to some good information when I have more time. Otherwise when I get the time I think it will be worth me collecting information that I can find and posting it in here to answer my own question for others if someone else hasn't beaten me to the punch by then.
In the meantime I will be researching how sleep deprivation and insomnia affects epigenetics and genetics (among other because I want to find specific environmental conditions and lifestyles that could decrease any negative impacts or, if there is a best adaptive strategy to sleep deprivation situations (when sleep is impossible. I have a strong inclination to think adaptive strategies could be highly beneficial to insomniacs so I'm hunting the information now, hopefully not to get distracted.... me being distracted the reason that I even came here to ask this question, lol. I have chronic A.D.D. , I'll try to go back and focus on what i was doing)
