Okay, hopefully somebody can explain this but when it comes time to sleep (which is hard most nights) I take a small dose beta blocker with a small dose benzo with a few beers, just to get to sleep. I realize that I had to keep increasing the amounts of each so I backed off and went sleepless a couple days. One day example is today. I got 2 hours of sleep, and one of the best herbs for me is Skullcap. I'm out. I noticed 5-HTP makes me sleepy and is serotonin exhibiting, but SAM-e makes me feel well but offers nothing in regard to sleep.
So are there any daytime things to take to 'desensitize' my night time problems? GABA-A-B-orC antagonists, that might make everything 'right' at night?
I realize the Beta B+benzo+alcohol IS dangerous, but it really doesn't sedate me well, to be honest.
