I've just been doing a little experimentation
with my fish oil. Regardless of what people
say, it does have a stimulating effect - not
mind racing stimulating - but just wanting
to get things done stimulating. It's great
for lack of motivation.But, taken too close to bed - it doesn't
make it hard to fall asleep (like caffene)
- but it makes it difficult to stay asleep,
let go, it seems to give you vigilence, something
you don't need before bed. To sleep well
you need complete 'let go' before bed.
Thats why AP's work for sleep (in some)
because they decrease motivation and promote
let go by blocking certain dopamine curcuitsLithium, vitamin C, etc, can also work to
lower this dopamine.Smokers taking nicotine patces get the exact same reaction - vivid dreams - active dreams - panic awakenings. Nicotine an MAO(B) raises dopamine too much during the
evening.Take your uppers in the morning
and your downers at night.Good Luck
