In reply to My custom blend for sleep/anxiety, posted by MoparFan91 on August 29, 2005, at 16:45:57
Well, last night was the first night for use of my customized GABA supplement blend (known as the Sleeper's GABA Stack). I took it at about 10:30 p.m.
After about 1 to 1 1/2 hours, I became sleepy and a little sedated, so I went to bed. I fell asleep fairly readily. But. possibly due to the Abilify I was taking, I woke up four hours later. However, I managed to get to back to sleep 1/2 hour later and slept for another 4-5 hours. I woke up at 9:30 a.m. pretty refreshed and motivated. I did feel a very slightly hungover and a little sleepy at first in the morning/midday, though, but overall, I felt pretty good and clear headed.
Overall, this stack seems to show some promise.
I've always seemed to get some insomnia from Abilify, though. I may probably see about reducing dose to 2.5mg every other day. Abilify has a 75 hour half-life which is long enough to even permit every other day dosing.
