Hey man. Did this just start during your cycle or has this been an issue all along? What time do you shoot in the day? Do you take a multi before bed? Do you have a shake?

In other words, what does your daily routine look like?

It did start with my cycle. My first cycle I had no problems sleeping. I'm really scared now to start the fina.

Right now I shoot every Monday and Thursday morning. I take a multi every day after lunch (around 12:00). Since I started my contest diet (Last Saturday) I have been drinking a shake before I go to bed. But before Saturday I did not drink one before bedtime. Last night I woke up at 1:00. I took an ambian and feel back to sleep an hour or so later then woke back up at 5:30. At least I was able to get some sleep but I must say that this is really running my body down. I’m thinking about going back to the doctors to see what they have to say.

Mrs. P, was the sleeping pill called Imovane by any chance? I tried it once, and had a bitter taste in my mouth the entire next day.

No, it wasn't Imovane. I can't remember what it was, some little blue pill or capsule if I remember right...this was about 7 yrs. ago.

I got a hot tub a few months ago and found that really helps me to fall asleep. I'll soak for a good 15 minutes, get out and cuddle up in a towel in a patio chair and within minutes I'm asleep.

Chadd, the dr. should be able to prescribe you something else, but often, sleep aids will impair performance the following day to some degree so be careful.
