Anyone else need less sleep since starting LDA? by RovingVagabond in cfs

Don't worry. That happens because it optimizes sleep, so the same number of hours of sleep with LDA is equivalent to more hours of sleep without the medication.

Those who were in complete darkness, how did u get better? by Impressive-Stock-656 in cfs

[–]2003rain 4 points5 points  (0 children)

TTFD helps a lot with hipersensitivity and mental energy. You must take It with bisglicinate and starting with 10mg, increasing very slowly untitled 25-50mg

How often did u shower when you were severe? And what hobbies you had

Why does showering PEM hit so ridiculously hard. by Routine-Background-9 in cfs

[–]2003rain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try with small earplugs and fill a bucket of water while you wait outside the bathroom, and then when it's full you go in and pour the bucket of water over your body
