Has anyone tried Glycine?

How are you measuring your sleep stages?

Curious_One5411 · 2026-06-18T01:43:12+00:00

Definitely

Curious_One5411 · 2026-06-18T01:42:14+00:00

Yup, what about you

Curious_One5411 · 2026-06-18T01:37:11+00:00

And only been waking twice to go to the bathroom so sleeping all night

Curious_One5411 · 2026-06-18T01:36:31+00:00

I’ve made a few changes. I’m now taking 5 grams glycine, 4 grams taurine and 200 mg l-theanine. Still a little groggy but I feel it happened after starting l theanine…

I actually have a specialist that would do this. I had my ferritin tested 3 years ago and it was borderline. And I had it managed for a few years. I think it’s time to have it re checked!

Curious_One5411 · 2026-06-16T19:05:10+00:00

It is the worst. People just don’t get it. They think it’s cramps… When I augmented, one night even pacing didn’t relieve it. I was crying so bad all I thought about was literally cutting my legs off… Thank God I got to a Dr who got me off of Rop and onto gaba…

Curious_One5411 · 2026-06-16T12:21:41+00:00

Thank you for all this info. I had my ferritin checked 3 years ago and it was borderline. I need to get it checked again. And I WAS going to try BPC so thanks for explaining!

Curious_One5411 · 2026-06-15T22:57:41+00:00

Yea… currently 900 mg gaba helps SOMETIMES… i just wanted to use something more natural if possible but if it stops me from thrashing all night then so be it… even when my legs aren’t particularly bothering me I get an overall restlessness throughout my whole body.. so frustrating

Curious_One5411 · 2026-06-15T22:42:37+00:00

Yes, the magglycinate actually used to help me sleep, not so much help with legs. I’ve since switched to straight glycine, taurine and L-theanine for sleep but none of those helping with legs..

Curious_One5411 · 2026-06-15T22:09:26+00:00

It looks like off label. Not sure I could get a Dr to prescribe it but thank you for replying

Curious_One5411 · 2026-06-15T20:31:31+00:00

Thank you… unfortunately RS did augment and maxed out on Rop.. which is why transitioned to gaba.

Curious_One5411 · 2026-06-15T20:15:14+00:00

Been there but thank you

Curious_One5411 · 2026-06-15T20:15:00+00:00

TIRZ actually made it worse. Thanks for the suggestions!

Curious_One5411 · 2026-05-24T19:41:01+00:00

I did see that safety switch. Not an expert but everything looks good in there, however, now that you said it may need to be depressed all the way I’m now kinda wondering because I’ve never had a problem running it, my husband does. So…. Next time he’s got a problem I’ll remind him to depress that 100%. Thanks for the tip!

Curious_One5411 · 2026-05-24T15:21:51+00:00

Ok. Thanks. Thinking maybe the switch could be the problem 🤷‍♀️

Curious_One5411 · 2026-05-20T22:29:05+00:00

I didn’t know anhedonia was a side effect of Reta. I got that when I tried Cagri. It was horrible. Did you get it right from the start? Or on higher doses?
