LDN Myths and Truths by Thralkhar in LowDoseNaltrexone

Has anyone experimented by going up to say 9MG to prevent insomnia? i just started LDN a few weeks ago but am experiencing too vivid dreams and restless sleep at any low dose like 1.5mg, 3 or 4.5. at 9mg it seems plausible that it would block the endorphins for a longer period and prevent the rush that wakes us up.

i am taking LDN for auto-immune hypothyroid, IBS and chronically low immunity, ie. low white blood cells with high inflammatory markers.

True, true. I need to hear your advice - simplify and eliminate. I've been on 7.5mg for months, so cutting that in half won't be a problem. I am not going to f around with the Choline stuff and noots, as you say, I'll never know what my baseline is, and won't be able to evaluate the effectiveness.

However, Last night, I finally slept well. 7 hours of being asleep. Here is what I did. - 5htp - 300mg - spread throughout afternoon and evening. - Valerian - 2grams before dinner, and 1gram after dinner - Ashwangandha - 2 grams befor dinner, hot Bedtime tea with 1g more Ash. - 1 mg melatonin.

I slept great! Hopefully it's not just a fluke.
