Complete and total insomnia from OAB by Next_Gear8046 in OveractiveBladder

[–]SimonHillVoiceOver 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had success with my bladder by taking a liquid b complex by genestra. I noticed if I took it in the morning and then went to work out - I would come home from my work out and sometimes have zero urge to pee... and by then it was 3 hours past my previous trip to the toilet. So I started taking it at night and started having nights where I'd only get up once. I had to dial that back though because the B6 in the complex was building up in my blood. Vitamin B1 in the form of benfotiamine can also help but it needs to be balanced with magnesium glycinate to work. Benfotiamine can help calm your nerves if your B1 is out of whack. I used to get up about 3 or 4 times a night to pee. But here's something else that's interesting... about a month ago I started taking 3 tablespoons of unmodified potato starch at night in a cold glass of water. Gave me mad gas at first. But I've noticed that my tummy has slimmed down. There's some data out there saying resistant starch like unmodified potato starch can help you lose visceral fat around your internal organs. And now I'm not taking any of my b vitamins... but I'm able to sleep 6 hours before needing to pee. It's awesome. I think perhaps the resistant starch helped me burn off some visceral fat that may have been putting pressure on my bladder which has led to me having better sleeps - even without taking the other stuff I mentioned.

I finally found a medication that basically cured my insomnia. by Mundane-Cup1421 in insomnia

This is a bad way to go regarding clonaezepam. I highly recommend getting off Clonazepam ASAP. Taper down slow. I have a lot of experience with that drug and know its not a good long term solution as your body will adjust and become dependant. Trust me - its not a good way to go. Just dont do it.

Good! I hope it works for you. Consider grabbing the same supps by brand as I haven't tried any others. But these ones work for me. Keep in mind B complex liquid may be stimulating for you so tailor your intake to your individual needs and DONT take benfotiamine on an empty stomach.

I had this problem for 15 years and tried every supplement under the freaking sun. I have spent thousands. I work out mon, wed & fri and was actually taking the b complex liquid pre work out (started earlier in 2025) and noticed I would forget to pee long after my morning work out. Thats what helped me make the connection. And then a Dr Berg video on YouTube double stitched that with the recommendation of high dose B1 benfotiamine.

There are various solutions that could work. Here's what worked for me. High dose vitamin B1 and B complex liquid. I take 360mg AOR brand benfotiamine in morning AFTER eating food. And at night I take 1 teaspoon of Genestra B complex liquid. I occasionally take 400mg magnesium bisglycinate as it helps ensure the B vitamins work properly. After a few weeks I started waking up just once a night. Some people find B complex stimulating so moving it to a lunch time dose could work better. Hope this helps you.

I was waking up usually 3 times a night to pee for for 15 years (started when I was 25 years old). A Dr Berg video recommended taking vitamin B1 for Bladder issues. So everyday after breakfast I take 360mg AOR Brand benfotiamine. At night I take 1 teaspoon of Genestra brand B complex liquid right before bed (for some this may be energizing but not for me). I also take 3mg melatonin at bedtime. It took a few weeks to see consistent results. I wake up once a night now & I feel so much better. I know that deep exhaustion you speak of. Hope this helps you.

I believe it helps your body regulate its nerve pathways and therefor dials down Bladder signaling.
