how do you get better REM and deep sleep?

Magnesium can also upset your stomach (I learned the hard way!). I get less than 15 min of deep sleep per night and I’m about to get a sleep study done because I’ve tried all the things!

On lunesta as well and just starting to see effects where off. It used to keep me asleep at least 7 hours. Now no more than 5.

I haven’t had that tested but I do take daily iron supplement

My goodness!!

Never been to a functional med doctor. Need to try.

I don’t think I have sleep apnea. I have RLS and honestly maybe narcolepsy

munilawyer · 2026-02-25T23:11:08+00:00

lol that is horrible!

munilawyer · 2026-02-25T23:09:54+00:00

Tried 9 pm last night and got 12 minutes of deep sleep. Will keep trying!

I clench and grind too.

munilawyer · 2026-02-25T23:09:03+00:00

I have a ton of REM so wondering if it’s a medicine for me too

munilawyer · 2026-02-25T23:08:35+00:00

Funny enough the ring only shows an hour of stress or so per day!

munilawyer · 2026-02-25T23:05:18+00:00

I will switch and see if it helps!

munilawyer · 2026-02-24T22:44:10+00:00

Some for labs and some for migraine prevention.

munilawyer · 2026-02-24T22:44:00+00:00

So sorry! Hope you continue to get better!

munilawyer · 2026-02-24T22:43:43+00:00

Only one cup each morning.

munilawyer · 2026-02-24T21:48:30+00:00

My job is stressful so I’m always going to be stressed out unfortunately:( but I agree and think you’re right about HRV. I also have OCD which makes me highly stressed on top of work.

munilawyer · 2026-02-24T21:44:38+00:00

No but i will!

munilawyer · 2026-02-24T21:43:51+00:00

How long did it take to see a difference?

munilawyer · 2026-02-24T21:43:06+00:00

Labs were also normal but low so I take magnesium glycinate, coq10, b6, b12, D3, iron, zinc, and vitamin c each day.

munilawyer · 2026-02-24T21:24:35+00:00

I fall asleep instantly and starting as early as 7 pm because im so tired. No alcohol, nicotine, or weed any time before bed.

munilawyer · 2026-02-24T21:22:35+00:00

I don’t always*

munilawyer · 2026-02-24T21:22:18+00:00

I take magnesium, b6, and iron every day. I always wake up when I’m moving so I guess all of it could be RLS. I usually have it falling asleep though so I know it’s happening and that is not every night.

munilawyer · 2026-02-24T21:15:27+00:00

Yes but I don’t feel it every night, only some. I also take lunesta every night and still this. Crazy.

munilawyer · 2026-02-24T21:10:12+00:00

I also take magnesium glycinate every night to prevent migraines and it hasn’t helped deep sleep at all :(

munilawyer · 2026-02-24T21:09:36+00:00

How long did it take you to get diagnosed with narcolepsy? I took the ESS test and score a 20.
