I’ve been struggling with sleep issues for over a decade now. My Doctor has prescribed me all sorts of medication, all of which has had many adverse side effects. What I do know that works, is Xanax. My wife was prescribed it for some stress issues and occasionally will give me one so I can finally sleep. Obviously asking my Doctor, “can I have Xanax” Will not go well. I’ve eluded to it in ways and the response has always been along the lines of “that’s habit forming, I’d rather you try this”. Of the many medications prescribed, none have worked. Resorting to the dark web is something I’d really rather not do. Fentanyl laced drugs took my sister and it’s a road I hope to not have to explore. Any suggestions?

    Please invest in William J. Walsh’s book “Nutrient Power”, & consider the experiments in it.

    I’ve replicated both his undermethylated-DNA disorder treatment and his pyrrol disorder treatment, each 4 times, various ways.

    He mis-identifies/fails-to-explain each of those correctly, so just in case you’re ( or anybody who reads this is ) in one of those 2, here are the corrected versions.

    Many are undermethylated-DNA without it being disorder level.

    Undermethylated-DNA disorder { stridency, symbol-fixation, drivenness, “high voltage”, sharply formed face ( sharply protruding nose, e.g. ), STRESS, etc… }

    All autistics are undermethylated-DNA ( I’m autistic ), a subset of “schizophrenia” is, a subset of depression is, etc…

    Enteric-coated ( he doesn’t mention this part ) SAM-e, taken about 40mins before breakfast, with clear water ( no carbs, no sweeteners, artificial or otherwise ), & one can begin breakfast once the nausea hits.

    It took me 3 months for it to change me, and then I discovered that living with ZERO stress meant.

    I’d never imagined that, before.

    However, it took away my academic-drive, and that … isn’t on.

    I’ve also done it with Methionine supplementing, which took 4 months, and I wasn’t taking enough to reach the zero-stress mode.

    Now I know that I can “take the edge off”, if I need to, with Methionine ( more gradual ) or enteric-coated SAM-e, enough to make life more bearable.

    Pyrrol-disorder { the PTSD-RAGEs, amygdala-highjack is always pressing one, and continuously trying to prevent it is brutal. I’ve since read that autistics have a 2x sized amygdala, which means that our amygdala-to-cortex ratio is off by a factor of 2, which certainly is likely part of what’s going on. Pyrrol-disorder is far-too-low-zinc, far-too-much-copper. There is a different disorder which goes the other way, too-much-zinc, too-little-copper, which, iirc, is associated with “explosive disorder” or some personality-disorder named something like that }

    the treatment for this is much-quicker, but brutal.

    Take arachidonic-acid precursor ( evening primrose oil, I was taking between 0.5 & 1g / day )

    take P5P form of one of the vitamin-B’s

    take alternating zinc gluconate & zinc picolinate. Do NOT take zinc citrate ( hits too fast, chemistry-suddenly-changes, one becomes dangerous to oneself & ones around one, and one probably ought be locked in a padded room, if one indulges in that idiocy. 0.5h to 4h is the dangerous time, after taking uncoated zinc citrate )

    When Walsh says that the dosage of zinc required to correct the wrong-distortion of chemistry that our bodies are maintaining, he isn’t kidding.

    The Tolerable Upper Limit for zinc is 50mg.

    I needed 200mg/day to get the razor-edge balance which removed pyrrol-disorder’s force from my life…

    It was the 1st time in my life I’d ever been simply happy.

    Nothing like that.

    But having an alarm get me every 6h to take another zinc…

    destroying my sleep…

    you can see part of why I discontinued that one, too.

    Fundamentally, I’m Vajrayana, old-testament style: ALL one’s basis must be developed-mental-force.

    ALL healing ought be of mind.

    Eternity doesn’t “take prisoners”, and if I want my Soul/CellOfGod/ChildOfGod/Continuum ripped out from the tarpit of its unconsciousness, then I’ve got to EARN it.

    So, I’m on my own, forcing gradual change into this nervous-system, through right-living & meditations, etc.

    Maybe I’ll succeed before I die.

    I want the momentum in-place for the next someone who has to inhabit this series-of-lives, however.

    Eternity keeps killing all who are trapped within it: if one wants out from Eternity, then dissolving-into-OceanOfAllAwakeSouls/Allgod is the only alternative I know-of.

    Anyways, I hope you’ve got informational-leverage for you to be able to understand why the book “Nutrient Power” is important, & I hope you’ve got enough contextual-understanding to know how to make maximally-effective use of those 2 treatments IF either 1 of them should happen to be indicated, on the evidence that YOUR life is, and to do so competently.

    The context of understanding where I’m coming-from is just so you understand the sort of mind who is trying to give you leverage for your life.

    I’ve experienced years of psychiatric treatments, & ditched them all.

    Lithium carbonate ( manic-depression ), Norpramin ( depression ), multiple major-tranquilizers for their “schizophrenia” category ( I trust Walsh’s replicable-experiments more than I trust the bullshit that psychiatry put on me…

    It’s been known since the 1920’s that child-onset schizophrenics lose 1/10th of our brains when it hits us.

    NONE of psychiatry admits that a child’s losing 1/10th of their brain-volume FACTUALLY IS brain-injury.

    No, psychiatry insists that it is “incurable illness of their minds”, and the kids need stomping with major-tranquilizers, in order to make them stable in their condition.

    Gaslighting.

    Thompson is the name of a researcher who mapped which part of such children’s brains lost 20% of tissue-volume, which lost 15%, which regions lost 10%, which lost 5%.

    To gaslight children whose brains have been literally-decimated, is part of why such children have a 10% suicide-rate.

    Evil.

    Honestly admit that epigenetically-enforced brain-injury IS brain-injury, & help the kids deal-with their damn hellish brain-decimation!!

    That is far too much to ask, of psychiatry, obviously…

    https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2877521/

    Figure 1 shows the tissue-destruction regions.

    PubMed had at-least 1 paper which mentioned that brain-volume-loss had been known since the 1920’s.

    ( I didn’t bother looking for any more, seeing 1 )

    Maybe you understand why having my life destroyed by medical-gaslighting might possibly have made me offended/angry at it…

    Authority-based medicine which identifies as “evidence based” medicine, isn’t Evidence Based Medicine.

    Those composite brain-scans, shown by Thompson, THAT is evidence based medicine.

    Anyways.

    I wish you well, & I hope you find your right-answer.

    Oh, & do try absolutely blacking-out your sleeping-room,

    not viewing any blue-white light in the 2h prev to bed,

    using earplugs if necessary ( soft ones, and those foam ones can often be washed with one’s laundry, if one isn’t using any fabric-softener perfumed-wax gunk )

    I’ve no idea if melatonin supplementation helps: never tried it.

    Salut, Namaste, & Kaizen, eh?
