[QUOTE="munch520, post: 58115, member: 14384"] OK I have sublingual DHEA so I'll try to see if that helps. My serum # didn't look too bad so I hadn't considered it. My sleep is the HUGE issue right now. When I have these episodes, without fail, I wake up a couple hours after going to sleep, usually fall back to sleep, and then wake again at 3-4am and then can't go back to sleep. I've read high AND low cortisol can cause these abrupt/panicked wakings so I don't know if something like phosphatidyl serine before bed will help lower that high level around 9-10pm, or if my coritsol tanks after that (around midnight-2am) and maybe I'm doing more harm than good taking a supp that tries to lower it... I did cave and take some trazedone last night (50mg) which took a few hours to kick in but thankfully I got 7 hours or so which is an improvement. Sucks that the first thing people say to heal adrenals is "get sleep"...haha much easier said than done, they're causing the insomnia! [/QUOTE]
