    They still might depending on what you tried.

    For example some antidepressants tend to give a bit of a jolt (e.g. fluoxetine) and are usually taken in the morning.

    Most of the time you get some SSRIs as a first antidepressant which usually wake people up. Mianserine is a tetracyclic AD with a whole different set of effects.


  • To give you slightly more information:

    I checked and both names are generic.

    Mianserine is an antidepressant but can be used at lower dosages as a sleeping aid. I noticed that it helps me go to bed.

    Quetiapine is an antipsychotic. It is also used as a sleeping aid at lower dosages but I have seen counterindications on account of the heavier side effects. I noticed that it didn’t make me that sleepy but it keeps me from waking up every few hours and helps me go back to sleep when I do wake up. A few friends of mine find the hypnotic effects too intense and need to take it at the end of the afternoon in order to hear their alarms in the morning.




  • Last year I discovered what 7/8h of sleep felt like thanks to horse adapted amounts of sleeping medication (120mg of Miamserine, 500mg of quetiapine, some THC).

    Before that I was used to 5/6h on the regular and 1/3h when it got worse.

    I don’t really understand how I have functionned all these years with that much sleep deprivation.







  • I don’t even like fish that much, especially when cooked. The texture gets kinda gross and the taste is at best ok.

    It’s just the fish sauce. Even the mere smell is kinda fascinating. Like when you put smth smelly on your fingers and can’t help but sniffing them.

    I’ve come to accept it as either a limit to my commitment or an inconsistency in my stance.

    Likewise, once or twice a year I’ll treat myself with some quality offals which I miss way more than steack. Last time was some heart and liver soup kinda like phò.

    I think the next thing to fix on my diet is cut off cow cheese since it implies making and subsequently killing veals every year.

    And someday I’ll build a halfway decent pizza oven in my backyard n_n

    Also calzones are harder to make but very underrated.
