You know, what has made a difference is trazodone.
It took four and a half years before somebody suggested trazodone.
And, you know, that's like one of the first things that non-neurologists reach for when it comes to, quote unquote, insomnia.
And my PCP was totally like floored.
She's like, you mean nobody's ever tried you on trazodone?
And I did try it.
And it was...
immediate night and day effect on my sleep reports with my ring and on how I was feeling.
And I think it's the one thing that has made me feel better because my fragmented sleep is better.
And I went from having like 3% deep sleep with every night to 15 to 20%.
And I went from having to be in bed for about 13 hours a night in order to get any kind of amount of feeling like I could actually get out of bed and face the day to
even though I don't have refreshing sleep ever, but 13 hours in bed in order to get, you know, probably 11 to 12 hours of sleep according to the ring.
And that was all fragmented with basically no deep sleep to speak of.
And now since doing the trazodone, I can be in bed for eight or nine hours and get seven or eight hours of sleep, according to the ring, and 20% deep sleep, and I'm feeling better.
So I found out that trazodone is a 5-HT2A antagonist.
And that is where the efficacy as a sleep agent supposedly comes from.
So I started, you know, looking into, well, what other things do 5-HT2A?
Because I feel like I have room to get better.
Like I could dial my sleep in better.
And maybe that will help me improve.
