When to take Cyproheptadine for sleep?

[onliest]

@DkJoe2 I concur with this. Have some ice cream. Only take 0.5mg 2-3 times a week. Preferably on days you are working out

@mavuue I'd wait until you feel your dopamine has recovered completely. Cypro seems reduce dopamine and serotonin

[serotoninskeptic]

@mavuue Right before bed. It hits pretty fast

@risingfire I always thought cypro was actually agonistic of dopamine? At least, when you are eating enough good food alongside it.

[risingfire]

@Milk-Destroyer all the literature I've read and personal experience has proved quite the opposite. I wonder if taking lisuride alongside cypro may negate those side effects

[Milk Destroyer]

@risingfire If only lisuride was cheaply and easily available, as cypro is in a lot of countries.

[DkJoe2]

@Milk-Destroyer I may be wrong but I loosely remember it being something to do with Serotonin and Dopamine being conversely related but also staying within a certain range of each other?
So at higher doses Cypro drops Serotonin off a cliff which surges Dopamine to a point but if Serotonin falls too far Dopamine also reduces with it, dopamine should always remain higher though (providing there is adequate nutrition/rest of course otherwise it's adrenaline time).

Fyi good chance I have remembered/understood this wrong though.

@Milk-Destroyer l-dopa or tyrosine with sunlight maybe?

[risingfire]

@DkJoe2 +1

[Milk Destroyer]

@DkJoe2 I wonder if exogenous l-dopa would convert instead to adrenaline though? And is tyrosine use safe, it being a standalone amino-acid? I suppose it'd be a matter of individual experimentation
