> I'm theorizing the daytime fatigue is caused by the chronic lack of sleep. Seems like one's body gets out of sync on this med..Without sleep at night eventually the body get's fatigued during the day. Sounds similar to an amphetemine crash.I'm wondering if this causes parnate poop out. Without the restorative properties of sleep your brain just can't make the amines the med needs to do it's work.
I think you are right on. So the question should not be how do i prevent/cope with the afternoon fatigue, it should rather be, what do i need to do to get 6-8 hrs. of sleep each night?
Literally, what should one do? I'd say be on an effective sleep aid, follow good sleep hygiene recommendations, limit the amount of caffiene you take in, get plenty of exercise, eat well, try to go to bed at the same time every night, etc.Please, everyone add any comments/suggestions concerning Parnate and coping with insomnia and other side effects.
