It’s a very common sign of addiction to try every supplement under the sun instead of just addressing the cessation of substance abuse because that’s a much more challenging hill to climb.

You don't think they started out tired all the time with no supplements and then slowly added them to try it out?

Makes me wonder if it was a typo, but even 50+ mg is quite a bit.

Only at night and I have a high tolerance

Thanks for this. I don't feel like it doesn't do much for me anyway compared to the other shit I take so I will probably eliminate it from my suppliment routine.

I don't even believe they took 0.5g of THC, that's an insane amount. Unless they mean over a long period of time. The standard dose you can buy is 10mg.

Did you take their advice? I'm regrettably a person who needs more like 9 to 10 hours of sleep, which is great because I love sleeping, but terrible because I love doing stuff.

Ugh. Sometimes I think drs just say "it's all in your head" as an easy way to handwave people out the door. They get paid regardless if they solve your problem or not. I'm sorry that happened to you. If you aren't sleeping well that's an issue. Any sleep specialist worth their salt knows this.

It took me about 10 years to get my diagnosis so I feel this. If you have the means maybe seek out a different sleep specialist and do a second test under that one. It's frustrating that to need to do that, but unfortunately that's what it comes to when you run into asshole doctors who don't care, don't bother listen, or just assume your a moron and your suffering is your own doing.

Best luck to you! I hope you get it figured out and find some relief soon

Try hiking a couple of days, better a week. I'm serious: Actually being outside for the whole day re-calibrates the circadian rhythm, and actually being active before going to bed makes sleeping way easier. Just don't make the mistake of setting yourself kilometre goals.

That's why I added if you have the means, I absolutely understand if you don't. I just had a tooth extracted that was overdue by a few years. Just didn't have the money to get it filled before it cracked in half and I was in excruciating pain for months. I get it.

Maybe try a community health center if you have one near you? They usually do a sliding scale and can make referrals to doctors who work with uninsured or under-insured people. That's how I got my tooth taken care of without being thousands in debt after. Just google "community health centers near 'name of town & state." That is if you feel like pursuing it. Totally get it if you don't, but the above info can help with other health related issues too.

Either way, I hope even a little of that info is helpful to you. I fucking hate healthcare that's useless AND expensive. Wishing you the best.
