Thanks for your reply willyee. I'd like to figure out a vitamen regimem that alliviates any rebound effect.
> willyee thanks for the info, it's helpful. My sleep study showed that I was getting 0 short-wave deep sleep. That's why my sleep doctor is considering it. I can't remember the last time I woke in the morning feeling refreshed. And I always wake in the middle of the night and barely get back to sleep, if at all.
