Guest guest Posted June 27, 2004 Report Share Posted June 27, 2004 How are you sleeping... do you go deep enough to dream? Topper () On Sun, 27 Jun 2004 07:52:03 -0700 "JAMY" writes: 2x. I had been doing 5, but felt no difference. Tried it for 3 months. I do need the noon one since I get up at 5. Funny though, I did not take my thyroid meds when I had my blood test since noon the day before and I had the test at 7 a the next day. It showed my free t3 over the top, yet I felt tired.

Guest guest Posted June 27, 2004 Report Share Posted June 27, 2004 Yes, I used to have high night time cortisol, but now I take phospahtidyl serine and my night time is less than 2 from I think 13. Today I took 3 30 mg Armour at 6. I am still racy. I am getting ready to take my noon dose but uit will be 2 hours later than normal. I like the 3 in the AM feeling. >From: topper2@... >Reply-To: The_Thyroid_Support_Group >To: The_Thyroid_Support_Group >Subject: Re: upping dose >Date: Sun, 27 Jun 2004 13:15:56 -0500 > >How are you sleeping... do you go deep enough to dream? > >Topper () > >On Sun, 27 Jun 2004 07:52:03 -0700 " JAMY " >writes: > >2x.

Guest guest Posted June 28, 2004 Report Share Posted June 28, 2004 Dreaming is a clue that you are going into deep sleep... getting close to the edge of that is the weird dreams and nightmares... So it's time for you to find out how to get yourself just a notch deeper into sleep, ... there is something that is still keeping you from that. We need to get into deep, level four, sleep. That is where our body goes into repair and healing mode BIG time. We desperately need the repair time for our bodies to heal and catch up with all the damage that hypo, and hyper, causes our bodies. Dreaming, the good ones, is our brain entertaining itself while everything else it the body is off in repair land. The brain always needs stimulation to keep it sane.. so the dreams are the stimulation while its not able to track the body.... I learned of all of this AFTER the dreams came back and I started to sleep again.. I needed to understand why the dreams came back like they did... See, before they thyroid storm and RAI and going hypo I could go to bed at night with a 'story' and that would be the trigger for my dream... My friends were very used to me asking for a dream when we talked late at night... some of them got very good at giving me really nice ones to crawl into bed with.... then I lost all of that... and sleep... Now that is back... I'm almost ashamed to say what I bring to bed with me to start my dreams...... I now think of the thyroid clinic I want to build.... I have the whole thing constructed and organized and running in my brain...... *blush* Topper () On Mon, 28 Jun 2004 02:56:43 -0500 " " writes: For myself, I dream (that I remember anyway) maybe once or twice a yr.

The dreams are always weird, but they always involve a strange house somewhere, that I've never seen before. What in the world is THAT?!! I just hardly ever dream to my memory banks.

Guest guest Posted June 28, 2004 Report Share Posted June 28, 2004 I know this may not apply to everyone, but I'm thinking that, at this point in time, it just could be outside influences. Something like a 3 yr old grandson running around. We are in a 3 bdrm trailer, but it is not large. I just wish that we had a hallway to the bedroom a mile long! I was so used to living alone, totally alone, except when I wanted someone there. It has been like this for the last 3 yrs, and I really want that to change. It has GOT to change by the end of this yr. I just can't handle it any more. I raised a lot of children, and she is just not moving on yet (finances). Thus, we're just talking about more adrenal stressors here and that thing some of you guys were talking about as stressors like, "I never get to do what I want to do"? This is what I think this is, and it really is going to have to change.
