DSIP: Sleep at 8 days #124

Paid $400 for a telomere test, did 3 rounds of epitalon over a year, then paid $400 again. My percentile went from 41 to 38. The podcast I got the idea from now says telomere tests aren’t reliable.

I was never the cleanest person. I did a cycle of Epitalon and then Pinealon and now I can’t stand a dirty house. It’s causing some conflict with wife and kids because they still leave dishes in the sink after eating etc. anyone else experience this? It’s a nice change and completely unexpected. I want everything to be organized and clean but not OCD.

I owe an update to the people who read my post about DSIP ruining my sleep. My usual medication, Quviviq, had been helping me fall asleep. Then I had trouble getting it from the pharmacy and tried DSIP instead. Three attempts. Horrible nightmares, waking throughout the night, irritable and miserable during the day. I stopped DSIP. Eventually got my prescription sorted. Went back on Quviviq. The broken sleep continued for more than two weeks. At that point I was convinced DSIP had done something lasting, and that’s how I wrote about it. Then one night I didn’t take Quviviq. I stayed asleep properly. Stopped taking it altogether and that improvement continued. I still don’t understand the timing. I can’t tell you whether there was some interaction or whether I’d connected things that weren’t connected. What I can tell you is that the story changed after I’d already posted it with absolute confidence.

The first and last time I took DSIP, I went to the emergency room writhing in pain right in my sternum and they all thought i was looking for drugs. I was there 4 hours before they realized I wouldn’t stop groaning.

Taking Pinealon and Epithalon is giving me insane sex dreams but the best sleep of my life. I wake up and my bed is soaked because I squirted in my sleep.

I was 49, lean, healthy and running half-marathons. Then a commercial telomere test told me my result looked more like a 55-year-old’s. That bothered me enough to spend twelve weeks experimenting with Epitalon and modified versions of it. Physically? Almost nothing. Some vivid dreams. A little more grouchiness. No noticeable improvement in my skin, hair or energy.

I’d been trying DSIP for sleep. During my usual tanning session I closed my eyes, and within what felt like a couple of minutes I was having an actual vivid dream.
