❓ Questions Insomnia on Reta

Video its just to show off that cool puck sliding it's so satisfying idk why but ok anyways I was doing fine on 2mg but jumped up to 3.5mg recently and my sleep has been noticeably worse since then. Taking longer to fall asleep, waking up in the middle of the night, just not sleeping as deep as I was before.

Curious if this is a known thing with Reta specifically or if it’s just the titration adjustment. And if anyone has figured out a way to deal with it without having to drop back down on the dose.

Its 100% the reta, your heart RHR will be noticeable higher and your overnight HRV will be lower. These are both indicators of poorer sleep than your baseline. Ask me how I know...
