tryed it last night, at 10:40pm, was a little scared and hessitant to drink it. played some charlie brown music to set a good mood, i took about 1.5 mg on the first dose, and the second dose at about 3 was 1.5 aswell. at first i felt like i was slowing getting a bit loopy. my body started to get numb and slower movements, i started to hear things clearer, i felt my heart rate go down, slower breathing. i had small leg spasm, but nothing painfull, just wierd feeling, but i just went with the flow. i eventually had little visuals with my eyes closed, i was thinking about wierd stuff, like stuff melting, then i was thinking about beautiful girls and made me really horny. all this continues, eventually fell asleep, feels like it took awhile. i woke up at 12:53 those, that like 2 hours asleep!! (small dose i guess) but i took the second dose at 3. went to sleep quick, but i actually had to pee a a little bit after taking it, i went to go pee. i was still on the medeicine, and i walked fine just felt groggy. I am 6'3 178lbs so maybe it doesnt affect me that much at a small dose. But woke up this morning with a total of 3 maybe 4 wakeups lastnight (napped two times that day that day), and felt a little tired, maybe quicker then normal. I woke up at 8 and at about 10:50 felt like i needed a little nap cause i was doing anything, i took it and feel alot better now, 40 min nap or less.

Gonna continue taking it. from what i hear it takes a little while to get good success, especially at the higher doses. I am training for beach volleyball, and this would be miracle for me to where i wouldn't have to take nuvigil, i wouldn't have to take a mid day nap, and i wouldn't have to sleep in a bit. So I am hoping that if i keep up with this, and eventually move up in doses then i will start getting the full well rested feeling, to where no naps are needed and to where i can play at my full potential/energy level. and eventually cataplexy reduction. I take nuvigil sparingly now, because of the digestion, headache, drymouth, muscle cramp, wieght loss, appetite side effects, if i really need it i work around it. but with XYREM, i hope i dont loss weight on it, because i'm really fit, but on the thinner side already i want to build muscle not loss weight. i do still feel hungry im pretty sure the next day of xyrem. But yeah, any question, comments or advice or anything!!!! let me know, if you have a similar exprience list bellow

I tried it last night for the first time as well. It took me about 30 minutes to fall asleep because I was laughing so much! I would be paralyzed and about to sleep and then think of something funny and the laughter would kind of ripple through me and wake me up. I kept waking my boyfriend up to laugh with me. I felt completely drunk too, like spins in bed drunk, and I had a few muscle spasms as well (not painful, just annoying). I still woke up multiple times throughout the night, but I got a few good chunks of sleep in there. When my alarm woke me up to take my second dose I was pretty pissed that I had to drink more salty water, but fell right back asleep.

This morning I have had a mild headache and felt pretty lethargic, but that's normal for a lazy saturday. I've also felt pretty confused and dazed all day, but well enough to go out to lunch for a bit. I was so nervous last night I almost couldn't bring myself to take the first dose because I'd read so much on here about different people's reactions to the first night and next day. All in all it felt like a normal night before the xyrem. I still took my concerta 36mg this morning, but only took one dose of ritalin 10 this afternoon.

hmmm.. sounds like we had the same exprience lol, but from what i've read, it takes a few weeks to start seeing improvments on the low dose, and then eventually over a few months, you get the drastic life changing improvments, so just keep on keepin on, we'll get there! can't judge anything from the first try, especially, xyrem hah.. but yeah goodluck with ya. I'd say, put on some jazzy music, relax, just have an average time you want to get in bed, and start making it a somewhat routine, and then it will pay off in the long run, you'll get use to it. But goodluck with ya, looks like were both gonna get a little bit goofy minded tonight, haha taking mine in about (10-15 mins) 10:35pm EST. take it easy, would enjoy exchanging some gnarly stories from night #2 of xyrem. Later homie :)
