ANTIANXIETY, SLEEP AID - INSOMNIA

Anti-anxiety and sleep aid options can be beneficial for managing stress and ensuring restful sleep, especially when certain performance enhancers may increase anxiety or disrupt sleep. Anti-anxiety medications such as Diazepam (Valium) and Lorazepam (Ativan) are sometimes prescribed short-term for stress relief, while natural options like Ashwagandha and L-Theanine promote relaxation without sedation.

For sleep and insomnia, Melatonin helps regulate sleep cycles naturally, while ZMA (a combination of Zinc, Magnesium, and Vitamin B6) supports muscle recovery and restful sleep. Gabapentin may be prescribed for more severe cases of insomnia. Practicing good sleep hygiene, reducing screen time before bed, and keeping a regular sleep schedule are also essential steps for improved sleep quality and anxiety management.
