Rapamycin once‑weekly: My experience How it’s hit my sleep and energy

Not gonna lie, I started on rapamycin 4 mg once a week a few months ago after reading about its mTOR inhibition headlines. The first week I felt a mild tingling on my lower jaw and a sour taste that નવ. By the third week my appetite was off a bit but my nights were surprisingly solid – I fell asleep quicker and woke up feeling less groggy than normal.

I’m dwelling on that because I was used to racing the clock after firefighting shifts and still struggling with drowsiness. I’ve noticed a bit of a “moth‑ball” energy in the afternoons, probably the autophagy effect kicking in. No major stomach upset, only a chewy mouth sore that cleared up after a couple of doses.

I’ll keep tracking it next month to see if the sleep quality stays spot on. Anyone else noticing a similar pattern?
