Stopped taking my magnesium for 3 weeks by accident, sleep quality tanked visibly
I ran out of my 200mg glycinate during a trip to Austin and forgot to reorder, so I went cold turkey for 21 days. My sleep tracker showed 40% more wake-ups per night and I felt groggy every morning, then two nights back on it smoothed everything out again. Anyone else ever notice a lag like that when dropping a supplement cold?

Curious how long you had been on it before the trip, because I wonder if the 3 weeks off hit harder since your body had built up some level and then lost it. Also did you go right back to 200mg or ease in with a lower dose? The rebound after just two nights is pretty fast, which makes me wonder if part of what you were feeling was just the stress of travel and Austin in general. Did the wake-ups start right away on day one off it, or did it take a week or so to get bad?
