Yeah, that is definitely not enough...

I know you are still having some depressive symptoms sometimes and not feeling good about some things, but that can still happen if you are hypo or manic

I forgot to congratulate you on your weight loss!!!

I'm sorry that you have had some sleepless nights Bobby. I know how stressful, and lonely it can be. BF

Let me share this tip with you about food and sleeping.

High protein meals before bedtime, can cause insomnia.
Having some complex carbs then instead, helps promote sleep.

This is because carbs help release serotonin which is involved with initiating sleep. (and losing weight).

There is a lot more to this as explained in this article:
Serotonin: What It is and Why It's Important for Weight Loss | Psychology Today

Save the hamburger for breakfast and/or lunch.

Thank you MrsD. I ordered a bottle, and am going to give it a months try. As you can understand, I've heard many claims over the years about these type of health food supplements.

The most resent I've tried is the Omega XL, which doesn't seem to work for me, but I tried it over a period of time.

Thank you. BF

The link says that eating graham crackers or pretzels will help with sleep (25-35 grams of carbohydrates).
I often have a small amount of rice before bed.

Question
May I ask what supplement you bought? If you are taking an SSRI antidepressant, you need to avoid tryptophan and 5HTP.

I don't recall posting to you about supplements, so I am concerned.

What did you order?
I tried taking tryptophan, gaba and taurine to see if it would help with my sleep. It did not. So I stopped taking them.
