I took a melatonin last night to try and help my sleep. I still got up twice in the middle of the night but luckily I was able to fall back asleep. Let's see how my day goes now.
Let me know how that works for you - I had no luck w/ it.
I will.
Last night I only took 1 - 5mg pill. Tonight I may try 1 1/2 and see how I feel.
Same thing happened to me when I tried it. I think it made me incredibly moody the next day.
Yes I felt like a raging b!tch.
I never had these issues with melatonin. I felt like it took the edge off just enough to relax me and allow me to get to sleep. I seem to remember having 3mg tablets? I haven't taken it in years.

Um... I'll pull a partiallysunny and rub stuff in. I went to bed at 8 pm last night because my champagne shenanigans wore me out. I literally just woke up. It is 11:30 am. I can conquer the world right now.
I'm havine dinner with friends tonight at the most delicious Mexican restaurant in the world.
I was doing a bit of reading on it last night to see what is recommended and all of these sites were saying to cut the 5 mg in half and that just seemed like such a small dose to me. I tend to have a higher tolerance to medication so I have no issues with trying a higher dose.

I typically take 4 of the 5mg melatonin. (Also, I take it with 15mg ambian, 50mg of trazadone, and a soma.) So... Don't use me a reference for sleeping meds.

And here I've just been using a Benadryl+Melatonin mix to lull myself to sleep.
Really, though, my issue isn't sleeping - it's waking up and getting my ass out of bed.

I take enough sedatives to knock out a small horse.
