any miscers take melatonin to help you sleep?

does it work and what dose you taking? Been having issues sleeping recently and it's starting to affect my job...can't seem to fall asleep until 2-3 most nights and then have to wake up at 6. picked up some 5mg Melatonin today, finna melatoninmaxx and zzzquilmaxx for sleep gains hopefully.

Yea sometimes I take up to 100mg because I work night shift. It’s impossible to OD on.

Then I graduated to ***** and am now dependent on it ;(

Melatonin does work but you gotta cycle on and off of it every 2 weeks or so.

damn 100mg? i was thinking just 5-10 mg to start.
Yeah main reason i've stayed off benzos is the dependency.
I never had issues sleeping, i was able to cope with whatever stress and still get 6 hours at least usually, until recently i've just had the hardest time falling and staying asleep.

get 1mg tabs, a smaller dose .25-.50 would be ideal but it might be harder to find/more expensive

the guy saying 100mg is retarded, sure it won't kill you but that's an absolutely massive dose
lmao I was like lmao

Damn so heavy users in here. I only do 5-10mg on days I take caffeine. These days, I try to cut out caffeine completely because of the way it effects my sleep.

It should be used sparingly; no more than a few days at a time

3-6mg is more than enough to match diphenhydramine effect under normal tolerance



And yes it will likely give you very vivid nightmares, the higher the dose the worse it gets

I feel like it doesn't help you fall asleep, but if/once you fall asleep you get more restful sleep. Assuming you get a full 8 hours. But if you phuk around take melatonin and only sleep for 5 hours it does more harm than good.

If your problem is falling asleep I would look into zzzquil or cannabis products.

I’ve been taking 10mg a night for 10 years non stop. Still helps me fall asleep and no side effects that I can tell.
