Do any of you take melatonin supplements?

So, I just ordered some supplements online so I can fix my sleep schedule. Did my own research on how to take them effectively and when to stop taking them. But I'm curious if anyone else her take them and can share their experience with it?

Also, I guess I just wanna start a conversation through journals once in a while XD

I take them on occassion. my suggestion is to take the lowest dose you can possibly find. if you take too much it'll make you restless. I find 300mcg to be the max I can handle before getting too restless, and even then I usually split them in half.

interesting. I never knew too much was going to cause that kind of side effect (I must have missed it during my quick research).

Thanks for the tip c: I hope it works well with me ^^

I take a higher dose as a larger gal and it doesn't make me restless. Its best to take it about a half hour before you want to sleep, while you get ready and ive had it work fine. I find that I sleep a bit deeper using it and wake up a bit more rested but if your getting less than 8 hours depending on dose you can wake up groggy

Hopefully nothing wakes me up too early to feel groggy. Then again, I might just sleep back a bit and hope I feel rested in the next few hours ^^'

Hoping for the best that my body won't fight back the sleepiness when it starts to hit XD

I find it helps but it does best combined with scedule. So like, I take mine, brush my teeth and get water, go lay down and play some music. That usually signals its bed time (fun fact if you make a scedule like that for long enough, you'll start to get sleepy as you do it since you've trained your brain!)

ive been taking some Spring Valley valerian root and its worked miracles for me sleep, much more than any of the melatonin or the benadryl i used to take, maybe give them a try!
