It should be within reasonable range, like e.g. you won't wake up as a Yedi or Superman tomorrow and world hunger won't be solved just in a few days, etc

A reliable sleep schedule.
I've been having trouble with it for a LONG time. But last week I found that 2mg melatonin before bed makes me both fall asleep easier AND wake up in a better mood/less sleep inertia. I'm hoping it lasts.
Melatonin gives me some trippy ass dreams/night terrors
It HAS given me more dreams lately. Nothing bad. But I only had one nightmare as an adult. And it rarely shows up anyway.
Same. I had to stop because of them.
I also had issues sleeping. 50mg Trazodone. No more issues sleeping. I'm out for a solid 6 hours within 30 minutes of taking.
well I can't get that over the counter.
the only thing I learned in therapy that helped me was getting the correct dosage of melatonin. I use to think you would take more to sleep longer and deeper - turns out no. Need to take less.
I take 1mg now instead of 10 and it works amazing.
Without a prescription we only get 1mg pills anyway around here anyway. Is whats recommended.
whoa, you have to get melatonin prescribed? it's like widely available where I am.
Its only recently-ish (2020) become prescription-less here in Norway, and only in small amounts. We are a very conservative country when it comes to healtcare.
that's interesting, I had no idea. It's kinda crazy you can get such a high dosage of it here over the counter or online cause after I talked to someone who's a doctor- it doesn't even seem like you need that much of it ever really.
Oh interesting about the lack of sleep inertia! I’ve only tried melatonin once or twice but I had such heavy sleep inertia waking up. Glad you found something that works!
