Since reading this thread a while back, I have increased mine to 30mg a night. I haven't noticed anything different.

What changes have you seen with the 80mg?

Wish you could have been here to see the troll we had a few weeks back trying to defend his idea of what a drop set was. All I could was laugh

I think I am going to slowly start taking more

It’s not trolling

If they followed my example they’d all eat like 400 calories a day and take like 12 pills and wonder why they still don’t have a 6 pack

Just happened to glance at my sleep the last month. I can pinpoint when I ran out of melatonin. I’m averaging an hour less sleep. I’m waking up an hour earlier on average. Have to fix this

How long before bed do I need to do these high doses and how long am I supposed to be out for on it? I usually get about 6-6.5 hrs a night.

i take it about 15-20 min before i want to go to sleep, usually have to lay for about 5-10 min before it hits me. I usually sleep full 7-7.5 hours. Usually wake up once to go pee, no problem going right back to sleep


full disclosure if you have sleep apnea, do not do this. Also if you have history of wetting the bed, even a little or benig last min to get up, do not do this, you will piss the bed lol.

luckily i dont have either of those issues. I will say when i wake up to go pee, im pretty out of it. but right back to sleep i go. no problem so long as i get full 6 hours


also if you feel urge to go to sleep after taking.....go to sleep immediately, do not fight it, or you will regret it when still awake 3 hours later.

I don't get up to pee during my sleep. Never have to.

Say you typically get 7 hrs of sleep and have to do 6 hrs next night. Do you find it harder to wake up to those 6 hrs vs no melatonin?

Trying to figure out if I'm just going to sleep through my alarm.

Yea, there is a window of opportunity where it knocks you out. If you decide to fight it or something gets you up and you really wake up, no amount of melatonin will put you back to sleep.

I've been dealing with a really bad case of sciatica from a herniated disc for the past 3-4 months. My pain is at its worse when lying down so sleeping through the night has been impossible. I don't take pain meds. Would this be worth trying to help sleep through the pain?

i would say yes, 100% worth trying. It is non addicting, doesnt ruin sleep without it, has almost 100% healthy benifits from it so yes worth trying for sure.

I'm trying to stop taking Benadryl and am taking 20 mg of melatonin instead. I've been seeing the hat guy a lot.

Started trying this. Got up to 20 mg and I busted a nut in my sleep. Haven't done that in a long time
