My Doc went off about Melatonin to me one day, about how it really doesn't work and is more of a placebo except for jet-lag? or something.. I don't remember. I've taken it and well, tbh, it never worked for me so I kind of side with him on that lol

Anyways - I use to take Ambien. It worked 'well' the first few times but then I started having adverse reactions. Rapid heartbeat, freaky ass dreams / hallucinations, etc. So I stopped.
