Advice & Tips
Only rarely can I fall asleep on my own without melatonin; I have to be absolutely exhausted. It's a lifesaver for dealing with Delayed Sleep Phase Disorder (diagnosed last summer) while keeping a 8-5 office job.

Advice & Tips
I can't take this medication with the Neurontin, Savella, Trazadone and Paxil. It made me have very bad "tics" and twitching of my whole body. Once I stopped this medication, it cleared up and I no longer had the twitching or tics.
