I've been awake for 36 hours now but I can't fall asleep. My body is exhausted but there's something in my head that's preventing me from getting tired. Help pls
What are you thinking about?
Try taking melatonin?

Nothing. I'm not even stressed, don't have anything to do so I'm just browsing 4chan to waste time. I don't even have enough concentration to play vidya.

I always wake up after an hour and then have the same problem again with melatonin.

Bullshit. Your mind always thinks of something. Colours, smells. Memories. Strains of monolog. The mind is a vast thing to come to any conclusions with no information on your individual one. If you want help, tell us whats on your brain.

My mind has been pretty much a blank the past few hours. I vaguely process what I'm seeing here, I can't remember thinking of anything else.

I've had problems with sleep most of my life, I've been prescribed meds, used alcohol, and weed as sleep aids and also tried melatonin multiple times.
In the past when I've tried melatonin I've had the standard 3mg tablets that is common to find in stores. It would work for a few days and then stop working well. Sometimes it just didn't work well at all from the start. I rarely used it because the effectiveness was so hit and miss even when taking 10mg. I'd often wake up in the middle of the night and not sleep very well even if it did get me to sleep.
Recently I skeptically tried a low dose. I bought one of those liquid melatonin from VitaminShoppe (pic related) and took one dropper (contains 0.25mg Melatonin). I've been taking it for 2 weeks and each night its been very effective. I have not built up a tolerance to it and I am getting to sleep just as well 2 weeks in as I did the first day. My girlfriend also finds the low dose much more effective for her than 3mg tablets.
If you have tried melatonin in the past without great results I highly recommended you try a very low dose.
MIT proved greater efficacy at lower dose in this study http://web.mit.edu/newsoffice/2005/melatonin.html

I don't want to become dependant and thus making it even worse.
>>16954767
What, you're worried about becoming dependent on a $1 per month medicine?
You're right tho. First is popping melatonin, then it's straight to shooting dope
>>16954767
Like I said, I've been on nearly everything and 0.25mg natural melatonin is nothing compared to being addicted to Zolpidem and meeting up with Ambien Walrus every night
>>16954771
No, not being able to sleep without melatonin. I really don't want my sleeping problems to become worse without it/in the long run.
