Ok I just bought some melatonin and Red Bull...How much melatonin should I take before sleeping? Thank you for all of your support and input! I don't know what I've done in the past without it...

many of us take anywhere from 6-18mg

I can't believe that I have to bang my
Head against this wall again
But the blows they have just a little more
Space in-between them
Gonna take a breath and try again.

I also use 9 mg. One hour before going to bed.
Some here use more--you may have to experiment a bit. Just be aware that it may take a few days before you notice any change. It's not perfect, but it does help me to get more sleep than I normally do during a cycle by reducing the number of hits I get at night.
All the best,
George

Ah! The foreigners put on such airs
Wearing the tangerine suits
And their harlequin eyes.
The pain they inspire
Draws in harmonica melodies
And the feathers of birds
Which flame up at their touch.
It all comes to light in the sheer
Debonair.

The Melatonin I bought was 5 mg tabs, I took 2 and it worked for me. They even mellowed me out a little. Sweet dreams!

It works best if you take it about 1.5-2 hours before bed time. Also if you can mix some "time-release" melatonin in with the regular, about half and half, you may get better results, as in sleeping through the whole night.

Religion and sex are powerplays. Manipulate the people for the money they pay. Selling skin, selling God, the numbers look the same on their credit cards. Triptans cause rebounds. Learn it, believe it, live it. I use triptans as the absolute LAST RESORT when treating my CH.
