[QUOTE=Gemme;427079]I've been taking the supplements for a few days now and I do have to admit that I appear to be getting to sleep faster. I still wake up in the middle of the night and when Ebon changes pitch/volume/etc but it's more like 2-3 times now versus 6 or more before.

So, thankfully, it does seem to be making a difference. Maybe when my supply runs out, I'll look into melatonin supplements.

Hi Gemme. I am an uncured insomniac. We sort of talked about this in another thread (sleep study) I also suffer from
migraines. They always look at sleep when you have migraines. I had listed on my patient info sheet for the current Neurologist I am seeing....melatonin supplements.
The neurologist said to me* Sleep makes melatonin, melatonin does not make sleep, nor does it put you into a better head space or increase your sex drive. Throw it away.*

Not trusting her 3 walls that were covered with degrees and
medical certifications, I came home and looked that piece of information up on the internet....OMG

She was telling me the truth. I bet I read that in the check out line of a grocery store while being sleep deprived (melatonin will let you sleep, buy some!!)
