"i&#039;m an 18 year old with insomnia. i have difficulty falling asleep on my own &amp; when i finally do, it&#039;s a chore to wake up! i started taking melatonin 3mg and i&#039;ve slept amazing! it works within the first hour and i can actually wake up from my alarm! i took one at 8 last night, fell asleep around 8:45 and woke up at 5 this morning with no problem. first time i&#039;ve woken up before the afternoon and felt awake enough to get my nephew ready for school!"
