Melatonin: Much More Than You Wanted to Know
Couple anecdotal points:<p>- Used to have to sleep problems - mainly just my mind racing with all the (stress of) things I had to do. The symptoms were trouble sleeping and&#x2F;or waking in the middle of the night with instant thoughts of projects, task lists.<p>- Melatonin didn&#x27;t help me much. Maybe their effect was too subtle on me - maybe I was using the wrong dose as mentioned in the post.<p>- Magnesium Glycinate pills before sleep were a massive help in falling asleep and staying asleep.  The only way I can describe its effects is helping me &quot;control my brain waves&quot;. Sounds a bit non-technical but the effect is quite subtle . The idea to take these supplements were from previous discussions on HN.<p>- Recently got a newborn baby - first child. These things will do more to knock you sleep cycle out whack than anything else I&#x27;ve experienced. Coincidentally, falling asleep and staying asleep is easier than ever. You just end up getting woken up by a tiny crying human at seemingly random times.
