as i often have trouble falling asleep, people have been recommending me to take a melatonin pill half an hour before going to bed. what are you’re experiences with it and is there anything i should be worried about?

You don't need that shite man. Cut your screen time down and no unnatural light an hour before bed.

Will make your Dick small and reduce your T lvls.
Drink valerian root if you're that bad.

Helps at first but ultimately messes your sleep up even more. You will get trippy dreams tho so thats fun
source? 🤔
never heard of valerian root before 🤔
Common sense man, how you gonna sleep with bright lights blasting you in the face?
Groggy during the first hour of the day? 🤔

Don't play with your hormones. It's the system of connected vessels. You will fuck up something else and then might never get back to proper hormone levels.
Fair enough buddy 💜

I don’t get a lot of these comments. But I’ve been on melatonin for years and it radically changed my life. I went years without sleeping. That being said: * it will only work if you are deficient in melatonin. * taking more does not have an effect. Your body only uses what uses. * you may notice grogginess in the morning. This faded for me over time.
Melatonin is literally a chemical produced by your body.
what do you mean by “messes up your sleep even more”? 🤔 just the natural melatonin levels, circadian rhythm etc?
"Research is lacking" despite its widespread use as a sleeping aid. Its because there's no money to be made from it, and thus no studies funded by pharma.
The small dick part was to encourage DYOR
Same with St. John's Wort and depression.
And a million other herbal treatments .
yeah, that’s a wonderful one i used to love going for a run, taking a warm shower and going straight to bed when my knee is back being a-okay, i’ll get back to it 💜
why would magnesium help? 🤔

there's several types, try the right type of magnesium: magnesium glycinate, 30m before sleep (works on gba receptors which help w muscle relaxation and nervous system regulation)
