Hello dawn1228,

I was on melatonin until recently. I found that it -may- have helped me go to sleep quicker, but I also found that it definitely made me depressed. My mood lifted very considerably when I discontinued it.

I had fair luck with extended release melatonin for a short while. My issue is staying asleep, and it did push me from 2-3 hours to about 5. Was like heaven as long as it lasted. No side effects for me, but already had depression at the time.

Funnily enough, I just wrote a new blog post about melatonin today:

I've tried both the slow release melatonin tablets and also the drops, but didn't really find that it helped very much. Apparently you have to be very careful to only use a small amount, because if you take too much it can actually have the opposite effect.
