If I am reading newspaper I will find that I have dozed off My tablet is 5mg and I weigh 11 pounds. When I don't take I don't sleep. I use all thr other suggestions. L avendar spray, sleep CDs, a mask fans, reading first. Always awake at 3am.By trial and error I have discovered that I can watch the Golden Girls and close my eyes. Of course they are repeats and every body looks the same. I was taking Trazodone until I realized my dry mouth, aching back hard time waking up were a result. I tried Melatonin and Alteril 9with L-Tryptophanand Melatonin . The last two caused hot flashes that got worse each night. I am talking about the last 8 months.I gave everything a fair trial time.

This worked for me sometimes - it only works on an empty stomach, and with my work schedule I usually need to eat when I come home/before bed, so that was one reason it didn't help. Also I woke up a lot during the night on it. Helped with falling asleep but not staying asleep.
