    Melatonin


    Will it cause me to be tired the next day if I dose 6mg before bed?

    It's crazy but...

    I have 60 3mg caps. I am using it with a stack. This stack will last 30 days. I want the melatonin to last the same amount of time. If I dose 6mg (2 caps) every night, the bottle will last 30 days.

    Okay, tell me I'm crazy now.

    i take 3mg a night and it knocks me out fast. i feel like im drugged up. im scared to think about taking 6 mg. if you have not tried it already, use 3mg and see how that goes. then move up from there. =)

    If u give urself 6-9 hours of sleep 6mgs will be fine...i have personally taken a max dose of 30mgs b4 bed and was still able to wake up within 7 hours...i personally feel much less groggy the next morning when taking melatonin/gaba compared to any other prescription drugs...

    Do you guys cycle melatonin to avoid tolerance or dependance?

    I just take it on workout days, hoping I wont build up a tolerance, and workout days are when I have alot of stims from my PreWO, so it helps knock me out.

    Ok wtf happened? last night was the first time I ever tried melatonin 1.5mg (I crushed the mg pill in half) and this stuff kept me awake all night long. I couldn't sleep for more than an hour.

    3mg is enough to make me sleep like a baby. I do feel a bit groggy if I don't get at least 6 hours of sleep so I'd just pop a stim in the morning to make me feel like a lion.

    ok for one, .25mg-1mg is far more effective than 6mg. If you use 6mg youre not researching or learning.
    Also, bottles are not the inal say in dose. This is perfect example. Some are over some are under...look at the real studies not the label.

    I would strongly suggest STARTING at .25-.5mg~ yea yea you got the tabs, so do i. its called a knife. make a half cut, then another half cut, there ~.75mg doses. I LITERALLY, nibble some off the tab these days for a few reasons. Itll last waaayyy longer.
    You wont chance dependance as fast OR messed up seratonin levels which could result in anger, sleepy feel, irretability, etc etc. These are neuro transmitters youre messin with. I suggest you do research.

    goodluck.

    Also, why are you worried about running it as a "stack"?

    The best sleep combo i have used to date is my current. 3-4g GABA, .5mg~ melatonin, 500mg~ L-Dopa, 1.4g Piracetam.

    I used to LOVE Neurobalance with GABA and Melatonin, that was some ridiculous sleep/dreams.

    if you expose you eyes to light ASAP it will help diminish the effects. Just like once you dose youre supposed to make sure lights are off. Its not a hardcore sleep agent, it releases hormones/chemicals in your brain/body to help you along.

    I have capsules, I can't split them in half. I'm taking 3mg a night. Think that's enough to mess up my neuros?

    I take 10mg nightly. It's fine.

    It's one of the best antioxidants too
