I was prescribed melatonin for a sleep complaint some years ago and noticed no detectable improvement: I didn't get to sleep more easily, wake up less during the night, or feel more refreshed in the morning. What might explain this?
It could be that you weren't taking enough. Another major factor is your bedtime routine. Exercise, bright lighting, and other stimulating activities (video games, emotionally-engaging movies) can discourage sleep.
