I was fed up with my insomnia, so I started taking melatonin (5mg pills about an hour before going to bed). It doesn't seem to work for me.

Melatonin has a U shaped dose-response curve. I have found that lower doses will always work better until below 1mg with no tolerance.

My pills can easily be broken into two, so I'll try taking 2.5 mg instead.

Still way too high.

I never take more than 2mg. I bought 1mg pills. I'm no longer a regular user but the effects are noticeable (mainly waking w/ early light; the feeling of being tired could easily be placebo)
