One week is a trivial amount of time. I've been taking it for years and have had to slowly, steadily increase the dosage.

Do you have any evidence that the cause is not ordinary aging?

Interesting! If you don't mind sharing, how much were you taking initially, and how much are you taking now?

300mcg initially. Currently at 200mcg to trigger sleep onset 6 hours before, 1.2mg timed-release, and a supplementary 300mcg timed-release or 200mcg if I wake up in the middle of the night.
