I think I might try cutting my melatonin dose. I take 3mg to get to sleep, but only because it's the middling dose available at the store. Lots of people here seem to take less.

Experiments show that 10 micrograms are sufficient to induce sleep, although maybe only if you time it right. But it's hard to find in doses smaller than 300 micrograms.

I cut the 300mcg into fourths for 75mcg.
