It is a WONDER drug for my daughter when she is having sleep problems. We do still need a traditional sleep aid from time to time, but a lot of the time, melatonin does the trick. If you have tried it in the past and it didn't work for you, talk to your doc/pharmacist about a higher dose. Hope this helps! Have you tried melatonin?

I sometimes put a time limit on getting to sleep on my own - so that I can take Ambien to allow for 8 hours of sleep. I understand the sometimes nightly battle.
