According to Scott Alexander's review (https://slatestarcodex.com/2018/07/10/melatonin-much-more-than-you-wanted-to-know/ https://slatestarcodex.com/2018/07/10/melatonin-much-more-th...), 0.3mg is the correct dosage for melatonin and higher doses might do more harm than good. I think you have accidentally replicated some of the melatonin research on yourself.
I personally wouldn't want to use melatonin all the time. Relying on a drug to keep my circadian rhythm going seems fragile and scary.
- mettamage 5y agoYep, I read that one after I found my dose and had the same thought. I don't want to use melatonin either but when I got off of it, I don't fall asleep. My situation is simple: either don't get sleep, or use melatonin. It's fragile but currently my only seeming option that I have, so I have to take it.
