It should be within reasonable range, like e.g. you won't wake up as a Yedi or Superman tomorrow and world hunger won't be solved just in a few days, etc

the only thing I learned in therapy that helped me was getting the correct dosage of melatonin. I use to think you would take more to sleep longer and deeper - turns out no. Need to take less.

I take 1mg now instead of 10 and it works amazing.

Without a prescription we only get 1mg pills anyway around here anyway. Is whats recommended.

whoa, you have to get melatonin prescribed? it's like widely available where I am.

Its only recently-ish (2020) become prescription-less here in Norway, and only in small amounts. We are a very conservative country when it comes to healtcare.

that's interesting, I had no idea. It's kinda crazy you can get such a high dosage of it here over the counter or online cause after I talked to someone who's a doctor- it doesn't even seem like you need that much of it ever really.
