I was given Doxepin as well but I tried it a few times, along with the Klonopin, and I can't tell any difference.

Do you think the melatonin does help you sleep, but knocks your system off kilter? I was told to try it but haven't yet.
Yes, the melatonin helps.. although it doesn't make me tired initially, like I'll take it and still feel the same and will think that it's not going to work but I'll lay down and just happen to fall asleep. Although it seems to have lost a bit of it's effectiveness.. sometimes it doesn't work that well.. I've been taking it for about 3 months now. I guess your not supposed to take it all the time but that's what I've been doing till recently. Also it's best to try to sleep within 30 or minutes. But yeah, you should definitely try it, it helps!
