I use melatonin too. It's a great sleep aid. Sometimes I'll use it if I'm really anxious and I can't sleep. It works wonders.

However, if I'm manic or depressed, it really doesn't seem to have an effect. It doesn't knock me out, and it doesn't keep me asleep.

Thanks Seraph,

They put me on that in the hospital, its great if your not all tighted in knots. But for an all natural sleep aid it does work for me at least.

Hi, new here. I have a terrible time sleeping. I get 3-5 hrs a night even tho' I take Neurontin, Gabitril a couple of hours before bedtime and then Benadryl, Ativan an hour before "sleep time". Then, its Lunesta. This combo works better than anything else I have tried. It is the daytime nap that helps me keep up. Otherwise, I'm dragging around doing nothing.

I also injured my left knee in Jan.1999 and have had 15 surgeries since to try to correct it. But, because of infection, they have had to take my fake knee out and leave it out (if necessary).. This has happened twice with Mayo Clinic being the last one's to try and fix it.

AS of today, Feb. 9th, I have a broken ankle now from falling because of my fake knee. HELP!!!
