This is probably off topic, however, maybe someone here can help.
Just moved to the midnight shift last week and I am so tired. I fall asleep quickly, around 9am, then wake up three to four hours later, wide awake. It’s really starting to catch up with me.
I currently take 50 mg of 5htp, 3 mg of melatonin and 1 tylenol pm. My room is blacked out as well.
My training is suffering and worse than that, I’m stuggling to get through my shift.
I would prefer to not take a prescription sleep aid. I read about the sleep aid sold here but it seems expensive. If it works then it would probably be worth it.
Thanks for the replies. Wish I could find something tonight with the ingredients of Z-12. This is my fifth day with less than 5 hours sleep. I’m a cop which makes it worse. Thanks again.

Ditch the tylenol PM (if you must then just get diphenhydramine hcl without the acetaminophen) and take some L-Theanine, valerian and magnesium along with your 5-htp and melatonin.
I take Z-12 on occasion and love it. just one does the trick for me… and it’s a REALLY deep, refreshing sleep.
whoops, don’t mean to sound like a Biotest ad here…
