  @maija @RustyCrab literally safer than melatonin in my experience.

  @maija @RustyCrab 2mg of melatonin destroys me worse than a liter of 80 proof liquor. I don't know why, but that shit hits me like a fucking cannonball. I would rather chase liquor with benadryl, the hangover would be easier to deal with.
  
  Xanax on the other hand is gentle and comfortable, much more pleasant and doesn't hang around for hours after you wake up.

  @prettygood @RustyCrab is that so? in what way? melatonin just doesnt work enough on me with my panic attacks and benadryl has too many consequences and sometimes doesnt work

  @prettygood @RustyCrab @maija melatonin makes it imposible to go into rem sleep, aka you basically did not sleep.

  @prettygood @RustyCrab @maija Yep, so if you know what real sleep is like then it is like staying up all night while also being uncomfortable.

  @sapphire @RustyCrab @maija @prettygood It works the same as caffeine in a sense (after you use it at the same amounts it does nothing) either its placebo or you are just going to sleep lol.

  @dcc @RustyCrab @maija @prettygood ok so how long am I getting absolutely destroyed on my basic bodily functions before it magically turns into a sugar pill bro?
  
  Do you a favor since you didn’t bother finding that source I asked for: I’ve been off mine for about 2 weeks and my Apple Watch does a pretty good job of measuring my sleep cycles accurately, I’ll get back to you with hard data in 48 hours or so.

  The point is you can't measure sleep with fitness watches, so it does not really matter. Unless you have some better evidence other than "werks for me" nothing else here lol.

  @dcc @RustyCrab @maija @prettygood I don’t sleep with my watch on since I got the series 10 because the Milanese loop isn’t very comfortable in sleep. I was going to bother my girlfriend for her data because she takes melatonin nightly and would have your magic sugar pill placebo resistance if it existed.

  @dcc @RustyCrab @maija @prettygood I know a billion people who don’t therefore my anecdote is better.
  
  Off topic but: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10654909/
  
  The Apple Watch (series 8 which has less accurate sleep tracking than the Ultra and the series 10 which I’ve used) aren’t terribly accurate but they tend to skew data away from REM and deep sleep rather than toward it so would at least be good enough to disprove your retarded “melatonin doesn’t let you REM” claim

  https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/14715839/
  The results of the study show that melatonin was significantly more effective than placebo: patients on melatonin experienced significant increases in REM sleep percentage (baseline/melatonin, 14.7/17.8 vs. baseline/placebo, 14.3/12.0) and improvements in subjective measures of daytime dysfunction as well as clinical global impression score. Melatonin did not shift circadian phase or suppress temperature but did increase REM sleep continuity and promote decline in rectal temperature during sleep.
  
  Maybe you should start taking it so you can cool your ass down :)

  During melatonin treatment, sleep in the first 8 h of the 16 h sleep opportunities was increased by 2 h. Sleep per 16 h was not significantly different and approached asymptotic values of 8.7 h in both conditions. The percentage of rapid eye movement (REM) sleep was not affected by melatonin, but the percentage of stage 2 sleep and sleep spindle activity increased, and the percentage of stage 3 sleep decreased. During the washout night, the melatonin-induced advance in sleep timing persisted, but was smaller than on the preceding treatment night and was consistent with the advance in the endogenous melatonin rhythm. These data demonstrate robust, direct sleep-facilitating and circadian effects of melatonin without concomitant changes in sleep duration, and support the use of melatonin in the treatment of sleep disorders in which the circadian melatonin rhythm is delayed relative to desired sleep time.
