I've used it before but had to stop because it has a strong cortisol

lowering effect on me and made my adrenal fatigue worse. It helped

with sleeping though.

There's a collection of posts on melatonin by Cutler and others here:

Hi

I have had bad insomnia (waking uup at 1;30-2:30 for a few hrs) for

almost 5 years. I think this was the beginning of my bad health

cycle. I had tried every medication, lunesta, ambien, klonoprin and a

few others..not much help (thiswas before amalagam removal)

I then tried melatonin per AI and eureka it helped..not 100% I would

still wake up but it would be a dozzy sort of wakeup and I would go

back to sleep. I was trying 10-15 mgs a night (1 hr before bed). I

tried to vary this with time release melatonin per AI and

) but this does not seem to work any better..All of this was

BC (before chelation)

During chelation (last 2.5 months)I noticed it not helping as much.

However last two nights I have gone back to klonoprin (clozepan)

per 's recommendation's and I have slept though until

4:30 (6.5 hrs) and today i sort of dozed back to sleep until 8:00 am

so maybe the drugs work better after the mercury has been removed

from your mouth and maybe even better once I start on ala to remove

it from my head

Good luck

sorry just to clarify, I have stayed on the melatonin for the last 5

months (first thing i tried when i became aware of AI)..

I am right now, 9-12 mgs of melatonin and I am again trying 4 mgs of

time released melatonin and the klonoprin (.5mgs of clonozepam)

I've also had problems in this area. I've taken the majority of my

calcium/magnesium at night to help with it. Like you, I wake up at midnight -

two a.m. pretty much every night. Although, I have noticed a change for the

better in that I've at least slept through the night on more than a few

occasions. In other words, I am s-l-o-w-l-y progressing towards a more

healthier sleep cycle.

My sleep problems started around the time of amalgam placement ( among other

stressors), and I'm hoping the more of this poison I get out of my brain, the

more I'll have more restful sleep. I don't know, but I'm willing to bet that

this will be your case, too. Unless, of course, you had sleep problems prior to

amalgam placement.

Here some extra tips for insomnia and sleep problems. I find a combination

works well.

http://www.livingnetwork.co.za/healingnetwork/insomnia.html

The most effective combination for me is an Epsom salts bath, 6 capsules of

ornithine, and some tryptophan if I wake at night. Also, protein before bed

does the trick.

Thanks,

Our experience with melatonin:

I have one kid who can't sleep without it. Has taken it every night

for two years now. She has done 20 rounds, and has serious adrenal

problems. Probably worse than mine.

The other had to use it occasionally on rounds in the beginning of

chelation because the dmsa was keeping him up.

I had to use it in the beginning of chelation for the same reason. I

did find that when I treated my adrenal problem, I was able for the

first time in years to fall asleep in under 20 minutes and stay asleep

till morning. I always has bad insomnia and woke at night..had a hard

time getting to sleep. That was without the melatonin. So for me

dealing with adrenals had a huge factor in my sleep problems.

This is post removal. Pre-removal I was one of those people who stayed

up all the wee hours of the night. Everyone else in the house would be

asleep...not me. I would spend hours laying in bed...trying to fall

asleep. Now I go to bed and am out in less than 20 minutes.

As chelation goes on, the sleep issues improve.

The melatonin helps most people. Addressing endocrine problems too.

, et al.

Here are my thoughts on insomnia and the things that

have worked for me:

1. Sugar: I tend to have high blood sugar. When my sugar

is high I cant fall asleep or stay asleep. After I switched

to a paleo diet, my sleeping patterns improved a *BUCH*.

2. Junk Food: Same as above. I was eating allot of processed

food and after I realized some of the stuff I ate had MSG and

other gunk, I was able to sleep better by cutting it out of my diet.

3. Oxygenation: The quality of my sleep also improved dramatically

when I started to do breathing exercises for 45min, 1 hour before

bedtime. It help with my sleep apnea some. One day I felt so ill

I had to borrow an oxygen tank from my elderly neighbor (he remarked

how I looked way worst than him.) I used the oxygen tank during the

night and slept like a baby.

4. Indoor air quality: Because I can't do much I tend to stay

home for long periods of time. One day it dawned on me that

I hadn't opened the windows in my house for a long time.

I had a doohickey I bought at a health food store to measure indoor

air quality and the test showed it was poor. I started to open

the windows in my house every day and my sleep improved.

5. Weight loss: In the 3-4 years I've had my amalgams out, I've

lost about 30 to 40 pounds and my sleep has improved. When

I gain weigh I don't sleep so well.

6. Super Juice: I kid you not, this has improved my sleep

and quality of life *DRAMATICALLY*. I got a juicer from

the Salvation Army and... WOW!. I make the following juice:

3 red beets, 15 sticks of carrots, 2 oz of wheatgrass juice,

3 green apples, 1oz of Flaxseed oil. I drink 3 glasses a day:

Morning, noon, and before I go to bed. After about 3 days I

start to feel really good and I sleep very well. If you have

high blood sugar, modify the apples and carrots content until

you find a good compromise. Having a juicer had changed my life.

I can tell the difference between the days I juice and the days

I don't. There are books that highlight the nutrient content

on different fruits and vegetables. I usually juice the high

nutrient density kind and it pays off.

7. Adrenal Cortex Extract: After reading here about the positive

results with ACE from list members, I decided to save and

buy me a bottle. It has helped a bunch. Some people report

problems with sleep while taking it, but for me it had the

opposite effect: I helped with the quality of sleep.

8. Pollution: I work downtown in a major metropolitan city, and

live in the country. Because of illness I'm only able to work 2,

sometimes 3, days a week. I used to go out for lunch to a near by

health food store. The walk lasted about 15 min. each way. Oh, boy!

by the time I got there I felt *ILL*. All the mercury exposure

symptoms would come back. By the time I returned from lunch to

my workplace I would feel very crappy. During the 2-3 days I worked

my sleep was *CRAP*, and spent the rest of the week healing from it.

It took me a while to realize that the 30 min. walk in heavy

downtown pollution was making me sick again. I stop going out

for lunch and my sleep/overall health returned.

9. Chelation: The more I chelate the better I sleep.

The golden days of the perfect night sleep are a distant

memory. Doing all the things in this list doesn't guarantee

a good night sleep, however the more things I do, the better

my chances of peaceful rest.

Cheers,

Vince.

Melatonin can work, but most people I've heard from had problems

with it. Many people get worsened or new depression from it. Many

times it won't give an entire night's sleep. In that case an

immediate release and extended release taken together works. But

again, lots of people feel bad the next day after melatonin.

Other things to consider, along with the excellent tips that have

already been shared by others:

5htp 10mg-25mg (you'll have to empty out 50mg capsules). 5htp

converts to serotonin and then some of that to melatonin, but at the

body's own natural rate. For me and many people this can provide a

good deep sleep with lots of dreaming activity.

Valerian root. This herb works similar, though much less potent, as

xanax, klonopin, and other benzodiazepines. I like Valerian once in

a while at 100mg (1/2 dose) when I just want to catch up on a good

night of sleep.

Other helpful herbs include Passionflower, Skullcap, and Lemon Balm.

Chamomile is popular in Europe for insomnia. Like melatonin though,

it makes people who are prone to depression more depressed sometimes.

The prescription med Lunesta works good with low potential for

poopout, tolerance or addiction. Especially if you use it once every

2 or 3 nights instead of every night.

Many antidepressants are quite sedating. Very tiny doses of things

like remeron (7.5mg), amitriptyline (5mg-10mg), or the antipsychotic

seroquel (10mg-25mg) (therapeutic doses are 400mg)...these things

will knock you out for a deep sleep.

The natural substance GABA helps some people, as do similar things

such as glycine or magnesium.

Dr Teitelbaum has an interesting comments about the dose of melatonin. He

says the body makes in the order 0.5mg per day, and so he doses within that

level so has to allow the body some control over its production and level.

Just like with dosing HC under 20mg.

He would then combine other natural remedies and drugs if need be,

preferring to use many combinations of low doses, rather than high doses of

one option.

Tryptophan or 5-HTP would allow the body more control over melatonin

production. A good thing in my opinion.

Rather dose hormones way up the chain if you can, rather than down the

chain. e.g. rather use fish oils or pregnenolone for adrenals. If you get no

response then move toward HC and DHEA.

Thanks,

I was afraid to take 2 mg of melotonin, then I read on here that

people take 6-10 mg. Is there such a thing of taking too much of it?

IF 1mg doesn't do it and 2 mg helps a lot but not to stay asleep all

night, should I try 3 mg?

I would try some time-released melatonin with the regular stuff.

In general, I think people's dosing of supplements varies, and the

only way you really find out your own appropriate dose is by trial

and error. I personally find it best to start with smaller amounts

and increase slowly in case there is a reaction. If you do okay

then you can work up gradually.

When considering advice from conventional sources, remember that

mercury toxic people often do not have conventional needs.

I benefit from 2-3 mg doses of melatonin, but some people do need

a lot more.

I guess melatonin dose is individual, and people should take what works

for them. I will just pass on that my hormone specialist, Thierry

Hertoghe, said that sublingual works best, and that anything over 1.5mg

is a horses' dose!!

The thing to remember is that it drives down cortisol, so those with

weak adrenals may have problems with adrenalin surges and hypoglycemia

in the middle of the night. For that reason, I can't go near it....

I have just discovered the joy of getting a full nights sleep, every

night (I was a can't get to sleep kind) through the use of 9-10mgs of

melatonin a night. Prior to that I had tried up to 6 mgs with no

effect. n did nothing and the epsom salts and magnesium (which

like to mess up my gut) were unreliable. I think tryptophan has been

banned in the US... not sure about Canada where I am now.

tryptophan was banned in the US years ago after some bad batches killed some

people. But the last few years its back on the market and available at many

online health food/vitamin suppliers, I have bought it easily now. Its not a

great cure for me at this point. I have an appointment to get my last HUGE

amalgam out in 2 wks and also take off some cheap scary metal (what my dentist

calls them) crowns that are directly above and next to that mercury tooth, and

replace it all with 3 crowns of the same materials. No chelating for me yet.

I also have great trouble sleeping, however I did find that valerian

did help. In the UK there is a company called Lane's who do a

valerian with other herbs, though you do need to take them throughout

the daytime as well as before going to bed.
