Almost everyone takes too much of it when they do. The actual recommended dose is very low. Efficacy rapidly declines with habitual usage, and effective utilization requires that you go to bed very soon after taking it (lights out, no screens, etc). This said, it can be a good short term solution for sleep issues.

Yes, I've heard that, but in my personal experience I find high doses (relative to the 0.3mg or whatever prescription quantity) effective, with no negative side effects, and I have suffered no loss of efficacy with habitual usage (years). YMMV, but it's certainly worth trying vs continuing to only sleep for four hours every night.

If it works for you, that’s great.
