    Personally I find melatonin is better for making yourself fall asleep earlier on time, rather than fall asleep when it’s too late. So for example if you want to start falling asleep at 8pm and you don’t feel remotely sleepy that’s when you take the melatonin. Better for correcting sleep phases than actually helping you sleep like a sedative. Bad side effects are feeling like crap in the morning and weird dreams… btw I think your dream could be interpreted quite creatively as an allegory about trust and boundaries.

    As someone who has been notoriously bad at waking up early and never been a morning person I will say that having a regular job that gets you out of the house will eventually help get you used to it. Money is a great motivator.
