Good on you. As pointed out in Matthew Walker’s “Why We Sleep”, most doctors don’t have a lot of experience or training in sleep science. I’ve heard of magnesium supplements for increasing melatonin levels, since your body needs it in the production of the latter. Do you think that was the underlying cause?
While I’m here commenting, my breakthrough moment in getting good sleep was having a strictly enforced bed time. It took a couple weeks of struggle and mediocre sleep to get there, but it has made getting to sleep a lot easier now.
