I wish melatonin worked for me. Or CBD oil, or chamomile tea, or Advil PM, or anything.

Same...
CBD does absolutely nothing for me.
Chamomile is slightly noticable but very mild.
I only tried melatonin after I read the Cleveland clinic study that said it can shorten Covid infectiousness, but it didn’t make me tired or sleep differently.

Valerian Root works for me though.
I rarely ever have insomnia but when I do, about 45 min after taking it zzzzzzzz

CBD oil is more effective when mixed with thc. It will make you tired so only take at bedtime. The sublingual drops come at different ratios, like 2:1 (CBD to thc), 3:1, 4:1. Of course it has to be legal in your state and if you are drug tested you will test + for cannabis. It helps for chronic pain as well, but could take a few weeks to keep the cannabinol receptors full and you notice less pain or less bouts. But that helps if you run out; the receptors will again take 2 weeks to empty and give you time to get more.

Same way...

none of that crap works on me either..add to the list Zquil,hydrocodone, meloxican, nocor (sp), trazadone... all to relieve pain and help sleep after rotator cuff surgury. Only thing that works is time.

You could try Benadryl as a short-term or Bonine (Meclizine) the anti sea-sick drug.

Knowing you are not alone in this can help, and prayer. FR should have a special caucus for such sufferers.

As the other comment noted, cbd with thc works for me (vaped oil — only 4 inhales), almost every time. Great if it’s legal where you are. Indica strains are best for sleep, not sativa.

Failing that, mirtazapine or doxepin (both Rx) will do the trick, even at extremely low doses. Those are both considered antidepressants but the dose used as a sedative can be much lower, at least if only used occasionally.
