I recently started giving my son Melatonin. It has helped his sleeping problems dramatically. He would come into my room at midnight after lying in bed for three hours, and he would just sob that he couldn't get to sleep. Now he goes to sleep easily at his regular bedtime. He sometimes still wakes up at a ridiculously early hour, but that very seldom happens.

We've recently giving our son Melatonin, too. He, too, would lie in a dark room for hours unable to sleep. It's amazing the difference. He's not only able to go to sleep, but he's no longer tired at 10am the next day. He still has problems focusing, but at least they're not further complicated by being tired. The down side is that he's started experiencing mild to moderate stomach problems. We're still trying to determine if it's the Melatonin or something else.
