A friend of mine thought she was being very helpful about recommending an OTC sleep aid that worked for her. Since I rarely sleep through the night anymore, I purchased a bottle and tried it out.
I followed the instructions very precisely, making sure that I allowed myself at least eight hours of down time during the night. Unfortunately my days were spent in a fog and more depression than I've ever experienced before. I even pondered thoughts of ending it all.
Warning! If you experiment with self medication, even with "natural" or OTC stuff, be sure to let family members know what you are doing. Give them a chance to see if there is a change in your personality or physical activity.
