      When I take it consecutive nights the effect seems to add up and just make me more and more groggy all the time. Also the nightmares I have on it are horrendous. Usually I just take it on Sundays to get my sleep schedule switched back to weekday time and that works well enough.

        You might be taking too much. I used to take 3 mg semi regularly to help get to sleep quickly on weeknights, and I would sometimes be groggy in the mornings. One time I decided that I really needed to sleep so I took 6 mg and got the weird dreams and was super groggy the next day. I’ve cut back since then.

          Yeah, i think mine were 5/10mg, I know there were 2 options at the store and I got the weaker ones but it was more than 3mg. I just don’t use it much and it’s fine.
