10 mg melatonin too much?

Hi, I too suffer from problems sleeping and my doctor told me to try Melatonin, I tried it twice thinking the first time maybe my body had a reaction to it the first time, I stopped taking it because each time I took it, I felt like I was drunk when I woke up in the morning and had trouble even walking. I was light headed all day, felt like I was drunk when I wasn't and trouble walking all day. I will never take it again. If you have reactions to it, there are natural melatonin out there, but make sure you read the labels and check to make sure it won't cause problems with any other meds you may be taking. Be safe and hope you get some rest. StarrRaven*

I always tell people this. Melatonin is secreted in the pineal gland at a dose of approximately .3-.5 mgs. However pharmaceutical companies make it in very high doses which do cause you to wake up at night. I would take 1 mg, 3 max.
