Comment on Ask HN: What actually helped you reduce stress & sleep when advice didn’t work?

Comments

Melatonin and L-theanine

what dosage?

L-theanine 100mg-400mg, test to optimize

Melatonin 1mg-3mg, test to optimize (less is usually more optimal, but everyone's biology is different)

Avoid alcohol whenever possible from a sleep perspective.

thanks

how did you know l-theanine worked? what shifted?

Noticeable calm and reduced "noise" when trying to sleep.
