personally I've never had 'spider nightmares' from taking Benadryl, either...

Oddly enough, too much melatonin gives me intense nightmares. 3mg or less for me or it's a guaranteed bad time.

I’ve heard of that! From what I understand, melatonin actually works better in smaller doses, like even less than 1 mg. But for some reason it started being sold in higher and higher dosages.

I'm not saying this to be elitist or an asshole, or trying to be "better than"/superior or whatever, but for the most part, people really just aren't that smart and don't care to improve that situation. Think of the dumbest person that you know; statistically, half of all people are dumber than that.

"MORE MG MORE BETTER!"

people in general don't really research drugs or medications very carefully. Myself, I'd ascribe a lot of the blame to manufacturers, who should know better.
