A doctor has provided 1 answer

Anxiety/depression: You might want to have a visit with your doctor to find out if there might be some medical condition underlying your inability to sleep. Also, find out if 5-htp is the right supplement for you, rather than dosage being the issue. Working with a psychologist could help you to develop good anxiety management skills, which may improve your sleep.
