When I took it, it was because I was only able to naturally sleep 1h per night, and after a month of this I was fairly suicidal. It did knock me out, hard, and it kept doing so every night I took it. I slept at least 10h a night and was groggy most of the time. It did decrese my anxiety and my chronic pain though and got me to sleep at night, so all that was good. Plus I do tend to not eat enough, so this increased my appetite, and I agree it increased cravings for sweets, but I needed it since I was working out 5 days a week. Now that I am off it, my shoulder hurts to much to work out at all anymore, and I still have trouble sleeping, but my depression is under control so I'd rather not take it just to sleep better. I will have to find some other way to control chronic pain so I can get back to the gym.
