i 100% believe that people in the next century will look back at people right now popping melatonin every night (and especially giving it to their kids) the same way we look at people in 1890 putting cocaine in their cough medicine. you mark my words that shit ain't right.

No, you're not fucked! I probably should have elaborated so I didn't worry people. It's just extremely unregulated, most doses sold (anything > than 0.3mg) are overdoses, and we don't totally know the role it plays in sexual development + stuff like SSRI interactions
So far it DOES seem to be safe and all side effects seem to be minor, but just from my experience with the industry, I think it needs a lot more caution as a daily sleep aid than people give it, especially if they're not selective with reputably tested brands
