Even the tiny amount of melatonin I take heightens light sensitivity, to the point where I have to cover up laptop lights etc. to get to sleep now. And I reliably wake sometime in the hour after dawn, so sleeping in doesn't really happen (in the summer anyway).

Not a major problem - if I want more sleep I can just go to bed earlier or not take the melatonin. Latter course keeps me up a bit later, of course.

Real exercise is hard to make time for while primary-caregiving but otherwise my life is much more organized and healthful now. Melatonin made it possible. In part by making regularized (not binge) tea intake possible.
