ZMA- really do anything?

[Spongy]

I'll be honest with you, I had great results with ZMA. Maybe it's placebo but i get a euphoric feeling in a very minor way and sleep well. Melatonin, benadryl, etc make me wake up wanting to die... now maybe it's because i don't have a history of sleep issues, but I just wanted to put my opinion in. FYI, I'm alcohol free for a couple years now and that may be the biggest difference. Alcohol will absolutely wreck your sleep of it's a habit.

Never been a big drinker, ill go months between alky beverages, but usually when i do partake, i make up for lost time lol. Just the other night i was craving my Crown & Dr. Pepper so i stopped and grabbed a bottle, then wife wanted some BBQ at a restaurant way out of our way so we never go but every few years, so that night was waaay out of my norm.

ive tried melatonin when i worked 3rd (really ****ed me up- 5hrs a day sleep average, 2hr after i got kids off too school, then a 3hr pwr nap before work- rinse and repeat for 5yrs
but that stuff didnt help me none unfortunately
