Sorry for the delay in answering.
I find ago's sleep-enhancing properties far superior to melatonin: melatonin depresses me in short order. On ago, I just feel "okay".. which, come to think about it, is quite noteworthy, considering how badly I'd been doing.
I did experience some rushes of anxiety early in treatment, but didn't connect them to the ago. Actually, I cut my first trial short after 10 after developing really bad sinus/infection-like/ fluish symptoms.
Maybe I'll discuss trying 50mg with my doc.
