Melatonin can help you sleep, as well as sleeping pills can, and without bad side effects. Altho some people say that it enhances their dreams, I think generally it is thought to suppress dreaming while it is in your system. That's OK, tho because the melatonin wears off quickly, and if you get a lot of deep sleep early in the night, you will have REM re-bound later in the morning hours. So you get the best of both--help getting to sleep, and more dreams later.
Some thing to remember--it's best to take the least amount that helps you get to sleep, and not every single night, so you don't suppress your brain's endogenous production.
