I have also observed that I usually wake up about 3 to 5 hours after
taking melatonin.  

It would be interesting to hear about other melatonin users, and
whether they observe the same effect.  It would be particularly
interesting to hear whether people using time-release melatonin
observe this, since I could use time-release melatonin.
