Sleep is something that is very difficult for me.
Not only do I struggle falling asleep, staying asleep is rough. I tried all sorts of natural remedies to fix this. I work out, eat right, meditate and eliminate blue light before bed. I even spruced up my sleeping situation. I have a top of the line mattress, bamboo sheets, a gel pillow and I use a sound machine. It didn’t really help. I tried sleeping pills. All it did was make me groggy but awake. It was a horrible sensation. So I then turned to medical weed. I was originally quite worried about relying on medical weed. I didn’t want to smoke, especially before bed. I didn’t want to smell like weed and have it on hand. It just seemed a bit trashy and classless to me. It shouldn’t have since it is a medical product. Well I then figured out that there are many forms of cannabis. The budtender at the medical weed dispensary informed me that I didn’t even need to smoke it. He actually recommended a tincture to me. It is an oil form that can go directly under the tongue or in a cup of tea at night. It has a slight aftertaste but it is totally worth it. The oil makes me sleepy and most importantly, keeps me asleep. There is a bit of THC in it but I don’t mind at all. I honestly would be high as a kite in order to sleep at night. That is how desperate I am.
