Take a 5mg gummy, actually break it in half, 2.5mg prior to bed, with some magnesium you'll be in a coma bro, you'll wake up rested and recovered.I eat a 5mg gummy
I don't doubt that weed makes you "rested and recovered." There is a million testimonials that say the same so it's clearly "true." But there's a millions of testimonials saying drinking wine at night does the same. The question is what it does to sleep architecture, what it does to the length of sleep stages. Both alcohol and weed have been stdied quite a lot and it's not just positive, often outright negative. There's this Dr named Sanjay Gupta, he does documentaries and does ccommentary for CNN, I guess he's a liberal lol. But he said that 10 years ago he did a documentary about weed and from his research he thought weed had very little going for it as far as legitimate uses. Now he did a sort of follow up documentary and now he is of the opinion that it has a number of legitimate uses, one being as as a "sleeping drug" for the elderly. He is so positive of the positive uses that he would actually recommend it for sleep to his elderly parents. I think that's a good measure of how you view certain substances, if you'd be comfortable giving it to someone you really care about. At the same time there's all this data on how it's not as good as "normal" sleep. Better than Ambien maybe for example but still with some negatives.
Have you noticed an effect on dreaming (lack of)? It's very commonly reported by weed lovers. To me that sounds like it could bad. My brother reports it and he's been smoking since 13, 45 now. He says the dreams he has after taking a break are very scary though it normalises after a while. When using heavily he says it will eventually cause negative, self critical thoughts. His son who is 19 told me the same the other day.
I almost only smoke late at night, like when I get home from lifting at midnight. Very nice. A few heavy hits in the morning or early in the day can be very uncomfortable, I get the paranoiac thoughts, don't want to go out in public, a sort of agoraphobia in mass gatherings and so on. A feeling of drowning, anxiety, I don't know how else to describe it.
I bought the Magnesium L-Threonate and also gave 3 nights worth to my mom. Neither of us could say it did anything noticeable, at least not acutely/immediately. She can get zopiclone to use for a few days a month only, she has tried amitriptyline and now is trialing the mirtazapine. The zopiclone will always work to put her to sleep but she's taken a few falls the last few years, once damaging her teeth falling due to a hole in the concrete. Falls is a well known side effect of the z-drugs and benzos. She also claims just a quarter of a 5mg pill is enough to help sleep. The most surprising positive side effect from the amitriptyline, aside from promoting sleep is her 15 year problem of productive cough disappearing overnight, but u fortunately it only lasted 3 months. I had suggested she ask her doc about it, to use for cough, after reading about uncommon treatments, and he scripted her immediately and it was like a miracle, at first. Mirtazapine works to a degree for sleep but she doesn't like how it makes her hungry for sweets (a common side effect).
Next I'll have her try glycine, perhaps theanine too, and maybe GABA. She's against weed as it's illegal and doesn't want anything that might make her feel "high." I've never seen "gummies" her nor any weed infused pastries etc. Anyone have an opinion on these HHC, or O-HHC or Delta9 or whatever they're called. I think bhank said the delta9 was pretty much like regular weed lol.
