I will never ever joke around about insomnia again.
There was a time in my life where I thought it was just insane that people were unable to sleep.
When I was younger and up until I was about 35, I could fall asleep in seconds when I went to bed. Before I found medical cannabis just recently, the last 3 years have been sort of a blur. And I mean that most specifically. I just sort of dragged myself around for years. Losing my ability to sleep was something that happened sort of gradually. Initially, I would toss and turn for an hour or more before I would just get up and go watch TV. But ultimately, I would just fall asleep in the chair and that wasn’t really much sleep. It only got worse and I had to go to my doctor to get some help. Prior to using cannabis products, I ended up taking the medications I got from my doctor. But those medications came with plenty of side effects that were tough to handle. For sure, those pills will put me to sleep but it was almost a sort of foggy sleep. In other words, I just couldn’t really sleep but I also wasn’t really awake. And so the next day I would just drag myself around in a bit of a daze. My friend gave me some good medical marijuana information which led me to figuring out how to get my medical marijuana card. Once I started using sativa products, I really started to relax in a much more natural way. These days, I just have a bite off of cannabis gummies an hour before I go to bed. And by the time I crawl in between the sheets, I’m super relaxed and I get a good night’s sleep.
