Insomnia

[liv2ski]

Yup, did the drops last night and slept 9pm to 5am. That is great for me. Groggy, but likely a combo of weed hangover and getting up to early.

Where’s that picture of a big clown hammer when you need it?

So jealous of the people that get help from edibles. Unless I have an unpleasant amount I have a harder time falling asleep on them.

Please counsel with a doctor soon.

Just bumping this thread because I just woke up from a 3 hour nap and feel fantastic. I normally nap an hour like every other day but today's nap was amazing. Nice benefit of working from home while semi retired, lunch and a nap to survive the insomnia.

Have you tried anything with concentrated cbn? Not cbd, cbn.

[liv2ski]

40mg is way too much, I mean if your burning an 1/8th a day, yeah maybe. Since I stopped burning, 10mg’s before bed and reading for a half hour is all I need to sleep through the night.

My wife's banana bread with homemade THC butter works best, but in a pinch I do about 35 mg of 30 to 1 tincture and that does the trick too. You are likely much younger, hence why you don't need as much.

This. With that said it’s an open link molecule and can convert to THC depending the the person’s PH level in the intestine if orally consumed. While rare, this can lead to a “hot” drug test and could be an issue for certain professions.

Checking in.

Negative, sorry, wish I saw your reply sooner, this would be a good evening to be experimenting lol. Will look into cbn.

Read through this thread again for suggestions as I am up to 10mg of sleepy time gummies and still awake 2-3 hours a night.
See my doc for an annual exam this week so will request some Lunesta.

[Kenny Satch]

Thaleia you really helped me out. The CBN oil works and now I found a nice balance with micro dosing with some Indica edibles.


Been sleeping like never before. thanks again.

Ask doc about low dose Seroquel. Not habit forming and works wonders.

[Yonder_River]

There are pens that have CBN with THC as well. Nice to have if you wake up to pee and then have a puff before laying back down. If I'm feeling a little untired before bed, I'll have a 10 mg thc gummie with 10 cbd.

White noise, ear plugs and eye mask.

I heard wrg recommend magnesium powder in another thread so may check that out.

I have borderline insomnia so try to make sure I keep it in check.

I'd be fine if I didn't have to pee at night. How on earth do I solve that issue???

[liv2ski]

Right? That's where it starts. Well and taking the dogs out to pee too.

Try this.

This sounds a little cheesy, but I’ve found that a super basic meditation technique works well to stop my mind from winding up and racing. Pay attention to the breath. Like REALLY focus on your breathing. Not necessarily focusing on ‘doing’ the breathing, but just noticing what’s happening. Ex: The feeling as the air moves in and out through your nose.
Those other thoughts will try and intrude, but just say, “Not tonight, brain” and bring it back to the breath.

And that overcomes the urge to empty the bladder?

[joetron]

No. Get up and piss like a big boy, but when you go back to bed focus on breathing instead of whatever dumb shit you might otherwise think about that keeps you awake.

Try this.

Sure, that may work for some of you and the Canadians here, but I need a 2-3" hose clamp.

Perfect, if you're girthy.

You missed the point about doing alright other than having to piss. I have issues. I'm working with the urologist, but it's slow going. Dadum ching.

Look into Utiva Cranberry Supplement for Urinary Tract Health. It's been a game changer. Instead of getting up 4 to 6 times a night I only get up once and some nights not at all. It's for UTI but it allows you to evacuate a lot more prior to bed time. It might be worth a try.
