Is Cannabis The ‘Cure’ I Have Been Seeking?
I have suffered from insomnia for most of my adult life.
There are nites when the wheel of my mind will simply not slow down enough for me to fall asleep. I have had literal sleepless nites when I could not sleep at all!
A couple times in my life I have had doctors prescribe a sleeping pill to help me sleep. The doctors are very hesitant to offer theses pills on a continual basis for fear of dependency. Therefore the relief they gave me was short lived at best.
What to do?
How can I get to sleep and stay asleep.
How about alcohol, can that be what I need to have a restful nite? After years of experimenting with alcohol, I realized that drug was simply not the answer I was looking for.
How about exercise? While it is healthful, and somewhat helpful for insomnia, working myself to exhaustion to finally find some relief was not the answer either.
Then I had a realization…..
Enter my savior….CANNABIS!
Cannabis Is The Answer
I simply bake my own edibles, the latest being a loaf of banana bread. I may have gone a bit overboard as only a half slice fills the bill. Eat more then that and you will begin to feel the dreaded ‘Oh my God, I have eaten too much cannabis!’
I can eat a half slice of my banana bread about 1/2 hour before bedtime, and fall soundly asleep…usually within a half hour or so.
I find I tend to stay asleep for several hours, and if I happen to awaken, I am actually kinda groggy, and able to quickly fall into a deep sleep again. Without the normal tossing and turning.
I have tried those 10 milligram gummies a time or two, but it seems with my resistance level (I dab hash oil maybe more then I should) I would have to consume the whole bottle to get the same effect.
Dosages would seem to be a personal matter with some folks needing more cannabis medicine then others so I will not delve into that.
Conclusion
Cannabis can be strong medicine for many of the ailments, illnesses, and issues that can beset us humans. With our cannabinoid receptors, and our Endocannabinoid System cannabis would seem to be the perfect fit. Even made to fit…God, did you do that?
We would seem to be designed for cannabis, and cannabis has been designed for us.
So there you have it, cannabis is the answer!
