Since I was in high university, I struggled with sleep concerns, and the concern became worse as I grew older; When I’m stressed, sleep is just about impossible… If I have due dates for projects at work, there’s no hope of falling asleep at night! My mind won’t shut down.
I’ve tried all the recommended apartment remedies.
I’ve stayed away from computer & cable screens in the night. I’ve added intensive aerobic exercise to our weekly routine. I have sprayed our pillow with lavender & drank all weird flavors of herbal teas, and nothing helped. I was unwilling to take sleeping pills or any type of prescription medication. Lying in bed awake for sixths & feeling tired in the day is exhausting but better than the side effects of synthetic drugs. The legalization of recreational weed in Michigan changed everything. I had been reluctant to go through the labor & expense of getting a medical marijuana card that expired in a year. The ability to visit a dispensary in Muskegon has allowed me to purchase cannabis products that help me sleep, then because it’s a plant-based, all-natural medicine, cannabis is safe & eliminates concerns with harmful side-effects. My local weed shop carries a wide assortment of indicas & hybrids that are ideal for treating insomnia. I love the quick onset of effects of tinctures, vapes & pre-rolls; However, I also have had success with edibles. While they take longer to set in, the effects are more intensive & last for sixths. I eat a gummy, piece of chocolate or a area of a cookie about a half sixth before bed. They taste superb & allow me to relax. My mind settles down & the tension leaves our muscles. I am so thankful that I have easy access to the dispensary in Muskegon.
