I would recommend you start with a CBD dominant (very little THC) sublingual tincture, then progress to oral capsules once you know the milligrams that work for you. If the insomnia is severe. I would suggest a combination of a sublingual tincture- because of its rapid effects that can help you fall asleep more quickly. And also capsules, which are released slower, making them effective at helping people stay asleep, for a total daily dosage of CBD 40-160 mg.\n\ntatiananp","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_7765-markdown","title":"Will CBD resin help me sleep?","slug":"will-cbd-resin-help-me-sleep","content":"\n_____________________\nI have never heard of taking CBD resin for sleep. That does not mean people do not do it, but it's certainly more unusual. Typically people use varying doses of THC to sleep, in the form of an edible or vaping, for instance. For some people, CBD does do the trick, but i have equally heard of people not being able to sleep on CBD. It really depends upon you and what works best. If you have not tried THC, I might suggest a low micro dose of an edible. I take under 5mg and it helps me. With CBD, it would depend on the product, but in my experience a capsule or edible will make me very relaxed whereas a tincture does not. I am not a doctor and this is only my personal experience! I hope this helps.\n\npamelahadfield","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_7757-markdown","title":"I took cannabis to help me sleep, but instead it kept me up!

You can try 1/2 tsp and go into your dispensary and discuss the effects with a pharmacist. I am quoting from @eeknight which may help from our \"Insomnia\" discussion board:\n\n\"Most people do not find CBD helpful for sleep. Most high CBD strains are sativa strains which tends to stimulate and uplift rather than relax. High CBD is great for daytime but for night time, I would suggest a High THC tincture, but use a low dose. With a low dose you get the benefit of body relaxation without the \"high\". With tinctures you can control the dose very easily. Most of our tinctures use Indica strains which are body relaxing and perfect for sleep. I find for myself THC tinctures help me sleep deeper and longer throughout the night.\"\n\nrachelnp","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_7711-markdown","title":"I have severe sleep disorder originally triggered by late stage Lyme disease.

Be mindful to avoid sativa strains close to bedtime, as they are likely to make you feel more energetic and stimulate cerebral activity that might make it difficult to rest when it's time to sleep.\n\nkastre","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_7682-markdown","title":"How do I medicate effectively for severe insomnia & nighttime anxiety ","slug":"how-do-i-medicate-effectively-for-severe-insomnia-nighttime-anxiety","content":"\n_____________________\nHello. Medical Marijuana may help with your anxiety and insomnia. I would suggest 40mgs CBD dominant dose during the day and a 1:1 40mgs dose at night before bedtime. THC may exacerbate anxiety, that's why it's important to keep your daily dose CBD dominant.  Research found that 1:1 THC:CBD ratio provides the most therapeutic relief across wide categories of ailments, including having the best effect on sleep and relieving anxiety. \n\ntatiananp","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_7650-markdown","title":"Can you use cannabis to taper off sedatives?","slug":"can-you-use-cannabis-to-taper-off-sedatives","content":"\"What dose and ratio of CBD/THC would assist me in my tapering off alprazolam and reduce withdrawal symptoms?

Please help.\"\n_____________________\nSeveral clients have been able to taper using CBD only, and they are able to do it quickly in less than a month. Same goes for all other addictive substances. Almost all addictions are regulated through the same reward centers of the brain. CBD has been shown in preclinical studies to interfere with that process and prevent the cravings as well as withdrawal symptoms.\n\ndrblair","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_7623-markdown","title":"I have migraines and sleep problems.  What strains do you recommend?","slug":"i-have-migraines-and-sleep-problems-what-strains-do-you-recommend","content":"\n_____________________\nDepending on what you have to do during the day you must adjust your medication to suite the situation you face during the day. \nIf you wake up with a migraine, it is early and a couple hours from the time you have to leave for work, drink a large glass of water, put CBD dominant salve on your neck to stop the muscle spasms, drink a mug of black coffee or black tea and vaporize a Jack Herer and your migraine should leave in about 10-20 min or you may repeat the process. When you have done a Sativa during the day, please be sure to do a high dose CBD at night (Like AC/DC) to bind with the THC in your body and it will make a powerful Indica and you will sleep and wake refreshed because you did high dose CBD at night and the longer you add more CBDs to your plan you will see in 1 month you are better but by 2 months you will notice a significant improvement in your health.\n\ndrolson","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_7568-markdown","title":"I have several medical problems.

What form of marijuana can help me?\"\n_____________________\nAll of these conditions respond well to CBD with the side benefit of improved sleep. CBD reduces anxiety related REM sleep shifting to greater time in stage 4, deep sleep. CKD is an inflammatory condition of the kidney that can be stabilized and prevented from progression using CBD. It has specific action on the filtering and support cells in Glomerulus and Loop. Diverticulosis may be related to dysfunctional muscles of the colon. CBD can correct both the inflammation and better regulate peristalsis. Using CBD my wife has reduced her events from 8/month to <1. Look for CBD from global company with independent lab analysis (COA) online because CBD products vary widely.\n\ndrblair","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_10486-markdown","title":"looking for a vape pen for insomnia, low THC","slug":"looking-for-a-vape-pen-for-insomnia-low-thc","content":"","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_10432-markdown","title":"hello, i have Aspergers, i have anxiety, ocd, ptsd, insomnia, depression and also panick when i worry","slug":"hello-i-have-aspergers-i-have-anxiety-ocd-ptsd-insomnia-depression-and-also-panick-when-i-worry","content":"\"Yeah what I am really nervous about, because alot of high thc strains do help especially pure sativas, but what ive been scared by prohibitionists is that somehow im going to go insane from my cannabis, I have no fam history of psychotic disorders at least 5 generations back and I don't act paranoid stoned or not stoned, when im stoned I don't really care about other unnecessary stuff tbh, and if i feel uneasy at the time for a reason i may panick and worry, Any help? my therapist sais im fine and I don't have any delusions etc but he knows nothing about cannabis, please tell me im not mad :/ im extremely nervous and just want my herb in peace, i may have not worded this properly as i am a little anxious about this topic but I really am looking for an awnser which isnt take some cbd, because i have taken cbd but thc allows me to function creatively and have fun and be confident and energetic, hope you can help because i feel awfully nervous :) I also hate the way the prohibitionists say well its all going fine now but soon youll have psychotic episodes then youll be stuck insane like that forever\"\n_____________________\nCBD alone has been very effective for your symptoms. In fact many people are reporting complete resolution of PTSD because CBD has specific pathways to block the amygdala reconsolidation while enhancing the ability to extinguish bad memories. CBD also restores the endocannabinoid system balance by inhibiting FAAH enzyme that breaks down \nour anandamide and 2-AG. In addition CBD normalizes the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis modulating adrenaline and cortisol. About 60mg of CBD may be needed.\n\ndrblair","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_10415-markdown","title":"Best CBD for sleep","slug":"best-cbd-for-sleep","content":"","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_10376-markdown","title":"What recommendations do you have for both sleep as well as a upper/lift feeling?","slug":"what-recommendations-do-you-have-for-both-sleep-as-well-as-a-upper-lift-feeling","content":"\n_____________________\n1:1 THC-CBD extracts provide the most therapeutic relief across all categories.
