Weed
deew
Weed is a stimulant. I鈥檝e always had trouble sleeping and people have always suggested weed, and I鈥檝e always told them it doesn鈥檛 help because it鈥檚 a fucking stimulant and makes it harder to fall asleep and they look at me like I鈥檓 the crazy one.
Different terpenes have different effects though. People can use weed to stop themselves having seizures.
So, specific terpenes might make people sleepy? Even if that鈥檚 the case, it still increases their heart rate. So the people who get stoned before bed have elevated heart rates while sleeping, which could cause adverse effects on sleep quality. I鈥檓 no sleep expert so I don鈥檛 know if a higher heart rate while sleeping is an issue, though.
Yep plenty of people use it for sleep, myself included. And I don鈥檛 have a lot of knowledge on the physical effects of weed (so still do your own research, don鈥檛 take a random internet persons words as fact) but as the sleep quality thing goes, I think you are right in that. But I also think it depends on the person. Like for instance you may get worse sleep quality sure, but might find it hard to sleep at all. If the weed does get you to sleep but with not as good quality, then that鈥檚 better than no/only a little sleep right? Also with tolerance most people don鈥檛 get the increase in heart rate as much. ROA is a factor too, like you鈥檇 be better off taking than edible than having a smoke to get to sleep and stay asleep.
