    THC has been a tremendous help. I just fall asleep in seconds. It has helped me to fall into deep sleep for the first time in a very long time. Alcohol was terrible

        Sativa is what I do. I’ve had insomnia my whole life. I basically never go into deep sleep. My sleep has always been light and messy until I met THC. I now sleep like a baby. My mental health has improved a ton (the magic of sleeping well 😁). All positive so far. I haven’t had a single negative. I exclusively smoke it before bed time and only one single hit out of my pen, no more no less and ONLY before bed time.

          My husband has PTSD induced insomnia. THC has helped him IMMENSELY with both the sleep and the nightmares. He used to take several heavy prescription drugs, but now he only uses cannabis. It’s made a huge difference in his quality of life.

            I’m so glad it is working out for him. Mine isn’t PTSD luckily, but just me.

              I didn’t want to say so, but this is true! Of course, I’m so happy for him most of all, but he’s also so much more approachable when he’s getting enough sleep and when his PTSD isn’t kicking in.

      THC def better, but if I really need sleep the combo of the two is best. Just have to be careful with timing and amounts. THC keeps the dreams away.
