Suffering From Insomnia? Marijuana Might Be Your Answer 12 May, 2016

Marijuana- Answer to Insomnia

Suffering From Insomnia? Marijuana Might Be Your Answer

Essence - May 12, 2016/in Blog Essence /by [email protected]

It is not at all uncommon for people to have a hard time going to sleep. In fact, insomnia is becoming more and more prevalent as people try to pack more tasks into their daily lives and become more stressed out as a result of it all. For anyone who has ever suffered from insomnia, it is obvious how debilitating this particular condition can really be.

If you suffer from it yourself, you already know that it can have an adverse impact on virtually everything that you do, even the relationships that you have. It can be detrimental on all levels – on a physical, mental, and emotional level.

What you might not have considered is that in some cases, marijuana might actually be able to help treat your insomnia. There are several reasons why the use of medical marijuana can help you if you chronically have problems falling asleep or staying asleep. Of course, it is important to understand which particular strain of marijuana can help you sleep and which ones will actually contribute to the condition that you are trying so hard to combat.

The Right Strain

There are many different strains of medical marijuana. For example, Sativa produces a high that makes it difficult to sleep. Conversely, Indica usually makes you drowsy. It works especially well for insomnia sufferers when you use a strain of Indica that has high CBD and low THC levels. Cannabis that has been aged for several years actually works better for combating insomnia than cannabis that is newer.

This is because when marijuana is stored, especially in a warm, dry place, the THC levels that tend to keep you awake slowly convert into CBD, resulting in a strain that has even higher levels. This in turn can help you feel drowsy and it makes it easier to fall asleep.

By the same token, better sleep can be produced when using low THC Indica cannabis in conjunction with other natural remedies like lavender, chamomile, and hops, as well as valerian root and melatonin.

Combining aromatherapy or natural supplements with the use of this particular strain of cannabis can make it much easier to relax, both mentally and physically. The end result is that it typically becomes much easier to let go of the day’s worries and relax comfortably so that you can fall asleep and get the restful sleep that you need.

Other Benefits

Another reason that this strain of cannabis can be so helpful is that it works exceptionally well for alleviating pain. It not only helps you relax, but it can also get rid of those nagging aches and pains that would otherwise keep you awake.

Since medical marijuana is used to treat anxiety and PTSD, it can also help you if you simply can’t turn off your mind long enough to go to sleep. All of this helps you fall asleep more quickly and more often than not, it helps you get much more restful sleep on a regular basis.

Another way that medical marijuana can help individuals with sleep issues is for use on patients who are suffering from sleep apnea. In this case, you want cannabis that is high in THC because it has a tendency to level out breathing. When breathing is better regulated, patients are less likely to suffer from bouts of sleep apnea that can wake them up and have a negative impact on their health.

As you can see, medical marijuana can be a huge help for anyone who is suffering from a condition that keeps them up at night. Sleep is one of the most important things for maintaining your health. Without it, it becomes impossible to maintain physical health or to be mentally alert.
