    Does weed really help insomnia? I’ve tried it and it might’ve helped me sleep quicker on a small enough dose, but it always felt like lower quality sleep. More recently I’ve heard weed at night worsens/ causes sleep issues (at least in the long-term?)

    • My subjective experience answering that is that it really depends on what kind of weed I’m smoking, some varieties really are more likely to have me feel tired and sleepy than others, but that no matter what, to me, being kinda stoned and not sleeping is still highly preferable to being entirely sober and not sleeping. Like I mean even if it doesn’t put me to sleep it still helps change the way i perceive sensation and time in a way that helps, versus me just sitting there. all night. every night.
