What the heck does pot have to do with sleep? I sleep 1,000 times more sound with it, and i still sleep like a baby without it, As its been suggested, try melatonin..... |

I would rather die on my feet then to live on my knees.

I couldnt get to sleep real good last night because a bad customer of mine gave me some anxiety. I took (1) 3 mg melatonin and feel asleep pretty quick. I heard the 5-htp is better...I'm gonna get some of that. |

I found away to fall asleep... |

I used to have really bad insomnia. I'd go days without ANY sleep. I mean not even a few hours. Anyways. I realized I didnt really need sleep as bad as I thought I did. Just go to bed when your tired, and wake up everyday at the exact same time, even if you didnt get enough sleep. When your body really needs it, it will sleep. Eventually your body will adjust and youll start falling asleep at the right time and youll start getting the right amount of hours. |

Yeah but it is still hard for me to fall asleep but now I am getting enough sleep...Like 6 hours a night which is ok with me. |

The problem is today it is really hard to know exactly what you're getting when it comes to weed. So much shit out there nowadays is laced with something else so that it could be passed of as some exotic strain and sold for more. People who don't really know their shit is susceptible to this. |

Laced marijuana is extremely rare. Police testing continues to prove this. For one, the method for binding powder to marijuana is not simple, some drugs are liquid/syrup and are easier but more rare (e.g. ketamine) and still make a noticeable change to the bud a habitual user would see, if they don't realize its laced by visual inspection they will once they use it and then the dealer probably just lost a customer and has someone that wants to kick their ass. Secondly, other drugs are much more expensive by weight than marijuana, it costs more to lace it than you could hypothetically increase the value. Its hard to use potency as a selling point when you can't let the customer smoke the stuff because they will realize its laced. In the countless pounds of weed I've smoked in the past 13 years I have never seen laced weed or heard of anyone who has. I've laced some myself with various drugs, but that is typically in a blunt or on top of a bowl, i've never tried to bind a drug to the buds and then store or sell the laced buds. There is no motivation for a dealer to lace weed and there are tons of reasons why they shouldn't, I'm sure it still happens sometimes, but very rarely. |

Here in California it is very common for dealers to lace their weed. People out here will dip a joint or blunt in "water" PCP. By looking at it you wont notice anything different but if you smell it carefully you can smell the PCP scent but.... most people will not even notice anything or what to look for. PCP is cheap.... that is why dealers will dip their product in it and claim it is a stronger strain of weed and sale it for a lot more. There are a lot of young people that fall for this. |

well, i got a sample off of some guy who was just an acquaintance a few years ago (maybe not the smartest move, but hey it was free), and it was only the size of a pencil eraser, but it got me and my friend VERY high. we were literally out of it (in a good way). it must have been laced, because i have never been so high off of so little bud (basically i smoked only half of a pencil erasers worth, maybe even less). i've heard stories of very potent weed that would do that to you, so i don't know. |

weed is only a mis. in Cali- but if you are a professional- forget it....I tried the "just get the sleep you can" thing but found out if you have a JOB it doesn't work- I wont even tell you the amount of stuff I've tried, from the holistic to the opiate....the opiate works of course...but for me, if you just need to SLEEP (and this will sound weird) try nyquil. Sleep pills (otc) make me hinky and weed or drink makes me weirded....nyquil will put me to sleep (not out) but to "sleep"....but dont end up on "intervention"-makes you look like an ameateur |

You can't sleep because you are a teenager. It is quite common between the age of 13 and 18 to have trouble sleeping at night. Look into it. You'll out grow it. |
|
Also you may think that you haven't slept more than 6 hours in 2 days (or whatever), but quite often when you are sleep deprived you do sleep and just don't realize it. There is no real way of knowing how much you really slept unless you have a hidden camera and sensors detecting your nightly patterns. |

Yes I do understand the whole ten and sleeping thing, And I understand that teens do like saying I only slept like 5 hours but that isn't me..I would rather not brag about 5 hours of sleep, I do sleep better now, But for three weeks it took alot for me to sleep. |

After smoking a lot regularly, and then cutting back, almost everyone I know has had trouble falling asleep. The solution that worked for them, is smoking before bed. But that turned into them not being able to sleep well unless they smoked. I used to be a heavy smoker, but after quitting my job, and then not being able to find another one all summer, I've had to cut back a lot. Now whenever I do get the chance to smoke, I just get completely fried on a level beyond what I'd get when I smoked regularly. |

Just wanted to say not all sleep problems are caused by undisciplined behavior. I've had severe insomnia for 5 years, exercise every day, eat as healthy as I can, and have recently given up TV and video games. I've also tried sleeping pills, hypnosis, various kinds of therapy, and drugs. Sometimes regular methods just don't work. That's why we have the irregular ones. |
