Heres the thing...

Most of my life which hasn't been as long as some, but still the same I've had trouble sleeping not so much the sleeping part, but more of the getting to it part. It usually takes me about 40mins up to 2 hours to get to sleep. But what I've found that I get to sleep straight away when I'm baked a wee bit.

I was just wondering about other people thoughts on this, like if anyone elses uses marijuana to help get them to sleep, or if its a waste seeings you don't do anything or even if its a safe thing to practice.

I too can sleep better after smoking marijuana... but it works a bit too well, usually after I come down off of a high I become so tired that it's like I HAVE to go to bed.

As far as I know, marijuana is 100% safe. So, using it to fall alseep easier should be perfectly alright.

Good luck!

oh yeah, I highly agree. I take a nap during the day every single day, and I always smoke and then go to sleep, it is the fastest way by far to get to sleep.

Another thing to remember is that marijuana that is predominantly indica will make you alot more sleepier than some pure sativa. Strain is another thing to take into consideration when trying to sleep.

I have been getting stoned primarily to get to sleep every night for the last three months. I don't think it makes me sleepy, but it helps me relax enough so that when I'm already tired or sleepy I am able to fall asleep. It also seems to promote a deeper sleep than I might be getting without it.

If I've accidentally taken too much of something that wires me, like Sudafed, then getting totally stoned on pot will still give me pretty good rest even though I might not fall asleep. I just lay back and watch the patterns behind my eyelids...

It will help you get to sleep for sure, but be aware that you could become depedent on it. I have a few friends that go to bed high so much, that when they don't go to bed high, they can't fall alseep. Just thought I'd mention that.

it definatly does help i take 2 or 3 hits of my bowl everynight when i get in the bed but i would not recomend getting totaly stoned before going to sleep because then you will feel like sh!t in the mourning and will not want to wake up which would have some serious consequences for us that have a job

I haven't had any problems with a hangover effect. That's one reason I'm using pot; the sleeping pills I've tried in the past year all leave me groggy in the morning.

wouldnt really call it a hangover its just harder to get out of bed i think this might be attributed to the deep sleep that the MJ produces but once you get up and walk to the bathroom and splash a little water on your face it usually solves that problem

This is a very good point q43. I get drug tested in two weeks, so I had to stop smoking a few days ago. And it sucks! I really do have a very hard time getting to sleep without smoking. Something to definatly watch out for.

I have a friend when she smokes she only want to sleep..

I smoke almost every evening since almost 2 months and there is almost no difference when I go to bed. I'm the kind of guy that think too much in bed instead of trying to sleep. I don't know whay and I would really like to find a way to turn off the switch and able to sllep 5 minute after being in bed..

What I noticed yet is when I smoke in the evening then go to bed 1 hour or more later I really like the feeling of the (cloths? in french it's "draps") on me and I enjoy moving/twist a few minutes. Oh well, I don't know how to explain it in english, sorry.
