I wake up at 3am or 4am and have trouble going back to sleep. Any ideas for how I can tweak the dose for better sleep?\"\n_____________________\nMost people do not find CBD helpful for sleep. Most high CBD strains are sativa strains which tends to stimulate and uplift rather than relax. High CBD is great for daytime but for night time, I would suggest a High THC tincture, but use a low dose. With a low dose you get the benefit of body relaxation without the \"high\". With tinctures you can control the dose very easily. Most of our tinctures use Indica strains which are body relaxing and perfect for sleep. I find for myself THC tinctures help me sleep deeper and longer throughout the night.\n\nPiantaTinta","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_10286-markdown","title":"Will cannabis help with my insomnia?","slug":"will-cannabis-help-with-my-insomnia","content":"\n_____________________\nCannabis can help with insomnia. Typically I recommend using indica or CBD to help with insomnia. Indica is THC dominant and has the side effect of sedation or drowsiness. CBD is non-psychoactive and can be helpful as well. I also recommend modifying your lifestyle and evening habits to create a peaceful environment that can be therapeutic even without medication.\n\ndrjacquelynlew","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_10253-markdown","title":"Can hash help alleviate insomnia?","slug":"can-hash-help-alleviate-insomnia","content":"\n_____________________\nHash or Hashish is an extract of the cannabis plant, containing concentrations of the psychoactive resins. Hash normally contains higher concentrations of THC than CBD, however the THC:CBD ratio's vary in different types of Hash strains. Studies have shown that cannabis improves the quality and duration of sleep and helps manage various sleep disorders.\n\ntatiananp","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_10222-markdown","title":"Will cannabis help sleep and anxiety issues?","slug":"will-cannabis-help-sleep-and-anxiety-issues","content":"\n_____________________\nYes cannabis is very helpful for sleep and anxiety. These conditions are often closely related and treating one often helps the other. A whole plant tincture with CBD and THC is a good place to start.\n\nandrewvanmd","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_10012-markdown","title":"Is CBN the best marijuana product when all you want is to go to sleep -- no other impact?","slug":"is-cbn-the-best-marijuana-product-when-all-you-want-is-to-go-to-sleep-no-other-impact","content":"\n_____________________\nyes but don't expect the cbn to be very high. 0.25%:CBN could be plenty with a balanced cannabinoid profile from a nice full term indica heavy flower.\nthe flowers thc or cbd % will always be higher than the cbn's.\n\nsoosti","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_10007-markdown","title":"Can cannabis be used to treat a sleep walking disorder?","slug":"can-cannabis-be-used-to-treat-a-sleep-walking-disorder","content":"\n_____________________\nSleepwalking, formally known as somnambulism, results in walking or performing other complex behaviors while asleep; it is much more common in children than in adults; and is much more likely to occur if a person is sleep deprived. Of course, as a very effective sleep aid, cannabis should help most people who are sleep deprived and therefore reduce the chance of a sleepwalking episode. \n\nHowever, unfortunately in regards to sleepwalking, cannabis extends the restorative deep stages of sleep (stage 3 and stage 4 sleep), which are the same stages sleepwalking most often occurs, thus increasing the chances of a sleepwalking episode.\n\nSimply put, cannabis' effect on sleeping patterns increases the chances of having a sleepwalking episode. Therefore, unfortunately, my opinion is that cannabis would not be a good choice as a treatment for sleepwalking.  \n\nFor more information on sleepwalking,\nhttp://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/sleepwalking/basics/treatment/con-20031795\n\ndrkim","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_9985-markdown","title":"What can you recommend to calm internal tremors without making me sleepy?

I'm trying to find a product which will calm my vibrations.  I use \"AYA\" Slumber and it helps me sleep, but what might I use during the day ??\"\n_____________________\nMany people find that CBD can have a calming effect - although it's a little hard to know what is causing the internal tremors and vibrations you describe.  By itself, CBD does not have known intoxicating effects, so you could likely take it during the day without getting sleepy.\n\ndrbultman","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_9972-markdown","title":"Can you develop a tolerance to CBD?","slug":"can-you-develop-a-tolerance-to-cbd","content":"\"I started vaping CBD April 12, 2017.

What can I do?  \"\n_____________________\nI might wonder if you have change something in your medication treatment plan that has tied up your receptor sites. You may need to take a cannabis holiday for 1 to 7 daysTo make sure your receptor sites are clean to except the cannabis. If you have added a new medication that actually maybe blocking your receptor sites. Have you tried an oral CBD spray? How much THC are you using? Did you change your THC intake level? I personally have not seen resistance or tolerance to CBD but that certainly doesn't mean it doesn't exist.\n\ndrolson","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_9970-markdown","title":"What type of marijuana lozenge would you recommend for insomnia?","slug":"what-type-of-marijuana-lozenge-would-you-recommend-for-insomnia","content":"\n_____________________\nInsomnia is one of the most common reasons that patients pursue the use of medical marijuana.  Depending on your experience level with marijuana, often it is wise to start with a low dose of THC, between 2.5 and 5 mg at night time, augmented with CBD to prevent side effects.  Unfortunately, higher doses of unopposed THC can lead to side effects such as anxiety or a feeling that your mind is racing, which could make falling asleep harder, which is why it would be smart to start off with a low dose, balanced product.\n\ndrbultman","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_9938-markdown","title":"Can I obtain a California medical marijuana card through your organization?

CBD tends to be energizing at low doses and sedating at high doses. However, some patients experience sedation with small doses so like always, start low and increase slowly until you are falling asleep within 30 minutes and sleeping for 7-8 hours. \n\ndrfrye","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_9885-markdown","title":"my friend has 1:1 CBD:THC pills that r 2.5 mg each they r from a dispensary. will they work 2 help her sleep?","slug":"my-friend-has-1-1-cbd-thc-pills-that-r-2-5-mg-each-they-r-from-a-dispensary-will-they-work-2-help-her-sleep","content":"\"This is for my mom who doesn't smoke or tried marijuana in her life. \"\n_____________________\nI have difficulty with anything with THC when it comes to sleeping.
