About 2 in 3 Americans who use marijuana say it improves their sleep, according to a new survey from the American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM).

The poll asked 2,007 American adults about their cannabis use and its sleep impacts.

Overall, about 33 percent of respondents said marijuana makes their quality of sleep “significantly” or “slightly” better, compared to 11 percent who said it has “no impact” and 8 percent who reported significantly or slightly worse sleep outcomes. The remaining 47 percent said they don’t use cannabis at all.

Consolidating the results to include only self-reported cannabis consumers, about 64 percent said using marijuana improved their sleep either significantly (35 percent) or slightly (29 percent). By contrast, 21 percent of cannabis users said it had no impact, while a total of 16 percent said it worsened sleep.

The survey further found that respondents between the ages of 25 and 44 were most likely to find marijuana improved their sleep, and older Americans were generally less likely to report using cannabis in the first place.

Men were more likely than women to say that using marijuana helps them sleep better.

“While many states now allow the recreational and medical use of marijuana, its impact on sleep is multi-faceted,” Kannan Ramar, former president of AASM, said in a press release. He added that cannabis can be linked to “daytime sleepiness” and conditions such as sleep disruption.

For example, using medical marijuana appears to help people reduce the use of medications, including sleeping aids, according to a recent study involving more than 3,500 patients. They also experience far fewer negative side effects after switching to cannabis from prescription drugs.

That’s great but research says it disrupts REM sleep which is essential for feeling rested and being clear headed the next day. This is why potheads don’t have dreams. It’s very bad for you to never get REM. I mentioned this to my pothead neighbor when he said he never dreams and he got defensive and said he HAS to smoke weed because his grandma died and he has high stress. But it’s not addictive. He just needs to smoke smelly ass skunk every single day and it’s all he talks about and he spends half of his money on it and gets mad when you lightly criticize it.
And on top of all that,

I mean...it depends. I only take 2-3 5mg gummies per week to keep my tolerance low and sometimes it gives me the craziest vivid dreams like melatonin on steroids. Had a dream a few days back where I was in a collapsing train station, like the surface had been nuked or something and was going through the tunnels trying to survive as people were trying to kill me for some reason. Woke up exhausted.

>>537228416
Depends. If you've got depression, anxiety, insomnia, pain, etc. that's already making it hard for you to sleep, then of course you're going to at least fall asleep easier if not necessarily feel more rested.

A lot of states have “medical” so there is an incentive to claim that it helps you sleep.
I take half an Indica tablet before bed but that’s purely because I’ve been such a pothead for so long that it’s difficult for me to go 12 hours without a decent burn.

This is one of the most interesting uses of weed I've seen. For some, the lack of dreams(i.e REM sleep) is bad, but for others the lack of dreams is in fact a good thing.

Your are habituated. You may not be addicted, but your brain is too used to the effects. You should probably take a break and give your endocannabinoid receptors time to re-polarize.

What I learned from everyone in real research is that economics controls everything. You can research for some conglomerate for years, find the cure for blindness and they will steal all of your hard work, patent it for themselves and vault it.

America is EXACTLY like "The Institute" or "Brotherhood of Steal" from Fallout. Every organization exists soully for itself and the people at the helm. People could have a Jetsons future in the year 2000 but we are jealous concieted Apes and so we instead give everything the run around so we can draw it out any make more money.

>>537227927
the studied dose that protects the brain is thousands of times smaller than the average small recreational dose. Perhaps overclocking your cannabinoid receptors has unintended long term side effects and you are better off without it.

You can't even dream when using weed heavily. It's why I only smoke on weekends when I'm drinking so much that I wouldn't remember dreams anyway. My dreams are cool as fuck and I get lucid pretty frequently too.

Hijacking this thread:
Daily pot smokers, are your dreams returning?

Usually I have to quit to dream, but the past couple of months, and especially recently, I have been having vivid dreams. This never happens when I smoke regularly, but I’ve heard the same from other pot smokers.
>>
>>537229626
>does chronically using weed and then quitting enhance dreaming
I used to smoke every day. Then when I had to quit for a while to pass a new job drug test, I had insomnia and crazy vivid dreams the first week or so after stopping cold turkey.
>>
>>537229353
I know. I can stop it whenever at this point and I don't have issues its just why would I? The only reason is to save money. At this point I can simply do my job, crawl into my cot and pass out. It already takes me hours to relax and I just got my spine and ribs sorted out. My body has been kinda fucked up since infancy and I require abnormal stimulation to be normal again. Very brutal childhood. Tougher than most but multiple broken bones, deep scars and nerve damage hurt so honestly this is no worse than the other dudes that I know that drink constantly. I did slow it down recently, much less pain and stress than the last 15 years.
>>
Pretty sure you get less deep REM sleep on weed? Is that not bad or am I retarded?
>>
>>537229675
Easy for you to say. Did your dad spike you into the floor when you were a baby? Did you used to bash your skull into door jams or your brother for fun? I think not. Did you earn rock hard abs that can lift over 250 pounds just through laughter alone? Doubtful you have such jovial mirth.

7 or 8 days clean off pot after 22 years of near daily use. All done with it. Any positive is just pothead cope. There is no redeeming qualities of it other than maybe pain relief if you’re a cancer patient and dont want to get fucked up off morphine. Thankfully it didn’t ruin my life and otherwise I’m doing great. Who knows what my true potential COULD have been, oh well. We live for today and tomorrow and worry not of the past.

Dude man I'm not addicted, weed is good for you actually. It like helps me sleep and stuff. (Weed is for niggers)

You are correct, but REM is not the healing cycle so I don't care. Nor is it the deep lucid dreaming cycle. So I don't care.

If you want dreams take extremely low doses of both seroquel and mirtazapine with normal dose melatonin. If you want lucid dreams use the bell trick. Get a lucid dream app with the bell that goes off randomly throughout the day whenever you hear the bell stop and tell yourself you are in a dream. Use the same app to set it off while asleep. You will be lucid dreaming in about a week.

Warning. If you 'dont dream' that just means you cannot remember your dreams. This lack of memory can be caused by trauma such as vivid nightmares that your brain has learned to forget as you wake up. The dreams on this stack will be extremely intense and you wont be able to wake yourself up without practice. Dont get one shot into a night terror.

Wow, some kikes set up a lab. It's still not legal to make your own alcohol, grow your own tobacco, make your own pharmaceutical drugs, etc. However it is completely legal to grow your own weed in most states.
>>
>>537230290
If you are genuinely afraid to sleep use clonidine. It is specifically used for veterans with night terrors from PTSD and is considered a wonder drug despite it just being a random heart medication. Technically it isnt even a psychiatric med it's used off brand.

It can disrupt REM sleep but it doesn't outright prevent it. If you figure out how to titrate and regulate the up/down nature of when/where you use it, you can create a positive feedback loop in your brain that allows you to benefit from the initial REM stimulation, and then cut it off before it begins interrupting it too much.
Sadly it impacts everyone differently which means there's some deeper systemic interaction that prevents easy isolation of a singular or small group of chemicals.
There's real science behind the entourage effect, but just like any other mix of multiple chemical compounds, you have to understand how the ratios impact each other.
We currently don't know how to regulate the ratios.
But you definitely can still get REM sleep on it, but mileage may vary unfortunately due to everything I said above.
I'll be happy when more research is done. Maybe we'll figure out those ratios better.
>>
>>537230145
Bell trick would just get lost. Better to use progressive relaxation and self guided meditation. Go to sleep with more intention and when you can relax and eventually it gets easier. You will fall asleep and know that things are "strange" and from there you can lose yourself in it or keep trying to stay consistent. Eventually you can tell the difference. Its really fun. Had some of the craziest dreams and some of them actually played out or told me the future.

helped with sleep for sure..but gave it up for other reasons. I never dreamed when i was smoking pot..but once I stopped, holy hell there was like 3 months of vivid dreams/nightmares. Worst part about quitting

Its not about fear of sleep, thats other issues, its more that you cannot sleep. You wake up for no reason, your back or knee hurts and the pain keeps you up. You have a torn muscle or ligament that can't be worked on. You live soft.

You played yourself. Quality alcohol and tobacco fuel the white man which is why they can't let us have that. But sure grow as much weed as you want (nigger).

It absolutely changed my entire life. I smoke at night, about an hour before bed.
Never smoked or consumed cannabis before I was 35 years old. Was on every sleeping pill you can name since I was 12 (not all at once; I built up tolerances and moved on to the next one.) By the end I was switching back and forth between temazepam and ambien every 6 months because my tolerance was fucked.
Then I woke up thinking I was dying of a heart attack, and nope, panic attack. So the docs start giving me SSRIs and I'm okay with the idea at first because they weren't killing me, but eventually during the "finding the right meds" phase I had a full on mental breakdown after being on Prozac for a week and tried to move into a lighthouse.
I own a home, by the way. I work a regular office job remotely. I just went fucking nuts on that shit. I wasn't living in a van and trying to upgrade to a lighthouse. I was just losing my shit and I'm autistic about the Montauk Point Lighthouse shut the fuck up.
Anyway it only lasted a day and I of course stopped all the drugs, but I was still getting panic attacks and still couldn't sleep. Then my friend gave me some of the gummies those ancient spics Cheech and Chong make and I unclenched for the first time in my entire fucking life.
I sleep like a baby now and haven't needed a pill or had the urge to move into a lighthouse in two years. Thanks, weed.

Easy to say until someone "chooses" to take hard drugs, get in a car, and kill a family of 4 or something similar.
My point is research can hopefully lead to not "taking shots in the dark" because you're right - it's retarded to do that.

OP is a fag as usual. Weed will make you bald if smoked daily in the long run, and it IS addictive because it provides instant short term dopamine rushes. Whatever the "reason" is a weak willed nigger excuse. If you are addicted to the point where you can't dream when you sleep, them eat some cottage cheese before bed. It's loaded with tryptophan, and when taken with honey it'll knock you all the way out.
T. 12 year chronic daily smoker, now 7 weeks off of it, and my hair is already starting to grow back.
But go ahead and keep finding excuses to be high all the fucking time while blaming your alt right boogeyman for your life being a mediocre routine in retail hell.
I'll smoke again, sure, but probably not for a year or more, and never on a daily basis again.

Do not do government dope. niggers prescribed me government dope and it caused me to be hospitalized with a head injury.

I offered George Bush a hit off of a joint and they broke my back and used project MKUltra as an excuse.

This is a common assumption but it’s not true. Demons are pure malevolence and can’t help but torment you, even if they “got” you.
