I’m looking at this at 4:31 AM. 🥲
Telling from my own experience, looking at your phone is not going to be helpful.
My advice would be to do something entertaining, but tiring. Like solving a sudoku if that floats your boat. Or reading. At least that’s what sometimes does the trick for me.
This is me yesterday… And other days… And then I can’t fall asleep because I am too worried that I should be asleep already and that I have to wake up early. This causes my absolute favourite feedback loop.
Sometimes I just love being a human being :')
Weed: I got ya bro.
Weed: I got ya bro. (for now)
Spoiler alert: I starts to not work anymore after you reach a tolerance level.
Context: I smoke premium 24/7 so don’t really take my super stoner word for it. *Reading Rainbow sounds
Just my 2 cents. People get too high, man. In terms of caffeine, if you progressively drink more and stronger coffee, eventually you’re just throwing back cup after cup to get nowhere or worse. But if you limit yourself to just one cup, at one time of day, wether or not you “want” more, or you “need” more, that one cup and the ritual of it, stays effective. I smoke basically every single day, and stay an absolute lightweight. Because I smoke at the same time everyday, and the weed I smoke is pretty mild. It’s like some Pavlov shit. The ritual becomes almost more important than the chemicals. So rather than chasing these peaks and valleys of tolerance, from abstinence to obliteration, I just stay on an easy rolling sea.
If everyone drank booze and coffee like people smoke weed, they’d be guzzling not but espresso and boilermakers all day. I say have some tea, a light lager, and some 10% (or less) weed. Everything doesn’t have to always be dab rigs and everclear.
Just need to smoke more, or switch to edibles.
But if it becomes an issue, do a small T break. Use some melatonin for even 2 or 3 nights. Do that every couple of months and it’ll hit like new after. Ideally you would want a full week every 6ish months to bring the tolerance down.
Everyone is different though.
Agreed to disagree. I’ve been a daily smoker for over a decade and it still is the best way for me to get a good nights sleep.
A joint before bed means I sleep well.
Would this work? And how does weed go together with Vyvanse? I’m hesitant…
If you are talking about toxicity, there are no known drug interactions between THC and Vyvanse. Key words being “none known.” I.e that doesn’t mean that there aren’t, we just don’t know of any. That said, given their mechanism of action (Vyvance is a stimulant/dopamine norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor and THC acts on the anandamide receptors), I would not expect them to interact in a way that would result in toxicity/physical harm to you if you did pot while on Vyvanse but the effectiveness of Vyvance may be compromised.
Mine tells me to go to sleep to early and then wake up at 5am
I hate it
I try to go to sleep, lay there with nothing but brain noise to distract me and come up with ideas I am compelled to do something with right when I get them. And the worst part is that I can do something with them. I can’t just lie to myself and say I cant because all the tools I need to do something with them (eg. Computer, notepad etc.) are right there and easily accessible. So I end up spending an hour or more working on something instead of sleeping and only manage to sleep when I am too physically exhausted to remain awake. Rinse repeat forever.
This is why i listen to audiobooks or radio plays to fall asleep to.
They are engaging enough to stop the noise but i can still fall asleep listening.
Works good for me, atleast most of the time*.
*Damn you Will Patton for reading Stephen King novells in such a gripping way, you are banned from bedtime listening!
+1 to this. I started out trying to visualize things and play music in my head, but actually listening to something as I go to sleep is so much better.
It’s like it occupies my attention on something external, rather than letting my attention latch on to random internal things. Then I can fall asleep and not even notice. It also helps if it’s something familiar and not novel.
This is an odd one. I know I used to have trouble sleeping as a kid but have completely grown out of that. Nowadays I harness the power of my brain being half shut down already to fall asleep quite easily. Considering that it’s 4:23 a.m. here, the same is obviously not true for me staying asleep. But that’s okay. I will just go for another round in a minute. Good night everyone!

My trick is melatonin and PBS YouTube videos, audio only. Ones I’ve seen before.
The audio is enough to keep my mind from running on it’s own and eventually the melatonin kicks in to take it down while it’s distracted by dinosaurs or whatever.
Melatonin on it’s own will just make me suffer being tired but not able to rest my mind enough to fall asleep.
Listening to something interesting like an audiobook will do the same.
It needs to be something that will catch my attention but also not be something I really want to hear more of.
Music doesn’t keep my mind from wandering like speech does.
Futurama sleepers works similarly for the first part.
