smoking before bed

[higi]

I usually smoke every night about an hour before I go to bed, it helps me sleep better. But this week I had the first night in a long time without smoking before bed and I just couldnt get to sleep. I layed in my bed awake until 2am before I fell asleep. Does anyone else find that they need to smoke in order to fall asleep?

Something I can relate with. I have smoked before bed for many years. It feels like when I am under anesteshia. One minute I am awake,then I'm not,then I wake up. The only thing I have noticed tho is that during that time I don't dream. I can't think of a dreamstate that I can relate to for many years now. For me this isn't something that alarms me because my mind is constantly thinking, and it is very restful to not have to be thinking or having my mind going in so many directions like it does. I am wondering if smoking is what has brought me to this point, not dreaming. Before I would be plagued with nightmares,so this not dreaming is blessed release.

One time after smoking I remember trying to fall asleep,and a paralyzing fear came over me.I could remember how to exhale,but couldn't trust myself to inhale.I had to force myself to inhale.I thought if I fell asleep,I could not be trusted to inhale without my reminding myself to.So I warred within myself to stay awake,and slipping into,I don't know what.

wow man, you should seriously think to stop weed! :(
i smoke a bit before sleeping most of the time but i can still sleep if i dont smoke. thats a bad routine cauz if 1 day u dont have weed, your like insomniac. anyway, slow down on weed highanxieties. some people just dont support the effects of cannabis.

peace

I used to smoke a bowl every night before I went to bed, without I just wouldn't be tired, I wouldn't get to sleep untill 4 or 5 in the morning. Then a while ago I had this incredibly enlightening 'shroom trip, and that night, I packed a bowl, and was about to blaze it when I realized I just didn't really want to smoke. So I went to bed, and fell asleep with no troubles, and haven't had any troubles getting to sleep without it since. Although a couple of nights ago I had friend visiting, and we got pretty high, I was still quite stoned when I went to sleep. I had an experience almost exactly like Highanxieties described, except I wasn't terrified of falling asleep, just nervous about whether or not I would remember to breathe.

not kidding at all. I do this about every week and its fucking cool. Your just sitting there eyes closed and music makes the trip for u in the form of a dream.

Weed does helps me sleep. I smoke about a half hour before bed. I been doin it for a bit so I'm used to it. I find it to be sort of a muscle relaxer for me. With my mind fucked up and muscles relaxed...I fall asleep when I hit the pillow.

don't get into that rythm man!

thats why i dont like to smoke too close to when i go to bed, i'd be hella insomniac without it.

[smokey]

i have 1 jus b4 i put my head down to sleep 1 as soon as i get up n as many as i can in between

[Disco]

Does anyone find it harder to get up in the morning after a smoke the night b4 .
It a visious circle 4 me can,t go to be without it , and can,t get out of bed with it.

I have troubles when I don't but for the most part, it goes away within a night or two without. I'm the type of person that does alot of thinking in bed and it will prevent me from falling asleep. That's why I like a little ganj to clear the thoughts so I can fall asleep.

[maryjanemama]

It depends on how worked up I am...sometimes I'm tired enough to sleep without it. If I smoke before bed, I never remember my dreams.

[BlindFellow]

I also never remember my dreams when i smoke before bed, and I wake up kinda sore. I think the sore part is from not moving while sleeping.

Yeah weed helps me sleep but at the wrong time. Like i will fall asleep at about 4 in the afternoon and wake up at 10 at night and have nothin to do.

One time i was ripped tryin to sleep and would fall asleep for a secong and then would have a dream that i died becuase i had the blankets over my head and envisioned that a doctor pronounced me dead and pulled the blanket over my head so i woke up real fast. It happened in like 6 different ways. So i stayed up for about 30 min and ate some pop tarts and drank some water. Then sleep was nice. But dont worry about not breathing if you are just doing weed. Even if you pass out your body is alive enough to keep the breathing and brain functions going.

[joker121]

i know many people with the sleep problem man. That is why you should be careful how much you do, and when you do it. Just try to practice doing less pot in general, and try working out or something, so that you are physically tired when you hit the sack(and NO i don't mean masturbation, but that does help me to go to sleep)

[hydro420]

yes i have to be high or drunk in order to fall asleep. my brother thinks its a waste of green but he jsut doesn't understand.
