The main thing it does for me and the woman is: it helps us sleep! That's no trivial thing either; lack of sleep causes all *kinds* of problems. We're both insomniacs who have problems making our brains shut down, but one good bowl, and bam, we sleep like babies. Then the next day, we're happier, less frequently depressed, more energetic, less grouchy, more productive when working. I know they have prescription meds to help one sleep. The woman has tried several types. Most are addictive. Some have side effects. And *none* of them work as well (for us) as a simple bowl of cannabis in the evening.
