Marijuana ingestion has minimal sleep disruption with slightly reduced REM sleep acutely, however chronic intake causes long-term slow wave sleep suppression.

Alcohol -Acute ingestion of alcohol even in low doses causes changes in sleep. When blood alcohol levels < 10 mg/dl â?? increased total sleep time and reduced awake activity.

good info dude

but thats says "Marijuana reduces REM sleep slightly in the short term, therefore reduces sleep disruption" if it reduces the amount of time you are in REM, it is disrupting your sleep....not reducing sleep disruption. know what i mean?? And if your REM period is disturbed every night then that could cause problems.

But yeah, i got into the habit of smoking before I go to sleep every single night, Im going to stop this before it becomes a problem....to be honest i thought it was helping me sleep....but i do feel tired every morning....
