    I’d recommend not using it too often for sleep. Weed tends to disrupt REM sleep. Rem is extremely beneficial as it plays a role in memory consolidation, emotional processing, brain development, and dreaming.

      No way! I’ve been using it daily for years, I haven’t had issues with… What were we talking about again?

      But REM sleep gives me night terrors an I wake up screaming and thrashing. I use a glass of whiskey to keep the NT’s away and I realize that isn’t terribly healthy, but it keeps my fiance from being woken up/ bruised

        Could be worse. As a kid I had night terrors and sleepwalked. With no memory of it. So I would go to sleep in one place, and wake up somewhere else, drenched in sweat, loaded with adrenaline, screaming and with no idea where I was or what was happening. Just a straight transition from falling asleep to terrified panic in a different room (or once, my car).
