Medical marijuana can help with sleep problems like insomnia. Symptoms like daytime sleepiness, lack of concentration and difficulty sleeping are common problems people experience with insomnia. Nonrestorative sleep can impact your daily functioning and quality of life.
Many studies show effectiveness when it comes to improving sleep with marijuana. Anecdotal evidence from individual users often shows good results when using marijuana to improve sleep.
Medical cannabis can be a very efficient alternative treatment option for patients who suffer greatly from insomnia. Many patients report that, when compared to conventional sleep medications, cannabis works far better, is not habit-forming and leaves them feeling extremely well the next day.
In cases where medical marijuana can treat the underlying cause of insomnia, it will treat the insomnia itself in turn.
Some research suggests that medical marijuana can even boost the quality of a person’s sleep and reduce the frequency of nightmares in people with stress-related sleep problems.
