Anyone have experience with capsules as a sleep aid?

Have been dealing with severe back issues for 3 months now and I need something to help me relax and ease the pain. And the oxy perscription is not going to get used on my watch.

I don't mind to smoke but at this point would love to take something to help me relax and get some rest.

So I dont think weed will help much with your pain - directly

but going through serious back troubles for a long time it definitely helped me cope in the worst times. Weed as a painkiller is more about distracting you from pain and not feeling so sorry for yourself, like you can have fun while living with a fucked up back kind of thing.

When I had acute sciatica in its worst moments in my 2010 relapse I had a percocet type thing - i rationed them once a week and always looked forward to that one night I could sleep for 7 or 8 hours instead of 4 hour shifts.

In between naproxen helped a bit but wouldn't really, on its own, be enough to crush nerve pain and make it go away. But if you are experience nerve related back issues and inflammation, it can take the edge off and might help you sleep a bit better.

That's aleve off the shelf.

If you do the NSAIDs like naproxen and ibuprofen often and for a long time it can take a toll on your stomach lining. But if you are in the middle of some serious shit now its ok to take it every day for 6-12 months.

I just was using them a few times a week for years and had to back off with some stomach irritation. GI scope and all was well down there but all my big discomfort in the stomach discontinued when I stopped taking them.

Then all I had was my regular tools: exercises, constant stretching, walking, hot showers and hot baths, lying on ice packs. And keeping all that up means I can sleep 6-7 hours but usually i'm tightening up and need to wake up and stretch after 7 hours.

A lot of nights even still i may have a bit of a time finding a good position.

I find my right side is off limits now, just makes things worse - so its on my back or left side.


Make sure your bed is top notch - get sympathy money from relatives if you need to - a good bed is essential!

A quality edible is a good place to start for relaxation and sleep. If you have chronic pain related to inflammation, etc. - CBD oil might be the way to go. It's about $60g and a bit harder to come by (Feds are talking bout making it sched A, of course) but super lovely for your inside parts. :)

Nice after a bad time with Sour Romulan (doesn't vape well, straight Romulan didn't either for us but fine for people still burning)

Been loving a trio of White Widow, Businessman and Blue Mataro

All vape well, all taste DELICIOUS

What are your opinions on the PM's new hard on drivers stance when it comes to MJ. Since it will stay in your system for a number of days. How exactly is this going to work. How long does a person have to wait after smoking a J before they can drive. Couple of days?

Indeed!

SO looking forward to it.

In other weed news, came back from the 'rents place with a jar of homegrown from a family friend who lives a ways out from Ottawa - good stuff!

Happy little bonus to the weekend

Jody and Marc Emery are fucking idiots. They wanted weed to be legal and now its going to be and all they do is complain because its not the free for all they want.

First the conservative government extradited Marc for selling seeds to the US.
Extradition order issued for pot activist Emery

Once out of jail and the liberal government announced they would legalize weed jody thought she was going to be the liberal candidate. She got shut down.
Pot activist Jodie Emery turned down by federal Liberals

Vice decided to hold a "townhall" with the prime minister regarding weed. There is a segment where Vice interviews a guy who is clearly connected to organized crime and yet Jody Emery fails to recognize this...


Furthermore, no apologies forth coming.

How about we look at some results from some tests of weed being sold. Oops looks like Jody and Marc's bud isn't fit for consumption.

Globe Investigation: What’s in your weed? We tested dispensary marijuana to find out


Its sort of hard to feel sorry for people who are breaking the law, while others meet strict guidelines.

Legal cannabis lobbyist opposes illegal dispensaries

Aurora is a publicly trade company anybody can purchase shares. If Jody and Marc Emery are too stupid to figure this out well then...

Oh I am sure that Marc and Jody are doing this for completely selfless reasons.

Their stores are shut down, not cause they are selling shit weed but because they refuse to play by the rules. Many other clinics operated and continue to operate because they respect city ordinances like maintaining a certain distance from schools.

Lets face it. If you have 65kg of weed and $250 000 its a pretty good chance that there is a connection to organized crime somewhere along the line.

Police claim Cannabis Culture dispensaries possibly tied to organized crime


Oh yeah so now Jody and Marc are out for vengeance. They are going to support the Conservative party...

Tory Leadership Hopeful Welcomes Support From 'Prince Of Pot'


Maxime Bernier didn't make it. Maybe Andrew Scheer will help them out?

Who is Andrew Scheer?

Legalizing or decriminalizing marijuana: “As a parent of four, soon to be five, I oppose plans to make it easier to sell or produce drugs.”

.... and today on the 2nd reading of the bill to legalize marijuana the conservatives are arguing against it.

Fucking idiots.
