Understanding all of the unusual kinds of edible cannabis oil & their effects
I started having sleeping complications in high college.
I drank lots of caffeine while I was in the afternoon to stay stimulated for our honors & AP classes, but that would make it harder for myself and others to get to sleep at night.
And whenever I was lacking sleep, I’d consume even more caffeine, thus perpetuating the cycles in a positive feedback loop. You can’t expect to get a healthy night’s sleep if you’re consuming caffeine after 8pm, which is something I couldn’t wrap our head around at the time. Nowadays I’m absolutely careful about when I stop consuming caffeinated drinks throughout the afternoon. I try to stop by 6pm even though it would be better to stop even earlier than this. However, if you use cannabis to the degree that I do, you’ll notice that you get sedated at random times of the afternoon. If you use cannabis edibles that are made out of numerous kinds of cannabis oil, you’ll know that the effects can vary severely if you’re consuming edibles that lean sativa versus edibles that lean indica. If I consume sativa-leaning edibles I’m able to get labor done throughout the afternoon & can lead a productive life. But if I’m trying to sleep at night & had a recognizably stressful afternoon with lots of coffee consumption, I will reach for an indica-leaning cannabis edible to help myself and others get to sleep a lot faster. Usually the indica strains are high in myrcene, caryophyllene, & linalool, all of which are known to be more sedating than other terpenes. Some of our sativa-leaning strains have limonene & terpinolene as their dominant terpenes by contrast.
