There is a lot of speculation on the effects of weed
on sleep, however a new study claims smoking weed before sleeping could
potentially make your nightmares disappear.
Last year, Marine veteran Logan Edwards told NBC News marijuana may have saved his life. Edwards, who served in Iraq, suffered from PTSD upon his return from combat.
According
to elitedaily, he faced unremitting nightmares and insomnia, and the
prescription drugs he was given by Veterans Affairs
(VA), benzodiazepines and anti-depressants, weren’t helping.
Marijuana, as Edwards
put it, helped him get his life back by providing immense relief from
his PTSD and the nightmares it caused, and he’s not alone in this trend.
Also, a US Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy recently stated, "for certain medical conditions and symptoms… marijuana can be helpful."
This is does not in anyway endorse weed, because there is no conclusive findings on the issue.
