Been through this before, so I know it gets better eventually, but what do you folks generally do to optimize beddy-bye time? To the insomniacs, what are some things you do in the wee hours/early morning for a relaxing start to your day?

This morning’s choice is checking out the music of Casiopea - saw them mentioned in a meme here recently, then later on saw one of my favourite gig spaces has a great local fusion jazz band doing a show covering them at the end of the month. Very chill, feels like menu music of a mid-90s Japanese 3D game in a very good way, lol. Funny how these things happen sometimes, kinda like seeing the car model you just bought everywhere on the road shortly after purchase.

    I don’t really have any tips but last night was my first nights sleep for this break and it wasn’t great, so just commenting for solidarity! XD

      💪You got this! Dunno what your experience with cannabis and breaks in general is, but it does taper off, and when it does whoo boy, sleep quality sky rockets (though I can only speak for myself, YMMV).

      Sometimes after only a couple days (that was awesome, but I was smoking pretty mild stuff up to it), sometimes after a couple weeks (my first serious one many years back, with this one looking similar :( Stupid hash era)

        Cheers man and this is definitely not my first rodeo. I smoked everyday for around 10 years before before having a break and yeh that took a few weeks before I got back to some kind of normality.

        This time I’ve just smoked everyday for about a month so this one will taper of super quickly for me. I just hate that these days my tolerance sky rockets at the same speed when I do go back to smoking xD

        Either way I’m looking forward to the hectic dreams in the next week or more but quality wise I find it isn’t a lot different between being high and not, the only difference is without smoking I dont jump out of bed quite as quickly to have my first smoke.

        Have a good day man!
