I bought CBD pills.

I wanted to try it because when I come back from soccer or deck hockey I have trouble falling asleep, it's like I have a hard time getting the adrenaline and state of awareness off. I really didnt feel anything, still could'nt fall asleep until pretty late but I had a good night sleep at least.

Will have to do more testing

interesting. what's the dosage? and is it just CBD? I know it has calming effects but I wasn't aware it could be used as a sleep aid.

One study showed that nearly 80% of participants who used CBD to treat their anxiety reported lower anxiety levels within a month. Sleep initially improved in more than 65% percent of participants, followed by fluctuating results.

I'll have to check, took the strongest dosage they have since i'm a big guy, it only had traces of THC

yeah, well for people who are anxious, CBD will help them deal with their anxiety, thus also helping them with their sleep, so this may be an indirect effect. not saying it won't work but in your case you're saying it's because of the post-game adrenaline, which is different.

Yeah I was hoping for a stronger mellowing out effect

it might have a different effect from one person to another, but I've taken pretty strong doses of CBD during the day and I've never really felt drowsy because of it or anything.

for periods when I feel more anxious or more under stress... have you tried melatonin? the few times I've tried it as a sleep aid it didn't do much for me but I've heard a lot of people say it worked wonders for them.

I have, no luck either. I don't have an everyday sleep problem and don't really have anxiety problems it's really when I comeback from sports, I'm still hyped until 1am and as a result i'm dead tired at work the next day.

Try the 10mg ones Pat. You can get different doses, so maybe you just need a higher dose.

Nothing seems to work for me either, but the 10mg ones did 👍🏻

I used to have a hot tub after late night hockey games and that speeds up relaxation prior to bed. Do you have a hot tub?

THC would probably do the trick, but in that case it would have to be an indica strain and smoked (could be flavored cartridges), because edibles take too long to take effect, and might cause you even more problems to sleep lol.

if not there are surely other natural options out there I'm not aware of, you'd have to ask around.

not to contradict you but a hot bath actually increases blood flow and may cause more trouble sleeping than anything...

My understanding is that all roads lead to a Dubois trade. I believe that the process of trade exploration has begun and that there is optimism that a trade will be consummated before the end of the draft on June 28 and 29 in Nashville.
According to The Athletic’s report, Dubois will give the Jets a list of teams with which he’d be willing to sign a long-term extension.

Pat Brisson, Dubois’ agent, will work with those teams to negotiate contract terms, and Kevin Cheveldayoff will do his best to work within these player-driven market parameters to maximize Winnipeg’s return.

I have a hunch that Los Angeles is the front-runner and New York is the most viable option of the wild cards. New York is a big, exciting market close to Dubois’ hometown and the Rangers should have an easier time managing Dubois’ cap hit than most prospective buyers.

I believe that Winnipeg has kicked tires on 21-year-old offensive defenceman Braden Schneider before and I could see a package built around Schneider and Chytil having appeal.

Boston, Tampa, Dallas in on PLD as well per Marek but Habs still a strong possibility.

Yeah don't want to go the THC route, I'm scared of psychotropes because I know somewhere inside I'm a schizo

seriously though if you feel that way then yeah, staying away from THC sounds safer.
