I have tried CBD oil to help with sleep - it did nothing for me. I tried MJ in my 20s but it made me unable to function for 3 days and I never had 3 days to kill, so I didn't use it. Now in my 70's I worry about my most precious possession, my memory, and I don't want to risk losing that. It's legal in OR, so no issue there. I've had friends who have used MJ for serious pain and it was great and much better than narcotics with no serious side effects. My daughter had IBS and used it to help her sleep through the pain. I don't know anyone who has used it for itching though.
