@ess77 I have also tried taking Indica in gummy form which I cut into 1/4 which is a type of medical marijuana along with small dose of Melatonin 1 - 3 mgs which seems to help. I did have tv in my room but with timer setting and found a low volume worked for me...something about the voices since I live alone.

Hi, marjou. Sorry for the delay in getting back with you.

I can't tell you how much the 1:1 combination helps me in so many ways. I think especially w/pain which helps w/anxiety which helps with everything leading to peaceful sleep. I also take 1 Melatonin capsule. Began taking 3 every night, but now only need one used with the THC:CBD.

I also just purchased a couple of gifts just for me! A weighted quilt/coverlet. Weighs 15 pounds, weighted w/tiny glass beads sewn into the quilt. I hugs me. Amazing how that settles down my anxiety and helps relieve pain. It's quite warm, so I have to be careful not to have other covers on the bed and an occasional overhead fan...live in Florida....but I do love the weighted feeling. Amazing how it helps.

I just bought a side sleeper pillow from Apria, the co I use for my c-pap supplies. It will hopefully help my cervial vertebrae that hust lots, neck/headache from not getting comfy w/head and pillow. It's shaped like a 'V', so gives the back support as well as the side and head. Can also be used on your back with head in the center and the sides for support. I need that so can't wait for it to get here today.

I use a favorite body spray and spray the room or the bed for aroma therapy. I must have some background noise. Always. I have tinnitus and at night it's usually pretty loud, so I need something to distract my brain from the racket in my ear. That's one reason I enjoy the TV, but marjuana, I don't watch long before snuggling up and turning it off.....

Hope some of this helps.
Blessings, Elizabeth
