Insomnia, depression, anxiety

I'm so sorry to hear that you didn't sleep. What you're going through is a lot for one person to handle.
I forgot to mention that I also take 0.5 mg of Xanax each night. My anxiety is at an all-time high and at the end of the day, my mind is racing and the Xanax combined with my other sleep medication really helps. I take it during the day sometimes, but only as needed.

To answer your question about the gummies, I started taking 1 x 750 mg at night, and then increased it to 2 each night. When I first took them (they're "Above" by Sunmed / delta-8 thc: max strength gummies) I found that I would "snack" a bit before bed, but that stopped after a week or so. I live in SC, where marijuana manufactured in any form is illegal, which is why I have taken Above.

I assume you live in a state where cannabis/marijuana is legal, because you mentioned taking the Indica gummy to sleep. I often travel to Boston to visit family, where recreational cannabis/marijuana is legal, and I've used those types of sleep gummies while there. The BEST one by far is Zonked! Almost immediately upon taking (along with Trazodone and Xanax), I was instantly tired and would go straight to bed and sleep through the night. It was unbelievable. I didn't feel groggy at all upon waking. I started by taking 1 x 100 mg at night (with my other sleep meds), and eventually wound up taking 2 x 100mg WITHOUT my other meds and had the same sleep experience!

I stopped taking the Zonked quite some time ago while in Boston because I'm on Worker's Comp Disability, and I often have bloodwork done at my Pain Management doctor's office. If there are traces of any medications in my system that are not prescribed by my WC doctors, or traces of illegal drugs of any sort, the state would would immediately close my disability case.

I hope this information helps 🙂

Hi.
Unfortunately it is not legal in Florida but a friend got it for me . I asked my doctor if I could try it instead of the sleeping pill and she said yes . Unfortunately Xanax does not make me tired at all . It calms me down but that’s it . Someone told me to try two tonight , that would be 10mg . Last night I took 200 mg of Trazodone and then one hour later took the gummy for the first time . Thank you so much for all of your information. I greatly appreciate it . I am a zombie today full of anxiety. I wish I had that brand that you said worked well .

@amicocercae that is a lot of dailys

What is D3 with K2?

@tmoff it supposedly makes the Vit D absorb better. It worked because I do not take it anymore and my levels are staying good. I think I got it at Walgreens. Good luck to you.

Thank you!

I am 85 and need sleep medication!

@sophia53 @tmoff VitaminD3 + K2 also is available at Costco, although in a different brand, i.e., Webber Naturals.

@kalevi
Ask your physician about Trazadone for sleep.

I easily can identify with the issue of insomnia and anxiety along with long-standing depression. I have tried everything available known to humankind, both rX and OTC. My psychiatrist (finally one who is open-minded) is progressive and forward-thinking. If one med does not work after 6 weeks, she changes it up and we try something else; I feel heard and validated. At present, I am on a cocktail of meds, but I trust her judgement. I discovered that many, many doctors in NY take a staunch stance against sleep meds. It’s a fierce battle out here.
