Is Your Cannabis Making You Too Sleepy? Here Are Some Things To Try

Business Blog

If you've recently started to recreationally use cannabis and enjoy visiting your local dispensary to check out different accessories and get a feel for the cannabis culture, it's important to always be aware of how you feel after you use it. People turn to cannabis for a variety of reasons, and while some people appreciate how it can make them sleepy, this isn't a feeling that everyone wants. For example, if you enjoy using cannabis to reduce some feelings of anxiety, but don't want to be sleepy afterward, there are some simple things that you can try.

Experiment With Different Strains

Different strains of cannabis cause you to react in different ways. If you're noticing some fatigue after using cannabis, share this reaction with the salesperson at your local recreational marijuana dispensary and ask about a different strain. He or she will be able to give you a recommendation of one or more strains to try that will still help you in your desired way — feeling relaxed, for example — but that won't create such profound feelings of sleepiness. Cannabis dispensaries are so organized that you can simply state how you want to feel after using a cannabis product, and the salesperson can give you a list of different strains to try.

Lower Your Dosage

Check the amount of THC that is present in the cannabis you're using, and then compare this number against other similar products on the dispensary's website. It's entirely possible that you've been using a product with a higher amount of THC in it, and this may be a contributing factor to your sleepiness. In such a scenario, the solution is simple — choose a cannabis product that has a lower dose. Many people experience a significant reduction in their feelings of fatigue from switching to low-dose cannabis.

Use Less Of It

Another option that you can try is to simply use less of the cannabis that you've been using. For example, if you conventionally roll your joints to be a certain size, reduce the size of the joint. You may even want to use a digital scale to accurately assess this change. This way, you'll still get the experience of smoking the entire joint, but you won't be taking as much cannabis into your system. For some people, this option can be easier than switching from one strain to another. It can be enjoyable to essentially take a trial-and-error approach to finding the right amount of cannabis for you.
