    Going to throw in my edible suggestion because it is the only thing that’s ever worked for me personally: Mr. Moxey’s mints. They make a high CBD one with valerian root. I try to take them an hour or so before bed. Just CBD or just sleepy tea has never worked for me but the combo seems to do the trick.

      Edibles are overpriced and underdosed; instead you should buy pure hash oil from an indica strain (or RSO, or distillate, or whatever concentrate is available in your area) and make your own edibles. It’s way cheaper and you get a much stronger and more effective product.

      Where I live, the average edible product is $15-20 and contains 100mg total of active THC (I looked up those mints and they also contain 100mg total in the entire package). Or could just buy a hash oil syringe for the same price and get 1000mg. Literally 10x the amount for the same price. So if a pack of mints lasts you a week, imagine having a 2½ month’s supply without spending 10x as much. Eventually you’ll get used to just directly consuming the oil, saving you even more time and money since you don’t actually have to make it into an edible to achieve the desired effects.

        What I should do is what works well for me. I know about and have used oil but I prefer the mints for various reasons. I’m glad you have something that works well for you
