Tips for sober sleep? (hexbear.net)

Trying to cut back on the booze for my health but damn I'm realizing I have a hard time getting to bed without something in my system. A few nights I've had to just say fuck it and grab a few Modelo tall boys at the gas station just to shut up my own brain long enough to get to sleep.

Thing is once I do get to sleep I sleep way better but that's after hours of laying in bed trying to let myself drift off.

I've tried weed but I'm one of those people where there's a 50/50 chance weed will actually make it worse.

I never got to the point of shakes. But rhe symptoms I had were still pretty bad. I had elevated heart rate and ravenous hunger. The heart rate was what caused the issues with sleeping. But eventually they got away. Thanks for the kind words and good luck to you too.
