Weed helps most people fall asleep but it does cause a change in rem sleep and can cause sleep to be less refreshing.

Personally I'm on the hunt for some cbd vape juice. I've given up smoking (tobacco and weed) and I'm hoping if nothing else I'll have a placebo effect that might help me fall asleep.

If you try using weed, you'll want low THC, high cbd strains.

If a sativa is like a strong cup of coffee, an indica is like a sleeping pill

Satvia strains are for people wanting an uplifting creative buzz, indica is a more mellow relaxing experience.

Neither will really help you feel more refreshed in & of themselves. Although you may find that the pain reducing elements could make you feel that way.

I'd be careful experimenting with weed while time is of the essence. You might find yourself feeling groggy and washed out, so be sure to take it steady and not over rely on it. Also worth mentioning that weed can and does cause some people feelings of paranoia, or cause them to fixate on their pain. While others will say that it makes their pain reduce and make them feel relaxed and have a sense of well-being.
