" very problematic transitioning from internet (or whatever tail I'm chasing) to bedtime.
Procrastinating this transition as a life style keeps me regularly deprived of sleep. Regular symptoms are stuttering, forgetfulness, ADHD etc you know the drill
Anyways, dosing. In my early twenties I could communicate clearly no matter how stoned I was but after a decade of sleep deprivation, I can't find my words if I'm stoned and my patience is being taxed, which is no good for expensive 30-minute sessions. I can toke no less than 2 hours before or I have difficulties.
On my good days (after a few consecutive days of 6+ hours sleep) ADHD is still an issue, and I can imagine a little sativa would help.
xRUFUSx, you could be my twin, haha! My advice to you is this: get a routine!
I fall into old habits with relative ease, and i find myself procrastinating a lot still. ADHD is a bitch.
Nowadays i decided that ADHD is not really something real, although my experience correlates entirely with ADHD symptoms (i fit the predominantely inattentive subtype. )
I tried the Concerta and my heart was always racing so i quit. Plus i couldn't use cannabis as they said it could interfere with the meds.
Nowadays what i do for my ADHD is: meditation, exercise and good food (plenty of vegetables and omega 3 and good fats. If you're vegetarian, be sure to eat lots of eggs.)
Martial arts are great as well. Music too. Dancing also. Essentially something that keeps you focused and having fun at the same time helps curb the symptoms a lot.
As for the lack of sleep and the pc-bed transition, that is the hardest part. Even as i write this i know i will only sleep 6h because i need to finish some work that i procrastinated from last week. And i just spent 30min writing a long email to a girl friend.
EDIT: make that 3h30 of sleep. iei. procrastination FTW.
My advice about this is: don't stop trying. don't give up. everyday try to actually go to bed early, and find something that will keep you off the laptop in the last half hour before sleep.
Essentially, you need to come up with a set of things that you thoroughly enjoy doing, roughly plan them throughout the week and keep repeating these patterns until they are natural to you.
A bed time routine helps a lot as well. I always do push ups, squats and meditation before sleep. I always do meditation after i wake up (much harder but i do it even for just a minute as that is way better than nothing at all.)
Regarding your herb usage while working, in my current job i couldn't be at my top shape if i was high so i reserve my consumption for after work and/or after dinner during the weeks. I notice the tiredness like you do now, when i didn't before.
After you turn 30, and close to that age, your body starts to process things differently and you can't force it like you did before. And unlike many seem to think, cannabis is not devoid of dangers, especially if you over do it regularly like so many of us do.
