    I found one ZEBRA CBD gummie and one tablet of melatonin make my sleep much more restful as I sleep. I wake up feeling I have slept not soundly but peacefully.

    What mg melatonin did you take? We have a melatonin thread around here somewhere where folks have shared their varied experiences. Some take as much as 10mg, while I have to cut a 1mg tablet in half or I'm groggy all the next morning.

    Regarding cbd: on impulse I bought a bottle, but I've not tried it yet, for various reasons.

    @Steven Stanick: Your mix of CBD and melatonin sounds intriguing – restful sleep is such a gift!

    @John Brunner: I’m curious too – what’s held you back from trying CBD? I’ve heard so many mixed reviews about its effects; it’d be interesting to hear your take!

    I wasn't sure I wanted to have a drug in my system I have no real need for, that I'd have to document on my medical records, or that might present an issue and it's not documented on my records (although the only thing I take is a statin.) Daggone "impulse" and "internet peer pressure" were the only reasons I bought it. I'll have to see if it's got an expiry date.

    Since nothing has worked over a lifetime of sleeping problems I saw the ad claiming only relaxation, not sleep so I thought it could help. I notice my bed covers are not disturbed as they usually are meaning I am not tossing and turning in my sleep.

    My melatonin are 10mg if I'm not mistaken, I believe I saw bottles for 20 and 50mg. As for the CBD the cannabis amount id 25mg.

    We use CBD Sleep Gummies and CBD Gummies for arthritis pain. Neither is a drug and the VA Medical has both listed in my medical records. IOW, a "drug" needs a prescription from a doctor and any CBD product does not.

    Both type of Gummies work for us, so we keep on buying both. We will either take a whole one or cut it in half.

    I still use the THC gummies with melatonin. 1/8th of a cube is more than enough for me. I am still not using every night though,as I do not want to be dependent upon them all the time.
    It is legal in all but 6 states. :cool: Cheap compared to all that other whoha stuff.
