At our age, insomnia is a thing. Taking three Tylenol PMs right before I put the APAP on, helps me sleep solidly for the 7 hours I need.
I haven't gone the edible route because I don't want a piece of candy before bed. Ever. I hear they work too.

Maybe try some tincture. No sugar and works the same. No groggy after like the Tylenol PM. IMO.
@SECRET_ASIAN_MAN From what I read here your cannabis consumption is essentially the scene from Animal House with the angel on one shoulder and devil on the other.
@MidnightRider No, the angel won long ago and I am a chronic patient. ;-)
@SECRET_ASIAN_MAN One time, a patient confided in me that she took a Klonopin and drank a martini to avoid being fearful at the doctor’s office; she was in her 70s at least. It just confirmed what I’ve seen my entire life, people are gonna do what they have to do to deal with how lifey life sometimes is. As Dan Rowan said on laugh in, smoke em if you got em.
@SECRET_ASIAN_MAN i've only ever used tylenol PM when i'm in pain and having trouble sleeping. they sell diphenhydramine on its own so that might be preferable to having all that acetaminophen buliding up in your liver. other sleep aids might be an even better option, like melatonin supplements or trazodone.
@dietotaku tried melatonin but great point on the sleep agent. I considered that too.
@SECRET_ASIAN_MAN it’s a struggle. Night time has a life of its own here at 53.
