I happen to be a big supporter of marijuana, and it's helped me in quite a few ways.
I suffer from infrequent (had 5 since 2005) but pretty dern' terrible tonic-clonic seizures. They've almost all been triggered by exhaustion and dehydration- most of them during out of town trips. I also have mild~ish insomnia that makes it very hard to get the required amount of sleep in order to keep my body running healthy and, ultimately, to keep me seizure-free. Marijuana has been a life saver as far as sleep goes. It knocks me right out, much better than any sleep aid I've tried. It also helps tremendously with the after-effects of seizures. It alleviates the bodily aches and pains and pretty much eliminates the nausea I get the day after.
Cannabis is actually not the harmful 'drug' that everyone seems to think it is. It replenishes your body with healthy cannabinoids which your body uses to maintain homeostasis. Anyone looking for more info should check out some articles on the body's endocannabinoid system. It's pretty fascinating stuff.
Anywho, cannabis has been very beneficial to me. In addition to helping me get the sleep I need, it's helped relieve me of a lot of stress and anxiety, both of which can add to exhaustion as well. To each his own, I 'spose, but I certainly am a big believer in marijuana.
