Cannabis for Sleep, Anxiety & Pain
What research suggests about cannabis for three of the most common reasons people try it. Educational only — not medical advice.
About this course
Sleep problems, anxiety, and chronic pain are the three reasons most people consider cannabis. This course summarizes what research currently suggests, where the evidence is solid, and where it’s thinner than the marketing implies.
This course is educational only — not medical advice. If you have a health condition, take prescription medication, or have a personal or family history of mental illness, talk to a licensed clinician before starting cannabis. The lessons in this course will help you ask better questions in that conversation.
Over five lessons you’ll learn:
- What we know — and don’t know — about cannabis and sleep architecture
- The dose-response paradox in cannabis and anxiety
- The evidence base for cannabis in chronic pain
- Practical dosing strategies tailored to each use case
- When cannabis is the wrong tool, and how to find a knowledgeable clinician
