Skip THC as a sleep aid, especially at night, because it may help you fall asleep faster but tends to suppress REM sleep and disrupt normal sleep architecture. Regular use can build tolerance, and stopping can trigger REM rebound with vivid dreams plus withdrawal-related insomnia.

Alcohol and THC are both very potent ways that will remove or obliterate your REM sleep. And we spoke about this in the episode on THC when we discussed this.
