Yup, deffo better than sleeping pills, which in my experiance make you wake up feeling like shit, or don't work at all (or both).
Although there are other tablets than 'sleeping pills' that can knock you out, for example, amyletriptaline. I'm not a doc, so donno, but they work for me. Sure, you could say I'm taking them on the same reasons as you smoking weed, but the pills are given to me by specialists and GPs, rather mates and dodggy types. I know the caliber of person doesn't change the effect of the drug, but it does make me feel better that it's less of a bad-news thing.

Whatever I say won't change the way you or monty thinks, and to be honest, you both know how it effects you more than I do. But the impression that I get from Monty is that he is not content with his life, and much like a alcholic or binge-alcholic, is using a drug to escape the issue. Truth be told, I know fuck all except the few things he posts on here, and in my uninformed opinion (which doesn't always equate to being a 'wrong' opnion), it is, at least, a partial cause of his problems..... even on best-case sinario, it gives his ex extra ammo against him.

I've tried some herbal stuff in the past, valerian and things
which worked ok, but the trouble I have is that my mind races, even when I'm not stressed or worried about things, and weed relaxes me just enough to let me get to sleep.

I know what you mean about it feeling like less of a bad news thing coming from a specialist.

I certainly wouldn't say your opinion is wrong, and given that I've had little experience with the sort of people and things you describe you may well be more on the money than I am.

I've found very few herbal things that touch the sides as far as "real" drugs go.
Valerian, not a thing.
Guarana, not a thing.

I've had some mixed results from valerian
the liquid extract works best in my experience.

I don't tend to go in for stimulants like guarana
