Veterans, PTSD, and the Importance of Sleep: For veterans with PTSD, sleep disturbances (insomnia, nightmares, declining sleep quality) are common. Some veterans have turned to cannabis, particularly CBD-higher strains, as a potential aid for sleep quality.

Cites five peer-reviewed studies: Metrik et al. (2016) — sleep improvement as a primary motivator for cannabis use among veterans with PTSD/MDD. Betthauser, Pilz & Vollmer (2015) — veterans using cannabis for PTSD reported reduced insomnia. Vermetten & Wit (2023) — Dutch veterans with higher-CBD strains reported significant sleep benefits. Krediet et al. (2020) — cannabis found beneficial for PTSD symptoms but social stigma remains a barrier. Babson, Sottile & Morabito (2017) — literature review on CBD’s potential for managing insomnia in PTSD.
