I feel like I'm in the minority of being able to be at the top of my game during the day, and still having the freedom of lighting a small joint to decompress in the evening.<p>I've always had sleep issues since I was a kid, and I've evolved from sleeping pills with a TV on to just a few tokes, and I'm out like a light; ready to annihilate the following day. Furthermore, I still get up at 6:30am to go to the gym, read a chapter or two of whatever I read in bed the night before and start work with a boost of energy that comes from within.<p>Any career professionals, be it IT or real estate, still utilize weed in some way or another?<p>I'm well aware of the adverse effects on REM sleep due to frequent marijuana use, but I believe the extent of sleep quality degradation varies from person to person.
