What is up! I'm Stephy and I'm new here -- 1st review! I tried VK every night last week (1-gram pre-roll opened up and used in one-hitter), my 1st week of trying to cannabisiously medicate my insomnia (I've also got ADHD, hence the trouble falling and staying asleep). I consumed VK closer to bedtime at the suggestion of a gal at the dispensary, along with some local, delicious 1:1 (balanced THC and CBD for newbies like me!) honey in chamomile tea around 8 p.m. However, for me, VK didn't help me sleep... it was more stimulating. VK is WICKED smooth in and out (no coughing) and pleasant, but it's a bit disheartening when one consumes this to help induce sleep and one's heart rate climbs to >100 beats per minute (tachycardia) between 3 a.m. (after forcing oneself to go to bed at 2:30 a.m. just to see if ZZZs will occur) and 5 a.m., at which point one needs help from a mainstream medication to calm my mind and body down, a med that one might be trying to stop using as it's associated with dementia later in life. Very cool strain (able to function, happy, chill, hungry, great for watching some good comedy on Netflix without couch-slouch and/or couch-lock), but laying in bed wide awake after consuming an indica that helps others sleeps is a stinker. **Respiratory benefits!!** My boyfriend, who I diagnosed with SLEEP APNEA (I'm a nurse practitioner; no worries, I'm a professional) tried VK one night and said he felt that it helped his allergies and chronic sinus congestion -- and I agree! He didn't snore the night he consumed VK! So, maybe it did help me sleep secondary to my apnea-partner-not-snoring! ;) **ADHD** I've heard that folks with ADHD sometimes experience the opposite of the strain (calm with a sativa, stimulation with an indica); VK definitely doesn't help me sleep, but it is fun! My sister and I had some really fabulous laughs watching Sebastian Maniscalco specials the other night. For me, it'll just have to consume VK earlier in the day! <3 :)
