Medical marijuana doesn’t always “feel” like a medical treatment or medicine.

Sleep is a complex and essential behavioral state that occupies approximately one-third of the human lifespan. Although it is a universal and biologically necessary process, its clinical significance is often underestimated. Sleep plays a foundational role in physical health, cognitive functioning, emotional regulation, neurobiological restoration, and overall mental wellness. Disruptions in sleep are not merely secondary complaints; they can contribute to, exacerbate, or reflect underlying psychiatric, medical, and behavioral health conditions. For clinicians, understanding sleep as a core determinant of health is essential to comprehensive assessment, diagnosis, treatment planning, and long-term client outcomes.
