Can't sleep...
Every night, I can only sleep after the sun rises. I think I'm suffering from delayed sleep phase syndrome.

Just what I used to do till a couple of days back. Now I forcefully put myself to sleep by 2am, listening to music and get up by 8 am forcefully using an alarm clock. Looks like its working, as I do feel sleepy at 2am nowadays.

Its true. Maintaining good sleep habits is the best way to handle insomnia. Reduce caffeine intake and don't get into bed until you are really sleepy. Another option count sheep :)

"Cannabis has been successfully used as a sleeping aid to combat DSPS. Sleep onset is affected by the two primary cannabinoids, Δ9-Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) dramatically increases melatonin production[16] and Cannabidiol (CBD) has been shown to be effective in helping insomniacs sleep[17]. Heavy cannabis use can lead to decreased levels of REM sleep and increased levels of slow-wave sleep along with reduced mental function the next morning however this is heavily dependent on dose, 5mg doses of THC and CBD have been shown not to have these effects[18]. Anecdotal evidence suggests that the Indica strain is particularly effective. "

What's the problem? Treat yourself.
