Is it normal that i can't sleep unless i smoke weed?

I just stopped smoking weed like 3 weeks ago after smoking every day for 10 years (mostly due to financial reasons). I find that reading a book in bed or listening to a podcast helps me wind down. After the first 3-4 days it's pretty easy to sleep without it.

Medical marijuana is a thing for a reason. Insomnia is one of the symptoms it alleviates so I would say it's normal. Please consult a doctor or advanced practice provider to make sure nothing serious is going on and/or rule out sleep disorders.

check ure not hooked on the tobacco in the joint if u mix it. i was hooked for years and realised i got addixcted to the tobacco so needed it to sleep

Stop smoking weed & practice clean sleeping. No electronics near the bed, no lights on, no drugs, no pills. I smoke regularly and when I take a tolerance break I notice a huge decline in my ability to fall asleep. It's because your brain isn't producing enough melatonin & shit on its own and it doesn't know to produce it without the weed. Listen I know it sounds like a huge fucking deal but just put down the bong for a couple weeks and you'll feel SO much better. Don't let weed rule your life.

I'm sorry you're stuck in this rut. It's definitely time to get help if you're dependent on drugs to function normally. Could you replace it with just CBD for the meantime? Fugazi had a good idea about reading a book, distractions work. I have a lamp that has glitter that flies about, and there's a light. I can watch the sparkles and flushing changes of colours until I sleep to stay distracted. Stuff like that could help you calm yourself before bed.

No.

That's horrible. My old coworker became dependent on alchol to sleep like 1 week after he turned 21

I was like this for about 5 years, could only sleep if I was high on weed. I miss them old days of falling asleep under the air conditioner stoned. Had to stop smoking weed because it was changing an not the same, dealers were trying to make weed stronger and stronger and wanted to be known for selling the most potent shit, when they should have just left it alone or put more time into quality rather then THC strength. All them chemicals used to grow the plant gets absorbed into the buds and leaves, you smoke it and absorb it into your lungs, Horrible!

I'd have a talk to a good dietician and a good Dr's about your situation. You should be able to fall asleep normally without use of drugs.

Totally normal for some.
