"If I smoke I get tremendous relief from my enormous stress and constant anxiety. It makes me very tired however. Is there a way to ingest marijuana without getting tired? "
It may be that the variety you use is high in THC, myrcene, linalool, and/or CBN. Try a variety that is low in THC and high in CBD. If you are using a high CBD variety, it may be that you are using too high a dose, which can be sedating. At low doses, you should find this type of cannabis (high CBD) to be calming and energizing, not sedating.
