18% of U.S. young adults use cannabis to sleep, with risks linked to long-term use, experts say.
About 18% of U.S. young adults aged 19 to 30 use cannabis to help fall asleep, according to a 2025 study of nearly 1,500 people, with higher rates among women and those identifying as another gender.
Alcohol is used by 7% for sleep, particularly among daily users and Black respondents.
