Denver Legalizes Weed in Bars, Clubs and Cafes

The state’s capital is working to pass legislation that will allow recreational marijuana use in bars, clubs and cafes, according to Reuters. More specifically, private businesses will have the option of allowing adults to use marijuana on their premises. This would make Denver the first U.S. city to allow its citizens to use marijuana in public social settings.

The measure, known as I-300 is expected to take effect in late January. If all goes according to plan, citizens of Denver will be able to get high in their favorite social setting without any legal repercussions. Other states that have already legalized recreation marijuana use are currently working to pass similar measures.

California, Massachusetts, and Nevada legalized recreational marijuana use in last week’s election. Arizona rejected it. Major cities in all of those states could follow in Denver’s footsteps if all goes well with the new measure. Maine also had a vote on recreational pot use, but the ballots are currently being recounted.

Why People Feel So Tired

According to the Royal College of Psychiatrists, at any given time, one in five people feels unusually tired, and one in 10 has prolonged fatigue. It's a sign of our overbooked times. Getting your energy back could be simpler than you think.

Women tend to feel tired more often than men. Feeling zapped of energy on a daily basis is so common that it even has its own acronym. Every person is different and so is there level of sleepiness. Some wake up in the morning feeling as if they haven't even slept at all day.

Dr. Molly Cooke, president of the American College of Physicians and a general internist at the University of California, San Francisco, says feeling tired all the time is common, not normal. But don’t count on a quick fix. Schedule a physical examination if you always feel tired or weak. It may be a depressed phase of bipolar disorder can also cause people to feel extraordinarily tired.

Often the perception going into the doctor’s office is that there’s a simple medical problem. The number-one energy-stealer is stress. As a society we are overworked and under-fit; we sleep poorly and worry a lot. Then there’s depression. People who experience depression in a particularly somatic way will often complain of feeling tired and wiped out, rather than describing it in an emotional way --  ‘I feel sad’; ‘I feel low.”

Snoring could also play a role. If you snore habitually, you may experience un-restful or fragmented sleep, which can affect your daytime productivity. 2.2 million Americans complain of being tired. Studies show that people who eat breakfast feel better both mentally and physically. The type of fatigue you’re experiencing is important to note.

If you used to race up the stairs to your apartment without missing a beat, but now you’re huffing and puffing by stair number five, that’s not the same as waking up feeling unrested and being completely wiped out by the end of the day. Certain medical problems, such as anemia or chronic fatigue syndrome could be the root issue. To find out about other common medical causes of extreme fatigue.
