I guess in the sense of the matrix. If you can be tricked into seeing things tripping, is the brain tricking what we see sober. The only thing we do know is theres no way to be certain

Are we not fooled into believing what we see sober is real

I had a similar fear after trying all the different meds to only feel worse. So I feared wasting years, going on a rollercoaster only to feel worse. But I thought fuck it let’s try it one more time and that worked

It did take me a good 3years to find the balance (tried all the pills, anti depressants, stims etc) and the help of a medical specialist who allowed you choice over what and what might not work. The first company, made all those choices for you, I got stuck with them for a year before changing to a new company.

I felt the same on low THC, I mean a real dose (medium for me) of THC 15-20% not 0.1 or what they sometimes have with CBD products.

If your vaping flower, I stick to 20-25% THC. Avoiding pure sativa, that just made by OCD and anxiety rocket

I vape and use oil but prescribed as the unprescribed oil didn’t have the right amount of THC to CBD balance to help

It’s more effective I found when all combined with a reasonably healthy diet and working out

It improved my sleep quality a lot which made other things less difficult to manage. I was never getting that rested feeling

I can relate to that feeling but for me stimulants wasn’t the answer, I just turned into a shaking clucker, even on the lowest dose. Autism and OCD likely makes it worse. It was finding the right balance of high CBD and medium THC that worked for me, then once as op rather well put it, slowed down the firehose. Allowing for a healthy diet and healthier choices, mediation and exercise. Improving my wellbeing overall

Same, just didn’t do the homework or attend school full time. Only turned up for a morning presence and went home shortly after. School tried for a year or 2, gave up and ignored it

Banning smoking out right makes it more tempting for teens. Oh it’s naughty not allowed we want it more. Drug dealers will take over, kids are already a profit mill for them

This is ridiculous. popup vape shops that sell tobacco too, are laughing at these rules and laws, it’s profit to them. You can get served from 12yo old in them shops, so now teens can resell it on. Bypassed supermarket enforcements

About time. This is needed after a curry weekend on the 100mile trip home

I felt the same as op till one person changed it slightly but I still don’t have that pull. It’s more for curiosity or pleasing with anyone else. They are more fwb than bf and that works with being nd. They treat you like a bf without the label or ties. Sex still gives me panic attacks but the fwb arrangement helps a bit
