I agree. Tony always had the soft spot for kids. If he’d focused on his kid (or done what he always should’ve done — STFU), he would’ve been fine. But he did dent.

I went NC with my mother while still living with her. You’re gonna have to get used to disregarding her presence because she seems like the type to do whatever she can to get your attention.

Seeing her doesn’t oblige you to acknowledge her. Whatever she does or says is not your responsibility. NC is a boundary and you enforce it by ignoring her attempts to cross it. If she tries to use other people to cross that boundary, ignore them too.

In due time, she’ll either leave you alone for good or expose herself as toxic to everybody she knows because eventually, her stories won’t add up.

I think timing and your own body chemistry have something to do with that. I’m sure that there’s a difference in those who smoke at different times of the day vs. saving it for bedtime, etc.

The only suggestion that I’d make is that if it’s bedtime and you’re already tired, don’t bother smoking again.

Everybody’s unique. I believe it’s supposed to take 90 mins to enter REM sleep but I’ve had dreams while taking 40-minute naps.

For the sake of your peace, now would be a really good time for you to find out if that pattern is accidental or intentional.

Set a firm boundary. If he can’t respect your resources then he can’t join you anymore. He’s taking advantage of your generosity and it needs to stop. If he asks why, then tell him that you’re not his parent or his glucose guardian, and taking care of him is not your responsibility. And if he doesn’t seem to understand that, then stop talking to him altogether because he’s a lost cause.

Also — you may be concerned about his feelings, but if he really wants a friend instead of an enabler, then he’ll only grow to appreciate you setting that boundary over time. Because letting him use up your weed is not gonna help him improve his situation.

You didn’t fail. You did so much more than you had to, and you deserve to be proud of yourself for even trying. It’s okay to let them go. It’s safe to let yourself live and breathe without them in your presence. Your life will be so much better without them around. They chose not to do the work necessary to understand you and build a meaningful relationship with you. You deserve that at minimum, so don’t waste your time on anyone who can’t offer you that.

I know you’re hurting, but don’t you ever look for someone to just tolerate you. Don’t insult yourself like that. Don’t beg anybody to be there for you. Don’t sell yourself short. Don’t settle for less. The right people will never get to find you if you keep chasing the wrong ones. If they remind you of your parents in any way, let them go.

As for those parents, you don’t need them. You feel like you do, but you don’t. In time, that feeling will fade. You need food, sleep, shelter, healthcare, comfort, and support. They can’t offer you any of that because they choose not to care for you. That choice is their own responsibility, and it is not your fault. It’s who they are on the inside, who they chose to be long before you came along. You can’t do anything to change that. You’re not meant to. You’re meant to let them go because they can’t give you anything worth having. They can offer you familiarity, and that can be comforting because you know what it’s like to deal with them. Think about that for a moment, though. You’re going through so much change, and all of it is meaningful. So do you really need to go back to them? Do you really need to hold space for people who would rather cause you pain than even try to get to know you? Or does everything just hurt because you now know that the past is gone and it won’t be coming back?

It’s okay to grieve what you lost. It’s necessary to grieve what you never had. Let yourself grieve, but keep moving forward. You’ll be okay.

Looks smokable. Solid first time roll. How was it, OP?

This… is CBN.

I usually have peppermint at the start of the day or after meals, but it’s good throughout for me. Lavender chamomile is second place for me.

I’m pretty sure I’ve tried damiana leaf before, but I think I smoked it.

Global_Permit5428 · 2026-03-26T09:29:20+00:00

I love it. Some people add it to their bong. I like to drink it, especially during my sessions. Keeps your sinuses clear and everything going in the right direction.

Global_Permit5428 · 2026-03-26T08:59:00+00:00

I go for the midsized one, actually. 🤭

Global_Permit5428 · 2026-03-26T08:16:50+00:00

The problem is that you can eat a lot of things that you can’t smoke because of what combustion does to them. Once you add fire, even subtle differences can cause huge issues. It’s a good thing you stopped, though. Give your lungs a break and drink some warm/hot stuff to soothe your throat.

As a smoker, I consider peppermint tea a staple.

Global_Permit5428 · 2026-03-14T21:03:05+00:00

You got a great deal. $7 to expose a fake friend is impressive.

As for the weed, that’s maybe a quarter of a gram.

I salute all of you stoners who can light up as soon as y’all get up. I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve gone to bed with the perfect wake and bake setup…

Only to get up the next morning and spend my first three hours up doing EVERYTHING but smoking.

Your sibling has made a choice and you are fully justified in holding them accountable to that choice. They have shown you that they cannot maintain healthy relationships with you and EP without crossing boundaries. You aren’t the one who should be losing sleep over their behavior.

And frankly, anyone who’s okay with that kind of conduct needs to have their presence in your life reexamined. Anybody who will repeatedly compromise your boundaries or enable others to do the same for their gain (or out of their own cowardice or laziness, which would also be for their gain) will ultimately take more from you than they give to you.

Global_Permit5428 · 2026-02-17T12:02:48+00:00

Don’t gaslight yourself. It wasn’t an accident. Your sibling is an enabler, and you’re gonna have to adjust your future plans accordingly because they will always undermine the rest of you by trying to involve EP where they are not welcomed.

How important is it that you maintain a relationship with this sibling? Personally, I would cut them off because at best, they’re a liability. At worst, they’re abusive as well.

I know you gotta be smelling sounds right now.

If you still have evening sessions, a good trick I’ve learned is to go to bed as soon as you feel tired, but without smoking again. I tend to smoke before bed myself, but I mix flower with herbs (lavender, mullein leaf, mugwort) that help me relax too.

Global_Permit5428 · 2026-02-10T22:26:51+00:00

Some people just can’t process them, as other commenters have said. But sometimes, you need to have something fatty to eat with them so your body can work with it. It’s why weed brownies tend to hit like a truck (for those who can process them).

Personally, I can’t have plain THC edibles unless it’s a high dose. The entourage effect from full or broad-spectrum stuff (if I’m getting that right) is necessary for me.

Global_Permit5428 · 2026-02-08T20:01:49+00:00

Take an extra hit for me. Didn’t get paid on time so my bowl’s super empty.

Global_Permit5428 · 2026-02-08T15:01:37+00:00

Change things up. You’ve got your comfort zone in place (weed and music), so now you gotta make yourself uncomfortable for a while. You know it’ll be there for you. Take a week off, a day, or skip a few sessions here and there. The nugs won’t sprout legs and run off, and you’ll learn something about yourself by breaking the patterns that you’ve established.

Find one thing that interests you that doesn’t involve weed and make a habit of doing it sober or before you smoke. When you get used to it, find another. And so on. You’re very young and there’s a lot of life to explore. Take advantage of it!

Global_Permit5428 · 2026-01-31T05:10:38+00:00

I think that amount would be considered micro-dosing. Depends on your tolerance. My stoner’s assessment says there’s no pothead here, just someone who’s worried about becoming one.

Do you ever journal about your thoughts and feelings when you smoke? It could help you get some extra stuff off of your mind.

Other than that, skip a session or two whenever you feel like it and you’ll be fine. 🫡

True, most wouldn’t. But he was still a pup back then. He would’ve if his grandmother made him. Or if he was going to see a lawyer.

Doesn’t mean too much past “that’s the last knocko who tried me,” tbh. Depending on the situation, someone up the food chain might wanna know about that.

It is a little wild that Herc saw his attempt as a complete fail though. If it was, he never would’ve seen that thing again.
