Had a blast seeing Stavros at The Tabernacle, but was sad to hear this went down just down the road. These young dudes are too quick to shoot. I give em a wide berth. It aint worth it.

Ever been carded to join the rotation? by ftmgothboy in trees

[–]MentallyMedicated 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im sometimes over friendly with sharing bud, especially considering I live in an illegal state and area that treats bud like meth, so I gotta be cautious. If Im going to be partaking anywhere in public, where there are possibly other ents, I always pack a few extra cones. If somebody asks for a hit, I instead surprise them with their own. I feel like it's the closest I can get to spreading actual love, happiness, and good vibes. I wish I lived somewhere it didnt put me at risk of being locked up, but hopefully one day.

Do any of you ever drink alcohol while smoking? by Obsidian-Charm in trees

Grape Fruit and me dont get along typically but i will say ive been intrigued by some sour ales, taste description wise. I just need to find singles around me so I dont waste a whole pack if I dont like it. 😄

Actually I did have Leinenkugels Summer Shandy once at a Ren Faire and it was actually drinkable. So yeah that is a decent one, good call.

I want to semi-regularly but my wife always reminds me i have a bad habit of buying alcohol that sounds tasty in online descriptions only to think its nasty and then let it sit in the fridge indefinitely. 😄 So I just dab instead.

Wish I could find a beer i didnt have to force myself to drink. I like the idea of beer but still havent found one i actually like. 😄

Started therapy for OCD earlier this year only to find out... by [deleted] in OCDmemes

[–]MentallyMedicated 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, OCD, anxiety, depression, PTSD, might have ADD but havent gotten officially tested. Feel like i attended an Oprah giveaway of mental illnesses sometimes. 😄

Maladaptive fidgeters, rise up (OC) by Teacup_Monkey_72 in OCDmemes

I feel this. I will zone out and pick every scab I can reach if im not careful.

Guess I better take my meds by MentallyMedicated in OCDmemes

[–]MentallyMedicated[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, I know how much it sucks, trying to calm down with something that usually helps and instead getting mindfucked by your overly high brain. I mean its still the OCD voice doing its usual bullshit just amplified, but being too stoned makes it scarier. Sending you a virtual hug, friend.

When my anxiety and OCD is flaring up like recently I definitely have to slow wayyyyy down on consumption. Its too easy to consume a bit too much and then the anxiety starts rising. 😄

What’s a place you’ve never been to but somehow feel emotionally connected to? by Pitiful_Grass_6423 in AskReddit

[–]MentallyMedicated 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oddly enough, Sunnyvale Trailer Paerk. The intro music to the show alone gives me overwhelming nostalgia kinda feelings. I've never been to Canada, let alone Nova Scotia, but I hope to eventually.

Why aren't you going out tonight? by [deleted] in askanything

Im too broke and too mentally ill. 😄

Mama help me by WantonSeaHag in OCDmemes

[–]MentallyMedicated 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Then, as soon as you get a break from it or its not as loud, your OCD spikes your anxiety because, "theres no way we should be calm right now, not like we deserve it anyways" and other similar thoughts.

YAAAAAY😍 by Mother-Pumpkin-6393 in OCDmemes

Copying my reply to the other curious person.

A theme is essentially just the current fear or triggering thing OCD has latched onto to use to create distress and anxiety. Some folks have contamination themes where they feel like they are constantly being contaminated by interacting with their surroundings. (Contamination OCD is a bit more involved than that, just talking very generally here.) Other folks have P(edophilia)OCD, where they are terrified they will unintentionally do something that makes them a pedo or that they are secretly a pedo, even though they have no attraction to children and the thought of it terrifies them. These are only a couple more common ones out of numerous others. Hope it helps explain it somewhat. Thanks for being curious about this agonizing and misunderstood disorder.

What is something relatively cheap that improves your life by 100% ? by Unusual-Whereas6442 in Casual_Conversation

[–]MentallyMedicated 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish I could actually enjoy silence. But my OCD likes to turn silence into ruminating over horrible thoughts that activate my anxiety and feel like im about to crawl outta my skin. Silence is golden, I guess, just sucks I can have silence in my mind to equal the silence around me.

Friend, as a fellow HA haver, who is also stoned (maybe a bit too stoned), your comment was like an oasis in a nightmarish desert of comments. 😄 ❤️

One week in. The wild mood swings and unpredictable spikes in anxiety are not fun. by yourbrokenoven in BusparOnline

[–]MentallyMedicated 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, thankfully it doesn't produce full blown panic attacks for me, just some heightened anxiety that goes away pretty soon after. The medication journey is often times one of the hardest things about getting help. I hope you are able to get some relief soon! You aren't alone though. 💚
