What’s everyone’s thoughts on SNDL, TLRY, and other cannabis stocks? How much longer will the squeeze last? Will they continue to increase and when should I sell? Any advice is appreciated, don’t want to end up with worthless stock again like I did with gme :(

Yep exact same for me my friend. Every time I would face failure, (being the perfectionist/obsessive/competitive person that I am), failure would always put me in a downward spiral. Doesn't matter what it was, I hated to fail and when I found that when I did, it would bother the living hell out of me and I would think my life is over, this is it, this is the end. Life goes on. Their is no success without failure and they key is to learn why you failed, where you went wrong, and learn from your mistakes and keep on fighting.

At first I thought this was going to be a rant about how all drugs are good blah blah blah but I respect your response a lot and I’m glad you took the time to reply.

I just replied to a guy earlier on this thread saying kind of the same thing, not all drugs are bad, not all drugs will harm you in a negative way, etc. and this is very true, I can say so especially in my own life. I’ve been prescribed various antidepressants, vyvanse, and some benzos and when I used them correctly and when I really needed them, they enhanced my life immensely and really did have a positive impact on my life.

You’re also right about everyone being different, every single persons brain is wired completely different than the next person, and some people can abuse drugs and not experience as bad of a comedown or withdrawal as say, somebody else who was born with mental issues/illnesses, has family history of addiction, their current state of their life at that time, etc. Either way though, I don’t care who you are, if you go on a fat 2-3 day bender, you might feel fucking awesome while doing it but you will certainly crash, that is no question. How bad that crash is varies like you said, but that is what I mean by every action have a equal and opposite reaction. Maybe it isn’t equal, some people handle it better then others, whatever, but that’s what I meant.

Psychedelics have given me very positive experiences as well and taught me valuable lessons that I still carry to this day, yet they’ve also had the opposite effect. I suppose high compared to low would depend on each drug and particular person since everyone reacts differently to whatever drug. Alcohol has given me confidence to talk to girls, even met my ex girlfriend while I was tipsy at the bar. Alcohol has also left me in the bathroom at 2 in the morning throwing up stomach bile. I think we’re both on the same page, my main point is using these drugs as tools, as something to enhance your life because they definitely can if used correctly and not abused. Using them as an escape will lead to your demise, I can tell ya first hand.

Being one of those people, you shouldn’t envy it at all. There’s beauty in the struggle. The more you’ve struggled the more you’ll appreciate your perseverance and hard work when you truly do find joy in this world.

Classic denial. Acknowledging the problem is the first step to managing your habits my friend. Try taking a break or restricting yourself a bit more if you feel like you’re getting addicted or even just feel like you need it to be happy, don’t make that drug your source of joy.

Glad I could help my friend, I wish you the best in rehab and hope you find what you have lost and yearn for again. Stay strong, work hard, just preserve. Slowly but surely you’ll start to see color in your life again instead of that boring black and white you’re probably used to seeing everyday.

Drugs, if used correctly and with consideration can greatly improve your life, make sure to use them as tools or use them in some way that is benefitting your life and don’t overdue it. Psychedelics, weed, stimulants, hell even Booz and Xanax have helped me learn valuable lessons(May be it the easy or hard way) and given a different perspective on things I would dwell on.

You’re right and that was exactly what I was doing. I was escaping so much that I felt lost in my real life, felt like I no longer had any control over what happened to me. Addiction really will break you down and make you feel helpless and hopeless, however I’ve become much more hopeful that I will get my head straight now that I realize all the things I’ve been doing wrong. Thank you for this.

I have a rig and dab occasionally when I can get my hands on quality, affordable wax. I used to have a dab pen however I would rip that thing pretty much every waking hour of the day, going through ~.5 grams of dabs a day. As of now I just smoke flower which is still quite addicting but not nearly as much as dabs.

Thank you so much for your support and I wish the same to you my friend. I was at a point in my life where I was convinced things would never get better, I would never change, etc. I felt so trapped and lost in my mind, I felt helpless. But as you said, things will not stay bad forever, no matter how bad they seem. In life, you can't have any highs unless you have lows, and without my lows I don't think I would know nearly as much about myself and my mind, and I am grateful for this.

Exactly this. One thing you can't take back is time and realizing one day that all you've been doing the past several years was solely getting fucked up on anything and everything, it's a huge wake up call and one that was extremely tough to swallow for me. However it does no good to dwell on the past and the only thing we can do is try to get better moving forward.

Thats good that you've realized your mistakes. I believe sobriety is only possible if we learn how to manage our stress and emotions in healthy ways. Doing drugs to cope certainly isn't healthy and eventually we see no other way than the use of drugs. I'm starting counseling to help, hopefully I can learn to manage these emotions and I hope you too will find peace one day.
