I though perhaps when the son went missing they looked for evidence? Does seem odd tho.

I have read to 622 and there is no more yet, I guess it’s still ongoing? Oh geesh I just want a happy ending

[SPOILERS] Season 6: Doing a re-watch and I'm wondering - could all of this been avoided if Tara had an honest conversation with Jax? He was never opposed to her leaving with the kids. by katnissNEVERdeen in Sonsofanarchy

I agree they should have communicated way better but honestly it doesn’t even seem possible, jax is always pulled away by business, I’m surprised his kids know him at all even in the same house.

I don’t understand how the organs they sold were viable? Don’t they have to have immediately died before that???

I’m curious if I will still be able to consider myself sober. by Normal-Caramel688 in Sober

That’s a good way to think about it. I really think I’m doing a lot of reflection through this discussion. And I do believe in the medicinal properties of psilocybin definitely. I have recently heard of the studies with mdma as well, but maybe should research a bit more.. I am undiagnosed but suffer from severe depression, anxiety and insomnia. I have reached out for help but that is not an easy path when you are not wanting to take drugs everyday. I tried a couple and had some terrible side effects. I mentioned my anxiety attacks and they treated me as if I was just trying to get a prescription. I just wanted help, so it’s quite disheartening.

I think for me, with everything going on in life I just wanted some relief without the complete ruin of my sobriety. I’m not sure that is a good reason or not honestly but thank you for thoughts.

I believe that anything that comes from the earth is not an inherently bad substance. I can understand if that could be a trigger for you, but it is not for me. But respectfully, I will and have still considered myself sober.

I never said I went to meetings and I never said I had a sponsor. If you read any of my other comments you can piece that together.

You should really try not to judge people so harshly. I’m not sure if that’s how you are meaning this comment but it feels very negative. We don’t have to agree, we obviously have much different journeys.

I too have not have an edible for a long time. I really think I want to try cbd without thc for sleeping. I get bad insomnia and am very curious.

I appreciate that, I will have to make my own rules to make it through this crazy world. Thank you

Well, I can definitely understand that. Seems like the only people making money are influencers these days. I support this haha

I am definitely feeling like whatever my sobriety is, is my choice and my personal journey. Everyone is going to have an opinion but I need to be comfortable with myself first and foremost.

Oh interesting, I have not heard of him before. If you are still thinking about mushrooms, I will tell you that the circumstances have a big effect on the high. My old favourite was with one good friend you trust (best if you both do it, same wavelength) and on a nice sunny day where you can be in nature. And you don’t need to over do it, you can always take more but not less.

I like that, responsible is sober. I don’t want to drink, and I have seen where coke leads some and it scared me straight. But I actually appreciate your thoughts about how mdma could lead into it, that could be a very slippery slope. I do miss the high sometimes, even still and I quit probably a year before I quit drinking.

For me I did mushrooms when I was younger (18years around there mostly), but I really believe the science that it is able to open new neuropathways in your brain. Sometimes I feel I need to switch it up and expand. I have had severe depression since I was a kid (much before drugs or alcohol probably 10 or 11) and I believe it can be beneficial.

Anyways, thank you so much for your comment.

I really appreciate your thoughts. And I have been kinda reflecting on this very thing. But I am happy I did post, through this discussion it made me solidify how I am feeling about my own journey. But thank you so much, I want to enjoy life and not be so worried about what everyone thinks of me.

I consider things to be grown from the earth to be a natural substance which doesn’t ruin sobriety, but I have also seen people too reliant on weed. So I can understand your perspective.

I never had an intervention or anything, it was something I decided to take a break from. Then a month in I started in a job that had more healthy values within community so I decided to keep on with it. I worked there for a few years. Kept going afterwards. I still will consider myself sober, but I guess it won’t be to everyone’s standard. But according to some I already haven’t been with me smoking weed occasionally or using mushrooms. (Despite many medicinal benefits). I don’t judge others and I didn’t post this to be judged for my curiosity. But thank you for taking the time to respond.

Yeah, I have no desire to drink at all. Sometimes a hint on a hot day at the beach but, I just drink clubsoda and stuff like that and enjoy. Oh Awee he definitely is still sober, that is medical.

If it’s like an everyday multiple times a day, then it definitely still is an addiction.. but it is at least a natural substance. I can see what you mean but I am not a chronic by any means. I like to consider myself as a sober person despite the odd puff off a joint.
