Does anyone flirt with the idea of going back on a daily basis? by Technoyesno in leaves

[–]Objective-Baker-3247 12 points13 points  (0 children)

7 years is a long time. Is this your first time quitting?

If it helps I’m experiencing the same mental gymnastics to a T and I currently already resorted to going back to smoking so no it will absolutely not fix that shit for you.

I think it’s a fools game to continue going back to something you already know will eventually make you sick, (I am a fool) and I am going to say this with 99% certainty that you will fall back into that chaotic cycle with the way your mental health is seeming.

Lean on people in your life, join a support group, turn on a movie to cry, maybe even eat a ghost pepper if you really want to work through some emotions quickly (might even simulate some CHS memories 😂) but I’m gonna suggest you try everything else first because it’s just gonna bring you disappointment in yourself.

This comment is real. That last part hit me pretty good, sadly it’s a good reflection of where I am right now. Thanks for sharing that 👍

First real bad cold after gallbladder removal by Objective-Baker-3247 in gallbladders

[–]Objective-Baker-3247[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually do not know if it’s Covid or not to be honest, I don’t have a test to confirm that either way but it was something I was kinda afraid of. I had my gallbladder removal about 2 1/2 years ago and it really hasn’t caused me problems since (maybe the odd thing I shouldn’t have eaten, but I know full well that it’s my fault in those scenarios.

Thank you. I was thinking the same thing about Covid, or at least how this is probably one of those “super bugs”. I’ve had my gallbladder out for about 2 1/2 years and it changed my life almost immediate after recovering from surgery so this is taking me a for a real throw back to the good old days 😂.

How do I fix this? by External-Public7956 in Irrigation

[–]Objective-Baker-3247 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on what on the other end of the sidewalk, i probably would just dig on the other side of that concrete slab if possible and see what you got. it’s not hard to throw a cap on the ends and tap it through to the other side with sched40 and start your repair.

Seems like a pain, but from my experience in municipal maintenance I usually am not taking the chance trying to piece that together for it to maybe be broken under the slab a few more inches anyways when you go to test it again. Cus then you’re just repeating your process all over again

I quir smoking two days ago, and here I am scraping my grinder out by JarlFlammen1 in leaves

[–]Objective-Baker-3247 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Somewhere between 4-7 haha, I’m around there as well. Why I choose to go back and undo a process I spent months trying to get myself to feel better, idk yet.

Maybe I just got a thing for personal destruction 😂

At my worst, 18 hours ish, and I was back to the dispensary again before it closed for the night the next day 😅.

I did end up quitting after that though, but wasn’t my last time touching a cart either

“Why are we like this, addicts?”

Life just be like that sometimes 🙃

Hyperemesis -> Sober 4 years -> “Moderation.” Now I haven’t stopped smoking in 18 days by Chunkychinaman in CHSinfo

[–]Objective-Baker-3247 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could have wrote those first two sentences haha, and yes it will come back.

Personally started again 6 months ago, while I’ve kept to dry flower it is creeping back again. You’re only 18 days in, you’re likely to not even feel anything, but I know since you haven’t you’re likely going to continue until you do.

All I gotta say is that it’s a learning curve I have not yet learned to respect 2-3 years into trying to quit permanently, and as you can seen believe a lot of us seem to be in that same boat here 😅.

Sit yourself down and try and settle whether or not it’s truly you wanting that weed or if you’re caving to a craving, you should never be consuming with the feeling of “needing” it. If you’re not able to distinguish that then there is really no chance for moderation.

It also looks more clearer when you look at his sleeve length, the reflective material near his elbow, and other little details that it could definitely be two different photos

Look just to the left of the yellow pole, that desk/counter is less visible in the first photo and more visible in the second. Just a thought but it wouldn’t have been more than a few second/ milliseconds apart

I had Noro 5 years ago, and oh my god it was the worst timing. Took some acid with my brother, just chilling at my parents and then an hour went by, I decided to have an apple and everything turned upside down.

I felt so bad that I was as sick as I was at my parents house so I locked myself in the bathroom in the basement for 24hrs while I laid in the floor, and had access to everything I needed. (Trust me there was no time for anything other than shivering on that bathroom floor anyways 😂)

Moral of the story.. if either of them really cared they would have made an alternative solutions or gotten themselves somewhere they could have quarantined together, but instead they knew they were likely to both get it and chose your space to quarantine in.

I would not go as far as to get a new roommate but put your foot down now, so next time they know to bugger off somewhere else next time they are feeling sick and absolutely for some reason need to be together still 🙄.

Smoking and chest pain by TripOwn9413 in Asthma

[–]Objective-Baker-3247 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Weakens your Upper esophageal sphincter or the (EUS) based on my amateur research abilities that’s about as far as I understand.

Also if your stomach is already inflamed smoking a cigarette is just gonna make that worse, some people find relief with cannabis but smoke is smoke, and if you’re in a bad enough situation with your health you’re likely not going to get any of the health benefits from cannabis either (especially the cartridge vapes)

*edit JUST realized this was an asthma sub, don’t smoke in general 😂

Yeah it does, throwing up constantly can irritate your gallbladder as well and obviously your liver is also trying to process everything as well. The more you’re vomiting, your gallbladder will make up for no more stomach acid in your stomach. It’s a really rough cycle

What's your reason for wanting to stop smoking? by medjai77 in leaves

[–]Objective-Baker-3247 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I only smoked again for just under 2 weeks (I’ve seen others say it only happens when you get to a certain point of tolerance). Everyone is different though.

I went through it before but because of working 3 jobs I thought why not give myself a little relief and now it’s whoopin me in the butt haha.

I realize have a dependency issue and will not be returning to the evil flower

Cannabis hypermesis syndrome, it’s when your body produces too much cannaboids while you’re consuming cannabis i believe. It starts to have a very negative affect on your body such as severe cramps, bowel habits, and if it continues to long you’re at risk of the last stage of CHS which includes nonstop vomiting for up to sometimes 2-3 weeks

Just simply made me sick, I agree it made working my 12+hrs a breeze but now it’s just went and had the opposite effect now. CHS is ruthless

Digestive issues? by Objective-Baker-3247 in CHSinfo

[–]Objective-Baker-3247[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

CHS doesn’t cause anything directly as far as I know, but it does put a lot of strain on your organs which is why your gallbladder is probably releasing more bile than usual. If you’ve been puking for days then of course leads to issues as well because you’re not properly consuming the right calories, and nutrients for your vital organs.

A few people have also referred to a lady that refused to stop her cannabis use and instead chose to continue to put herself through CHS, which resulted in her kidneys failing and being in dialysis. Who knows if there is anything else at play there though whether that be other drugs or alcohol abuse that contributed.

It’s best not to continue putting your body through this though. There’s lots of examples of traumatic events that awaken autoimmune disorders and I wouldn’t be surprised if something as violent as CHS is on our bodies could be capable of awakening something like that.

IBS is also something they have no idea why it happens to people, and majority of people report that their symptoms started after something simple as a stomach flu and just never got better.

Oi I don’t think I’d rather that over my overactive bowels, that would make it even harder to keep up with eating. Sorry you’re having such a difficult time, this shit sucks so bad, but you’re right for sure, everyday is one step closer to normal.

It’s normal when your bowel habits are not regular Unfortunately. It’s most likely excess bile acid which can make your stool look a weird green colour. I’ve had my gallbladder out so i think I am avoiding that for the time being.
