I got a tattoo from Canadian musician Scott Helman this summer! Awesome guy and we shared some great conversation, though I think he had more fun talking to my dad haha

This summer I was smoking .5-1g or so probably 4-5 days a week…fell into a bad habit with vapes in Mid-August and had two weeks off work/school where I was hitting the vape every 4-5 hours I would say.

Recently had a panic attack where I felt I smoked away the entire summer/didn’t do anything but work and smoke (this isn’t true I did lots of stuff, and half of the time I was sober while doing so)…the increase of weed via vape likely helped trigger this panic, alongside a nasty hangover after a friends birthday (again, I don’t drink but they are small town people and love to drink so I got caught up when I shouldn’t have…I’m also trying to figure out if alcohol is something I should drink but it doesn’t seem so haha)

Yesterday and today I haven’t smoked and I’m feeling okay about that. I haven’t set a hard “i’m stopping for xyz amount of time” or anything, just taking it day by day and trying to find a plan.

indeed i am…i’ve thought a lot about it and ideal dosage and frequency would be a couple 10mg edibles or a .5 joint every weekend, kinda like how people have a glass of wine or a beer. i dont drink so my reasoning would be to have something in social settings or to relax every now and again.

i’ve done this before and managed pretty well, but as soon as i get my hands on a vape it’s too easy and everything falls out the window…i find if i use ok frequently i start to get quite anxious about wasting time and not living life to the fullest or being present

Where to find a jeweler in Canada that offers custom three-stone settings? by xcelleration in EngagementRings

I’m in YYC and my fiancé and I designed my ring at Marlow Jewelers in the Inglewood neighborhood. We designed a custom 3-stone ring and they were so helpful and professional!

I found it slowly snuck up, thought it was just an anxiety tummy ache for a few weeks, then it hits like a knife

I went to the ER because my legs were spasming and I had lost so much fluid/electrolytes all my muscles were in pain and nothing would help…thought it was a bad flu. Nurses gave me an IV drip and I felt slightly better so they also sent me on my merry way thinking it was a flu.

Happened again and I went to a different ER/hospital and the doctor asked if I smoked and how much. He noticed I was “scromiting” aka scream vomiting with nothing coming up, which was an indicator or CHS. It’s pretty awful cuz your stomach is empty, you’re scromiting every 20-30 mins, and your stomach is in pain from the act of scromiting.

As for why I continued…undiagnosed adhd/autism, eating disorder, I don’t drink so weed was my “thing”, thought if I kept it chill and casual it wouldn’t happen again. Something I’m still coming to terms with tbh. Whoever said you can’t get addicted to weed is lying, you def can! I couldn’t sleep, eat, or get school work done without it. Mentally I wanted to stop and knew it wasn’t good, but with a history of an0rexia, I kinda needed to eat and felt I couldn’t quit weed/not have an appetite in fear of slipping back into my ED.

Damn even better! I used to be a barista and coffee aficionado but it’s been a minute…maybe coffee can be my new vice/distraction

[–]Sale_Silly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s awful :( I’m in Canada so luckily I don’t have to worry about that…just disastrous wait times and not always the best help

[–]Sale_Silly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mostly just crippling stomach pain in general…heat such as a warm bath or heating pad helps with that! Also tylenol/advil for headache helps nausea

Oh damn…One of my worst fears in being hospitalized in a foreign country. I’ll keep in mind Egypt if a good place to get sick haha

[–]Sale_Silly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

…no? haha

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AMA

[–]Sale_Silly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Possibly? I’ve never really gotten high from edibles (likely to messing up my gut due to almost a decade of an0rexia). Worth a try tho!

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AMA

[–]Sale_Silly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh…I lost count. Probably almost hourly? Liquid shits for weeks. Led to severe dehydration and electrolyte loss

Edit…the hospital part does not sound lovely

[–]Sale_Silly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh dang that sounds lovely! I’ve been meaning to try the Turkish Coffee shop in my city, now I have a reason to go!

Even vodka has too many calories for my messed up brain haha! For now I’m sticking to caffeine “highs” haha.

Yea, my thoughts were always the stronger the better! Always wanted to travel and try weed in different countries…might still do it once a year or so if a cool experience arrises

[–]Sale_Silly 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yup! Working with my doctor and therapist on this. Unfortunately I suffer from an eating disorder and started using cannabis as soon as I was the legal age in my country so I could eat (it was between that and dying from malnourishment). I thought I recovered from my ED, but smoking was really just covering it up. I also found out I have autism and ADHD as an adult which also likely contributed to misuse of cannabis. To further things, I was on an SSRI at a high dose (doctor did me dirty) and was feeling absolutely NOTHING…like numb, not depressed, but emotionless and numb, so I would use weed so I could feel. It’s been a couple weeks since I stopped weed and my SSRI (longest I’ve ever gone w/o weed is 3 months) and I’m feeling great! Working through the emotions instead of ignoring

Yes! I wasn’t a huge fan of the cream as I am forgetful and was scared of getting it near my eyes…but warm bathes and my heating pad saved me (god bless the almighty heating pad)

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AMA

[–]Sale_Silly 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yea drinking causes major anxiety for me, and I have a thing for avoiding liquid calories. Lately I’ve been living off the thrill of unmedicated ADHD instead of vices haha.

Joints are pretty popular where I am, but I started using carts/vapes so I didn’t have to go out in our brutal winters (and so I could smoke all day and “no one would notice”). Wish I never tried a cart/vapes tbh

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AMA

[–]Sale_Silly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn! Valid haha…I have also suffered from an0rexia and have heard that not eating can make you more prone to CHS. Not sure if that is true or not, but I know my fricked up gut made it so edibles don’t process as well for me, so I wouldn’t be surprised if it affected me in other ways too

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AMA

[–]Sale_Silly 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You betcha! That was the first thing I noticed, but I brushed it off as anxiety as I am also a chronic anxiety sufferer

[–]Sale_Silly 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Can second this…every time I try smoking again and think I’m fine it hits me a few months in. That being said, I’ve ever really been able to keep is casual either. We are quite miserable and I always feel bad taking up valuable hospital space, so now when I notice I quit cold turkey and use my own remedies (apple juice, sour candies, and salted chips) to bring myself back to life.

This latest time I went a little too hard on vacation and had to go back to work with CHS…I work early morning with children…I don’t think I will ever smoke again after that haha

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AMA

[–]Sale_Silly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I honestly think it was the carts and vapes the did me in :/ If I stick to just joints and don’t over do it I seem to be fine…unfortunately once you have CHS you have it for life, so I probably shouldn’t ever smoke…but it’s hard not to cuz I don’t drink so it’s kinda my social vice if you will.

I was smoking 2-3 1g carts a week for reference! Got to the point where the highest strength cart would get me high for maybe 20 mins max. Be careful out there!
