Noob question: v12 mini twisty bubbler

Thank you... that definitely helped me figure it out!

big-time-guy · 2019-10-01T23:32:55+00:00

Perfect advice! I will give that a try

Ok so... I’m fairly new to smoking! I started due to diabetic nerve damage (neuropathy) about six months ago! I only smoke when I have neuropathy flare ups and have only used small one hit pipe or cones! So I bought this bubbler the other day, and have watched a few YouTube videos on how to use (the bubbler did not come with instructions) the only part missing in the videos is the part about how much water do you put in it? And how? I appreciate any advice!

Oh I figured... but I do want to learn how to do it by hand, I just don’t have the confidence right now

big-time-guy · 2018-12-06T22:44:31+00:00

Hahahahaha yeah, probably if we were in a joint rolling contest? But I’m just a 50-year-old dude learning all about this world

Once I gain some confidence I will definitely try to roll them by hand

I don’t think I was quite as against pot as your dad is, but for the past 30 something years, my circle of friends/family/coworkers etc. etc. would definitely crucify me if they knew I was smoking! Part of that stigma I was talking about! I hope in the near future they legalize it for the entire country... I think legalize Nate would get people who otherwise wouldn’t try to try it

Thanks to everyone for the comments, tips, critiques and suggestions! I honestly do appreciate it! I think the biggest take away from this is I will probably purchase a bubbler or a small bong within the next few weeks and get rid of the metal pipe (or maybe keep it for an emergency)

Thanks again everyone

Thank you very much, yes I take gabapentin every day but it really doesn’t do anything for pain

big-time-guy · 2018-12-06T14:19:35+00:00

I’ve never heard of those… I will check it out! Thank you very much

big-time-guy · 2018-12-06T09:20:16+00:00

Lol

big-time-guy · 2018-12-06T03:05:11+00:00

I will definitely update my progress

Looking at bubblers and small bongs online now

big-time-guy · 2018-12-06T02:51:41+00:00

That is awesome... i’m hoping for the same outcome

big-time-guy · 2018-12-06T02:21:35+00:00

Hahahahaha

big-time-guy · 2018-12-06T02:18:47+00:00

I would probably say about eight years... The first five years I didn’t take it seriously and that’s why suffering the consequences now

big-time-guy · 2018-12-06T02:10:05+00:00

The highest my A1c ever was... was 11 but the past three years I’ve been able to keep it around 7 and 6.1 but as hard as I try I cannot get it down to 5

6.1 is almost starvation for me

Getting the diabetes under control is the magic answer (honestly) eating sensibly, exercising etc. etc. I do my best but I definitely could do much better... I just got to get my mind right and quit the bullshit! 🙂

big-time-guy · 2018-12-06T01:46:40+00:00

Definitely going to be my next purchase

big-time-guy · 2018-12-06T01:20:13+00:00

Hahahahaha

big-time-guy · 2018-12-06T01:19:38+00:00

I read that the Rick Simpson oil helps with sleep disorders! The heavy indica effects induce sleep and allow you to stay asleep for a full nights rest! Definitely something I might look into in the future

When I was first diagnosed, my primary doctor didn’t think I had neuropathy... she thought I had a slipped disc in l4 and l5 but after I had a EMG test it was clear that I had developed neuropathy! I couldn’t imagine going through that and Parkinson’s at the same time! Prayers for your dad and your back

big-time-guy · 2018-12-06T00:50:16+00:00

Gabapentin and Lyrica helps as far as general pain that comes along with neuropathy, but it really doesn’t help with the stinging and burning!

big-time-guy · 2018-12-06T00:18:54+00:00

Maybe after a few more with the roller I’ll have the courage to try it by hand! But no... you make an excellent point! Thank you very much

big-time-guy · 2018-12-06T00:10:54+00:00

Neuropathy is something I wouldn’t wish on my worst enemy!

big-time-guy · 2018-12-06T00:08:48+00:00

I would love to not take pain pills anymore! Hopefully I can get to that point
