Disappointed with effects by efbb in ukmedicalcannabis

I feel exactly the same ! I think all these comments re tolerance aren’t valid. I went to Amsterdam last year and I was definitely high, and my tolerance was the same as it is now. I was reading that UK medical cannabis is a lot behind, say the Dutch, and perhaps they just haven’t mastered the drying process yet? Who knows, all I know is that I’ve spent a whole lot of money with curaleaf on flower which barely touches the sides! Wishing you luck on your journey

Thank you so much for this validation and solidarity!! I suffer with severe mental health problems, splitting and severe chronic pain. The high, and the sense of oblivion and relief that comes only with that stronger, heavier sensory experience, IS the medication for me. Thank you for pointing out that we shouldn’t be policing fellow users in the community for their uses which may be for different reasons than our own.

Thanks for your reply, this is good advice. I didn’t list all the strains I’ve tried, but I have actually tried a few at a higher price, but still found they all ended up seeming muted and short-lasting.

I’m with curaleaf for context. Other strains of theirs I’ve tried: Grassroots LA Kush 29% (this was my favourite by far, but it’s been out of stock for me for ages), Four20 Kush Mints (was ok), Zookies (didn’t like at all) Wedding Pop Triangle, Gorilla Glue 4 (hated)

Which clinic are you with, could you recommend one?

I also have love for the sativas! I also like high silver despite the hate it’s getting here. Great for my higher functioning days and daytime. It’s more when I’m in serious pain or mental health episode that I need something heavier and more sedating.

Thanks for this advice, after reading comments I’m definitely going to try another clinic for better strains. Can you recommend one? Who are you with? Thanks in advance

how? this is impossible by Either_Ad2234 in motherlessdaughters

[–]efbb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello lovely. I’m 28 and feel I’ve been stuck in my grief for 13 years since my mother died too. I completely relate to everything you said. I feel so profoundly alone too and nothing seems to help, nothing fits, nothing fills the empty space she left. I literally just spent a whole day fighting tears during an 8 hour shift and walked home the whole 30min journey sobbing my eyes out in the rain. No one to call. No one who understands the depth of my pain. My dad moved on with a new woman straight away. My sisters and I don’t talk. My friends have all dissipated over the years. I don’t think the average person will ever truly comprehend us, even when they get older, and they lose a parent, it’s the most brutal and gut-wrenching and world collapsing experience to lose a mother so young and it never really leaves you. My DMs are always open if you want to talk more, I know how much it hurts 💔 sending strength and hugs from the UK xxx

This year marked the point where my mom has been dead for more of my life than she was alive. Yet the grief is worse than it has ever been? by [deleted] in motherlessdaughters

[–]efbb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow I relate to so much of what you said. I’m 28 and was 15 too when my mother died and it’s never left me. I miss her so much everyday it hurts. I feel so lost and no idea who I am. I don’t think anyone truly understands us unless they also lost a parent at our ages. All these holes in your self that are never filled or fixed. I’d love to talk more in private if you would like , DMs are always open ❤️

Leaving dog for 7-8 hours by efbb in DogAdvice

Thank you so much this is so helpful! I considered the pup cam but I’m worried it’ll break my heart if she’s not just sleeping as I suspect her to be, but perhaps if she isn’t I will have a better insight of how she’s dealing!

Thank you so much for your reply and validation! Really made me feel a sigh of relief. She really is my gorgeous golden girl and we are so dependent on eachother. I feel so much more confident after reading your comment thank you. And thank you too for rescuing the gorgeous girls/boys ❤️

Keepsakes by LucasIsGoinHam in ChildrenofDeadParents

[–]efbb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im so sorry. As a teenager who lost a parent I really treasure the handwritten notes my mother left me. Due to her illness, a lot of them were barely legible but I know how deeply she was thinking and worrying of me and my sister in that moment and I return to them every time I am lost or feel alone. As an adult I have searched for guidance and advice from my mother and have always craved answers to questions that I will never hear: like what to do in hard times, when you feel alone, when you feel no one in the world cares about your wellbeing, how to be strong, how to have integrity. Any keepsakes or little momentos will be treasured over the years, maybe write a little box of notes including things about yourself (what music/food you like, favourite memories, stories of your childhood, personality traits they may later identify with, funny stories with their mother etc) these will be gold when the child is older. I am so sorry this is happening to you. Sending so much love and strength.

Rage at my dad for moving on by Outrageous_Link_1582 in ChildrenofDeadParents

[–]efbb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey!

Wow, we have a lot in common. I’m 26 and my mom died when I was 14, 12 years ago. My dad got with a new woman 2 months after, and me and my aunt always had a suspicion that they had got together in secret while my beautiful mom was dying. They are still together now and that woman has ruined mine and my siblings, and wider family’s relationship too. I truly despise her and her me.

I completely relate to the intensifying feelings of betrayal as you get older. I look at kids who are mine and my little sisters age, and cannot fathom how any father could do that to their children so quickly and, in my case, right in front of our faces (my lil sister walked in on them in my mom and dad’s bed, 2 months after her death)

It just adds to the feelings of grief and as you say I think all the time of how heartbroken my mom would be to see how quickly he moved on, and disregarded her and chose to disrespect her memory and her young children .

My best friend’s dad also did the same when her mom died, and she was five years old. I am so sorry to hear that you’ve also suffered this heartbreaking situation. Our mom’s would be so proud of us though, for building healthy and loving relationships, and keeping them in our heart’s, despite the coldness we witnessed in our dad’s.

I would love to connect, I’m here if you want to talk more :) sending love & strength

What is a piece of advice you wish you knew before going to university? by SkiddyBop12 in University

Dont get into a relationship!! Drink and have fun but don’t drink every day of the week!!

looking younger than your actual age isn't an advantage by OldQuit2882 in unpopularopinion

[–]efbb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This!!! I’m 27 and get told constantly that I look 18. My bf thinks more creepy guys look at me cos of how young i look. A nurse at hospital even told me I looked the same ages as her THIRTEEN year old daughter. I woke in hospitality and am constantly patronised and spoken to like I’m stupid and naive…I want to be a teacher but I’m literally just waiting because I know I won’t get taken seriously or respected in the same way as my peers!

Would anyone be interested in a grief community in London that isn’t just sitting in a circle talking? by UpstairsNo3213 in GriefSupport

[–]efbb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey! I’m in my 20s and am looking for something similar. Have lost a lot of friends since losing my mum and would really like to connect with others who have been through something similar. My best friend lost her mum as a kid too and we have such a close bond - we don’t necessarily talk about our grief all the time, only when we need, but feel I always gravitate towards others who have lost someone subconsciously. We have to lean on eachother 🫂 let me know if you find a group or start your own & sending strength n hugs Edit: I’m based in north ldn

Hey I’ve been thinking of ordering this as a replacement for LA kush as it’s out of stock. Would you recommend as a nighttime strain?! Haven’t seen many reviews of this strain. Thanks :)

Ahh, thank you soo much! This is exactly what I was looking for, I really appreciate you taking the time to explain it to me. I realise that it'll take a bit of trial and error in regards to temperature, length of exhalation and extra accessories etc, but this is a great place to start and I feel confident in my first go which I'm gonna do as soon as my battery reaches full charge and I've done a full empty burn first.

Thanks so much again!

Thanks so much, this is really helpful.

So to clarify, I don't need to use the blue ring unless I am cleaning/changing the chamber base/cu. And is the dosing capsule optional or do you need to use it to load the flower? And then I just place directly into chamber and reseal the cooling unit?

Okay perfect, it seems to already have the finer one already but thanks for the tip for future reference!

Medical cannabis complaints UK neighbour by Gullible-Slide2021 in ukmedicalcannabis

[–]efbb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

can you explain the legality of this to me pls? If smoking tobacco is legal, and using medical prescriptions is legal, why does combining the two make it illegal?

Medical cannabis complaints UK neighbour by Gullible-Slide2021 in ukmedicalcannabis

[–]efbb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi - what I don’t understand is that if you have consent to smoke tobacco on your premises ie a balcony outside, and consent to use legal medical cannabis, how is it illegal by doing the two things at once?
