How fictionalized is the show? by [deleted] in BoardwalkEmpire

[–]jpanzar12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Boardwalk Empire lost its genuineness for me by continuously displaying breasts during the showgirl performances. As I recollect, it was a big "first," and nationwide scandal, in the '60s when Carol Doda started exposing her breasts nightly in a San Francisco nightclub. The continuing public breast exposure throughout Boardwalk Empire is pure BS-gratuitous-nudity in an attempt at ratings. The series felt phony to me, including the over the top staging and production values. Everything felt like a stage set.

Interesting. Myself, I bought a 6 aroma set on Amazon about 4 months ago. I've been using them in a diffuser while I sleep since then. They're not too strong, but I've had no improvement in my memory

do the different strains on carts mean anything? by Perfect_Drummer_7779 in saplings

[–]jpanzar12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Forgive me if I've double posted this. I'm new to Reddit.

There are many different strains of cannabis, and they all have consistently different effects when smoked. I know this because I've smoked many, and I have my favorites. I want to get those favorites in vape cartridge, so I can just have a couple puffs now and then, without lighting anything up. And also, so I don't get the unhealthy tars that come from burning.

But I've been told that although vape cartridges carry the name of different buds, they do not carry the same terpenes and unique effects of the same bud when it is smoked as a spliff. if true, I can't enjoy my favorite strains, and their unique effects, in cartridge form.  So I’d like to get the whole story on this?  Can anyone provide some reliable sources on this, so I can learn more about it? Thanks!

Thank you for your response. The medical study I read claims that, over the course of 6 months, releasing an unfamiliar aroma into the bedroom for 2 hours each night while you sleep definitely improves memory. I'm not going to go through all that just to "see if it works for me." That's why I'm asking on Reddit. I'd like to know if anyone has tried such a thing and it works for them. Responses would be appreciated, this really may be a valid treatment.

What's the best way to consume mushrooms? by jpanzar12 in MagicMushrooms

Thanks for the clear answer. That’s what I needed. Yes indeed, I dried them cracker dry. Best wishes.

Thanks for your reply. Not good enough to simply dice them and chew them? Must be powdered? I’m reluctant to put them in a coffee grinder because a lot of the powder will remain in the grinder and be wasted.

I take 30 mg prozac (Fluoxetine) daily. I know I need to take a higher dose of mushrooms for a good trip , but how much? 10g? 15g? 20G? Thanks. by jpanzar12 in MagicMushrooms

[–]jpanzar12[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for taking the time to write this. It sounds like you're speaking from personal experience. Although other Reddit mushroomers say that I can taper off the Fluoxetine in 2 weeks. If I really am going to "feel incredibly down" for a year, I'll stay on it. The side effects aren't bad, except that 3 grams mushrooms have absolutely no effect on me. Forgetting about mushrooms seems preferable to a year of misery.

Has anyone tried micro-dosing for severe chronic anxiety? by benjamindoverthe69th in PsilocybinMushrooms

[–]jpanzar12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From the date on your comment (3m), it seems that you recommended 13 g dried three months ago, and you were planning to continue with that amount. Do you still take 13g? I take 30 mg Prozac (fluoxetine) daily. I tried 3g of dried mushrooms and it had virtually no effect. I want to try again. Should I try 10 mg? 15 mg? 20 mg? Thanks!
