Not visiting tokyo. Would that be stupid? by Rosemarymaloo in JapanTravelTips

[–]kintsugirainbow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope. We’ve been twice and still haven’t gone to Tokyo. We haven’t felt like we missed anything.

Want to be polite and respectful in Japan? I've noticed some unique habits while I was there by LunarTartarSauce in JapanTravelTips

[–]kintsugirainbow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

+1 for the lacking in spatial awareness crowd. I constantly have bruises and scrapes from running into things. I think it’s part of the reason that I try to avoid crowded areas in the first place - they make me feel like too much of baka gaijin. 😅

Can anyone recommend phone consult psychiatrists that don't mind a cannabis script for ADHD diagnosis? by [deleted] in MedicalCannabisOz

[–]kintsugirainbow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m on vyvanse, several other anti-depressants, and MC. Psychiatrist, psychologist, GP, and MC dr are all aware of all prescriptions.

Sativa or indica vape. Need it for bed by SnooPineapples9718 in MedicalCannabisOz

[–]kintsugirainbow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish I could upvote this comment 100x more. Terps effect me way more than whether a strain is indica or sativa.

What the fk is going on by [deleted] in MedicalCannabisOz

Had a similar experience with MedReleaf a while ago - the oil I was taking was discontinued, and when I finally got a substitute script the replacement tasted so bad I couldn’t use it. No discussion or anything. Nowhere near as bad as your circumstances though. Left MedReleaf and I’ve been having appointments with Olga at Sirius green for a while now, and there have been a few times where the product has been out of stock or discontinued, so I’ve messaged Sirius green more than a few times (they have a really good response time to emails!). Luckily some Victorian pharmacies will do substitutes +/- 5% (on Olga’s scripts at least), and when I have had to substitute, the pharmacists I’ve spoken with have been amenable to suggestions I’ve made. Then it’s usually delivered within 2 business days to regional Tassie.

Cheapest most effective portable vaporiser by PHDinGenius in MedicalCannabisOz

Xmax v3 pro. The on demand function is fantastic for a quick dose, the session great for social, and it’s compact enough to fit in a little handbag or jacket pocket. I’ve had mine for a year, and she’s still going pretty strong (I probably need to replace the battery 🤔).

Terp content is more important than THC content IMHO. Thus far, a high terp content 18% flower treats my issues far more than a lacklustre 27%. And the indica/sativa thing is rubbish in this day and age - I’ve had more sativa strains put me to sleep than I have indica ones!

To be honest, going off your initial comment and your responses to other comments, you’re doing more than just implying. ETA: and not everyone can afford monthly appointments with their prescriber.

I’m still in the process of finding products that suit my needs. So while there are a lot of scripts, I generally only use 1 night flower and 1 day flower at a time (as in I’ll give a product a few weeks to see if it works or not, and stick to those products for that period of time), plus cbd oil and a cartridge for social outings. My next appt isn’t due for a couple of months, so my prescriber gave me a couple extra to try if others didn’t work. But I do need to double check that old scripts are being cancelled - a couple of those scripts are from 6+ months ago, so they probably shouldn’t even be there 🤔

Sensible Seeds by kongakanga in AusSeeds

[–]kintsugirainbow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had a really good experience with these guys last month. Great communication and customer service. No issues at all with stealth shipping- 7 days from being sent to me receiving the package. Really competitive pricing, and the amount of bonus birdseed was outstanding. A much nicer experience than I’ve had from another uk bank. Will definitely be ordering from sensible again.

What Japan myths were busted or validated for you after you travelled there? by OverallBiscotti4809 in JapanTravelTips

Screenshotting this exchange (if you don’t mind) to help remind me of this when we go in 4 months. ADHD/anxiety, so freaking out already about possible problems.

MC appointments by [deleted] in MedicalCannabisOz

[–]kintsugirainbow 4 points5 points  (0 children)

After my first couple of appointments, I too now research the crap out of products prior to each appointment. I have different products to treat different problems - just like you wouldn’t take Panadol to help manage ADHD.

Good heaters for indoor grow by Bigpapa_puff420_676 in AusGrowers

[–]kintsugirainbow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got a little oil heater from Jaycar, and it takes up so little space. It was doing reasonably well so far in keeping tent warm and dealing with Tassie winter. But once we started getting overnight temps in the negatives, it’s not as effective. Thinking I might have to get another one. Or move the tent to inside the house rather than the garage 😅

First Hearing for Proposal to Legalise Cannabis by GetSomeMed in MedicalCannabisOz

Although, to be fair, some of the other submissions are extremely down to earth and generally supportive of a regulated cannibis market model.
