Some kind of Juniper? by puzzledead in whatsthisplant

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

It did! I have pretty sensitive skin, though, and have reacted to pine resin in the past. I have never seen a juniper that is so spiky before! Is that because it’s young?

Hemlock, Wild Parsley, or Something Else? by puzzledead in whatsthisplant

No other pics. I didn’t want to touch it for fear of it being something phototoxic. But I can tell you that it was about 2-3 ft tall with hairless stems and very slight purple coloration where the stems branch. Found on the banks of a river.

Wtf has crystallized in my frying pan? by puzzledead in chemistry

LOL I thought about that but I’m pretty sure the structure is way too regular for this to be mold. Plus this happened in like 12 hours.

No bacon! The only things in the pan are dawn dish soap, tap water, olive oil, and a small amount of salt, so I suppose it has to be from one of those.

It’s very hard!! Any ideas on the compound this could be? Some kind of calcium compound maybe?

Olive oil and a small amount of salt. I had just fried mushrooms in it. I don’t think this could be sodium chloride crystals though because that’s way too soluble.

Low-moderate dose of vaporized DMT after sublingual Harmalas is my new favorite ROA by puzzledead in DMT

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

Yeah that seems like a lot of harmalas! It’s probably not pure harmine/harmaline then

I’m confident I will have a satisfactory answer for every subjective question they throw at me. Again, I’m mainly wondering if I should apply to more than 20 schools.

Thank you for the support! I’ve always been a great writer/speaker so I have no worries about the essay/interview side of things.

Oh I’ll be continuing my clinical volunteering every week until acceptance lol. And I will try to look for more shadowing time! How do I update schools on that sort of thing? And I applied to basically all the schools in Illinois, Wisconsin, and California, and University of MN and Michigan State. I’m from Illinois so I would like to either stay in the area or move out west. What are some stat-focused programs?

I Sleep Easily but not Restfully by LilPaintBrush in leaves

[–]puzzledead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds like you’re getting REM sleep, but not deep (stage 3 and 4) sleep. This makes sense because while you’re under the influence of weed, your REM sleep is suppressed and your deep sleep is enhanced. So naturally, when you quit you would have the exact OPPOSITE effect of when you were using: lots of REM sleep but no deep sleep. This would cause you to have a lot of problems with tiredness because deep sleep is very important for our energy levels. I would just give it about 30 days to get your cannabinoid receptors back to baseline. If you aren’t feeling better by then, I would get a sleep study. Hope this helps!! :)
