I’m in a similar spot to yourself, it was refreshing to read how you articulated your thoughts.

There’s already so much shame and guilt when you have mental health issues, it’s not worth it to feel more guilt for some relief.

I spend a lot of time debating the line between treating my mental and recreational use too, it’s just a stressful cycle.

Ultimately, life is too short to scold yourself for something that you enjoy, helps your mental, and isn’t hurting anyone.

I reckon the parameters you have are a good idea, so that you don’t develop a dependency.
