I prefer thc to caffeine
A good sativa seems to supply what my brain is missing.
Explain to me how that works
My head is loud with too many thoughts and thc makes it a bit quieter
I always feel like my brain and my body are out of sync. When I used to smoke, it was like the gears suddenly synced up, and everything was running smoothly.
But in the past year or so, it suddenly became ANXIETY: Full steam ahead!
Brains are dumb
I've found sativa in particular can amplify any anxiety I'm having. Used to love it too lol, don't know what happened.
My adhd also goes off the wall though so it's always fascinated me that people use it to manage theirs.
i feel normal on THC. i don’t get couched anymore and haven’t for a long time. when i’m high it’s truly a mild psychoactive period and mostly a realignment of my nerves.
Can I get that without the addiction thank you very much
Have you experienced addiction with THC? I personally haven't and I've used a lot of it. Maybe habitual, nothing like withdrawal symptoms, but I have a specific time of day that using it is even an option. Every body is different though so I'm genuinely curious.
Yeah I have, on multiple occasions.
Been consuming since the age of ~19, sometimes more, sometimes less. When I do consume more, I tend to seclude myself and leave the apartment as little as possible. I just don't feel like socializing and don't have the energy for it. I usually recognize the actual addiction whenever I feel the strong urge to smoke weed, even though I don't really want to in that moment.
The withdrawal symptoms I experience are more like cravings and a grumpy mood, both of which subside rather quickly (few days). But the cravings are tough.
Most time of the year my consumption is within reasonable limits and does not negatively impact my life. I don't even smoke anymore, I've got my vaporizer for that. Weed has always has been my best bet for coping with ADHD symptoms. Shame that it just doesn't play well with my anxiety.
