  1. I still use pain meds with marijuana and i also have a medical condition that can't be fixed. It does not work and delicate chronic pain it takes your mind off of it. Pills and weed both don't make me not hurt but I am in a ton of pain. So really depends on your tolerance also

  2. The era of depression is arriving, I smoked oils for 2 straight months chronically day and night and I tell ya that anxiety they love barely mentioning is no fucking joke. Compared to other drugs with worse withdrawals it's not that bad, but still its better to just not smoke if you dont need it. All you think about is being high to be able to get through the day, you do gain a very high tolerance, it would take about 5 or more solid 7 second pulls and holding it in for as long as I could just to get a buzz and then that makes you want to quit cus it feels pointless and not being on it makes you feel so depressed because you've been on it for so long your body has become used to having it. First day I quit I had cold sweats, I had to keep taking deep breaths to calm myself down because I kept having an anxiety attack, my brain felt like it was moving a mile a minute, I had to take a fucking tylenol to stop banging my head on the wall from that numbing pain. It took 3 days before I finally felt like I wasn't anxious and felt how I did when I wasnt smoking for the most part. It feels so good not doing it because you immediately remember how productive you actually were. Make sure you quit slowly if you do because it suckssss quitting out of the blue. I recommend smoke with friends for a good time but stay sober on your own time

  3. I lost my leg in Afghanistan and I have been struggling to get off of Dilaudid for about 8 months now. I have had people suggest trying weed but I don't want to lose​ my right to conceal carry.
