Who smokes?

I vape which I hate and try not to do! Smoking weed is the only comfort I’ve found in life besides like psychedelic’s which I take every so often to keep my depression at bay. Ketamine helps me disassociate from time to time but I cannot afford like Mindbloom and stuff. When I don’t have weed to smoke my life sucks because I do not enjoy it. Does anyone feel anything similar to this. I’ve taken adderall once and I take a addyall (aderall substitute) sometimes but that stuff doesn’t help me feel normal I just feel A LITTLE. better…. Thinking of trying to microdose with shrooms to help combat crippling anxiety and depression that never really goes away. I cause so many problems by just being myself that it hurts. The only escape that works is smoking weed and feeling normal for a few hours and being able to think clearly. I’d love to hear how you guys cope!

I was heavily dependant on weed (flower/ vape) for a good 6 years maybe - and my use dropped significantly dropped when I moved to a living situation where I felt safer and more at ease. That and sativa started driving my anxiety through the roof lol. Unsure how yours is but it could be worth taking a look at your home environment (who do you live with/ near / are there certain inconveniences that make it unbearable). I also make sure now that I mostly consume cbd when I do want to use weed, for the caaalm ya know? If you haven't tried already, I like CANN - drinkable edibles that come in high cbd ratios. It's my beer now since alcohol be a hella bad mix w my meds. Not sure it does much for the depression but it soothes the anxiety a ton

I smoked daily for years (partially for pain/mood and partially because I just like it). I’ve had several times that I felt like I was using cannabis to escape and for me that’s a yellow flag. Being able to use talk therapy, EMDR & EFT therapies and finding proper treatment for my ADHD has been SO helpful 🙌🏼 Look up EMDR & EFT (scientifically proven). They are simple things you can do at home (or with a therapist) that can help you work through years of things, in a few sessions verses years of talk therapy. I personally like a combo. When I get negative thoughts about something (myself, my day, work, relationship, etc..) I stop and state 3 positives about that thing and keep it moving 😊 Meditation and mindfulness breathing has also helped me quite a bit 🥰 You’ve got this and you can make it through it!! 🫶🏼

Only here to say My naturopath recommends everyone take HCL with meals if they smoked because it’s been found to lower stomach acid which can lead to lots of problems including gallbladder, diabetes, etc. So if you smoke, take HCL to combat low stomach acid!

I started microdosing a year ago after talking to my therapist. And for me personally it helped. I started out doing it 3-4 days a week for the first month and then slowly started stepping down. Now I just do it every once and awhile when my anxiety and depression symptoms bubble up. It gives my brain a break from the noise and makes me process and manage things better. If you take enough to feel it right away then you’re taking to much. Microdosing works by taking enough for the mental health benefits but not enough for you to feel like you have taken mushrooms. There’s a happy medium that you have to find.
