I dunno about the long-term effects but I can definitely say from experience in the short term that delta-8, while not feeling the same to me as actual weed, and not being my preference, gets the job done if what I'm going for is as described in Acid Raindrops https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1dr1kQDGgRk However I highly recommend separating yourself from your source of it once you use it, because yea it's very easy to go "I need that one more I'm not there yet." Also, all those different "flavors" or whatever if you go to a shop, all those different names feel different just like you'd expect from weed. So if you do go that route, it's worth treating it as though it's genuine. If you're trying to err on the side of caution, I dunno that I would advise using it. It's awfully similar to me. When I say it's not my preference, I do mean that, but I would still treat it as a real drug. signalnoise fucked around with this message at 00:48 on Feb 5, 2022 |

The Walrus posted:DDPM, thanks for that, it's a really interesting post that had some info I wasn't aware of. It will help me, I think. Is there any value in tapering, if I'm able to do that? I'm not, at all, when there is flower or vape pens or anything available to me, but I've got a whole bunch of 1:1 thc:cbd distillate that I've had some success in the past with using to get away from the habitual vape-packing aspect and the 'one more hit to get even higher' compulsion. It might be worthwhile for me to do a 2 week taper process on that stuff potentially. I don't know the exact mechanics of recovery from THC dependence - if they've even been studied yet it's not something I've stumbled across and when I was in school for all my LISAC stuff (which I don't actively do/pursue anymore) weed was still not even medicinally legal in most of the US and no one acknowledged that having a 'weed problem' was possible. From a general substance counseling standpoint there are some drugs you should ALWAYS taper (benzos, barbituates and alcohol can literally kill a serious addict from cold turkey withdrawal) but other than that it's kind of just figuring out what works best for you re: taper vs. cold turkey. This is veering away from fact now into just my opinion/gut feeling/guess but it seems to me like the more powerful the addictive effect/the more dependent you are the less effective tapering is. Nicotine for example is notoriously much easier to quit going cold turkey. For a large percentage of people nicotine replacement like gum or lozenges or whatever works, but for the majority it makes it harder to quit. Nicotine is of course one of the most addictive substances by volume (and likely one of the most deadly but we ingest it in extremely low volume). Opioid Replacement Therapy (methadone, suboxone, etc) is really controversial and doesn't always help - and everyone I know who has been in it loving hates it - but for a lot of people it's the only thing that's close enough to make them not feel like they need to go get high When I was actually going to school for this stuff there was zero literature on weed dependence because it just wasn't a thing anyone acknowledged yet or that many people experienced so  but I'm guessing (based on my own experiences with being dependent on weed as a 24/7 smoker for over a decade) weed is on the lower end of the addiction strength scale and tapering is what helped me settle it down. I'm guessing the most important part in getting over it is just creating some time each day where you're not high, even if it's not all day long. Smoking lower volumes but still smoking 24/7 is probably not super effective because it won't be 'bad enough' for your brain to say 'gently caress this, I'm making my own' again.To quote the immortal Murs, "I didn't smoke weed so I could feel the high, I smoked so I didn't have to feel the low" - that's what helped me cut back. I spent some time not letting myself smoke to get high, and only letting myself smoke (a small amount) when I was unbearably nauseous or miserable. And I need to do that again especially after the last 2 pandemic-years where I have been absurdly high 24/7. deep dish peat moss fucked around with this message at 01:04 on Feb 5, 2022 |

Out of all the entertainer deaths that came and went during covid so far double k is the only one that I really felt bad about I still haven't listened to Sincerely, the P much and I feel like once I've finished that, it's over. They're one of my favorite groups of all time, definitely my favorite rap group and I felt so bad for thes

The CBD store near me has these 10mg delta 9 gummies that are totally legit. Every now and then I'll give some other thing a shot and it's a complete waste of money, but these things are legit. I think they're legal because they're "hemp derived" Not stoned right now though because I gotta go coach at a big wrestling tournament tomorrow. Waking up at 4:30, the bus leaves at 6AM. One of my seniors finally got it to "click" after 3 years of struggling and has been on a tear. he's the most polite, respectful, hard working kid I've ever met and I really hope he gets a medal.

Just woke up. Had some crazy dreams like always. My nephew is coming over to sleep over tonight. He just turned 21 but thankfully he's not a drinker at all. My sister (his mom) was adopted so he doesn't have our alcoholic blood. We're going to play Gloomhaven: Jaws of the Lion, a fantasy based board game. I bought it a while back but it's pretty complicated. And they made it as an easier to play version of the regular Gloomhaven game. I watched a 40 minute How to Play video last night and still don't get it all but it looks fun. Standard dungeon crawl type game. I have a lot of homework to do before he gets here. It's due tonight.

Almost done with my stair banister rails. Just stuck on the newel post caps, and then cleaned most of the house for a father in law visit, that was very short.   Ignore every other aspect of the photos it's the stairs and stair rail we are proud of lol. Another 10 years my kid will be a senior and we'll be done with the remodel!!!! Edit: for those interested, every ballister(I think that's the term for the metal bars pictured) has a hole cut, at 40 degrees in the rail, and in the steps drilled, then chiseled into a square. I was able to get every hole drilled, each ballister cut to it's individual length, and the bannisters bolted down in a weekend. Still need to apply wood filler to the holes in the rail, touch up the stain, and sand and we'll be on to drywall in the guest room. interwhat fucked around with this message at 22:36 on Feb 5, 2022 |
