As far as I know CBD does almost nothing unless it's interacting with THC or other cannabinoids, but I'm not versed in the way each one is classified. Weed as a whole though is definitely not a depressant. From the hip, it speeds up your heart, can cause hallucinations, and makes you like the jazz music. That covers all the categories Inspector Hound fucked around with this message at 12:26 on Aug 29, 2022 |

I smoke weed every day, I have never taken a t-break, I have dental anxiety and 100mg of straight CBD isolate powder under my tongue chills me out to sit in the chair as well as anything on earth that isn't a benzo. Possibly just by kicking some of the THC off my anxiety receptors, but it works great anyway and I can definitely feel it working

It makes me bad but I haven't done double blind studies to figure out if it's the CBD or whatever carrier it's in that makes me feel slightly shittier than I did before I took it. I do know for sure that a 1:1 CBD pen is a useful thing to keep around if you or someone else gets too high, I don't need science for that.

I got some CBD weed at home, it stinks to smoke it, and it doesn't affect me in any way shape or form. It reminds me of this one time as a kid we smoked chamomile tea (straight rolled it up in rolling paper)...it did nothing whatsoever but tasted kind of nice.

Carth Dookie posted:CBD is great for my back pain. Ehhhhhhh. I have 3 lumbar discs that are pretty much trash, 3 degenerative diseases in my lower back (sacroiliitis, spinal stenosis, degen disc) and sciatica that has made half my right leg numb, for some 17 years now. Thanks Army. I haven't found CBD to do much. Maybe because it's not all inflammation related (sacroiliitis is), and more nerve problems than anything. Weed in general is a great distraction from it, but it's not doing much beyond that for me.

Thought of fuctifino last night as I vaped a whole capsule of prescription weed in front of a police officer at a local psychadelic festival and watched CLT DRP play. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KvkGNUoyvGI LifeSunDeath posted:I got some CBD weed at home, it stinks to smoke it, and it doesn't affect me in any way shape or form.

I had some cbd weed before I got my medical, it actually smelled great, I think it was a Wedding Cake strain. I tried it straight, vaped and smoked, and also cut it with what illicit weed I could get to stretch it. When you havent had any 'real' weed for a while it will definitely stick you to the sofa and take the edge off Life, but as soon as you have some actual weed it will probably do gently caress all for you.

Sunk Dunk posted:hey armchair doctors You are not a bad person if you start again my dude! I have adhd/anxiety/bipolar and weed helps me a ton, even with depression. Weed seems to cut back on how harsh I am to myself, which makes it easier to point out that I'm depressed and start making changes to fix that. Before I started smoking, a lot of my depressive cycles would spiral and I'd end up in a more dark place because I wasn't being compassionate to myself. Weed helped my brain be more compassionate to itself and has definitely made my lows less "low"

I think a lot of the problem with CBD is that for most things, with a fast ROA, you're still going to want 100-200mg for minor effects, and for oral you'd want 2-3x that and it's not going to be very helpful for a lot of things because it will come on slow like any weed edibles. And most OTC edibles/tinctures are just not strong enough, nor is the cbd weed, to get real effects from the amounts most people end up using. If anyone really wants to put it through its paces I'd say get a gram of cbd isolate powder for $10-15 from a site like phytodabs, eyeball 100-200mg and throw it under your tongue. And still, you're looking for mild effects at best. Definitely less effective than ibuprofen.

Carth Dookie posted:Yeah there's my back pain, and then theres your BACK PAIN. Admittedly, the sacroiliitis is barely detectable and noteworthy anymore. Years ago when I was last in a VA ER and had an MRI, the scans showed little going on with my SI joints. Doc wouldn't agree that weed was probably why, but acknowledged it may play a role. When I dry out, the stiffness and inflammation ratchet way up. Something like 7% of my unit was diagnosed with sacroiliitis after an Iraq deployment. No one knows why. I suspect brucella. Iraq had a major brucellosis outbreak in the 90s, largely a livestock disease, but camels are carriers too. Spent a week sick as hell, generic troop clinic treatment of Z pack and ibuprofen. A few months later, discs started tearing and herniating. I should probably go get tested for ankylosing spondylitis. Iirc there are links between it and brucella. Won't bump my disability any higher, but it would be good to know.

SO you're saying to get an effect from CBD I need to take an >LD50 dose, and even then it's like advil...well I would for science that's for sure.

But yeah I don't trust much of what I read right now because the science is still being scienced. My whole argument is that there's no harm in giving it a shot as long as you're buying from a tested, trusted source.

I've gotten injured a bunch over the last decade and ngl, weed doesn't help with pain for me, but it does make my life considerably more tolerable. Ultimately I only need weed at night because I can't let myself go to bed without anxiety unless I have SOMETHING, and weed is MY DRUG, and I can do without all the other things if I have it. But drat if I don't have weed, I get up to some poo poo trying to get to bed. I've taken some heroic doses of various herbs and supplements, and OTC drugs and then some harder poo poo when I've had it...it all sucks, and weed is amazing, and really it's the only drug humanity needs for generalized shittiness. Also, since the beginning of pandemic I quit drinking and went back to weed after about a year off (cause I wanted to finally act professional but became an alchy instead), it's been years now totally alcohol free!

Bombing 1:1 CBD:THC tincture after getting 5 teeth extracted was a pro-level move and made recovery infinitely more tolerable. Absolutely helped with the inflammation alongside ibuprofen, idk if it lessened the pain but it made it less noticeable

NSAIDs don't seem to effect my GI. The otc 220mg tend to squash most of my inflammation problems, but I have prescribed 500mg laying around somewhere. Now neurontin/gabapentin, that's the devil to me. Really hosed up my light sensitivity that I still deal with 16 years later.

Naproxen is great for me, too (but I don’t take it every day). Ibuprofen messes my stomach up immediately though while providing little relief. My doctor says it’s the opposite for him. Go figure. More on topic, personally I’ve been finding lately that mixing CBD and THC is the Way To Go, whether it’s flower, tincture, or edibles. I’m usually focused more on the pain relief than the getting high part though.
