So i've given THC vaping a try after it being recommended by a friend. Not something I ever thought I'd be into. Got to admit it's working absolute wonders for me. Don't use it all the time, just when I'm particularly struggling to sleep. A few breaths and 10 minutes later I'm chilled, relaxed and fall asleep in minutes. And I sleep like a baby as well. Only downside is a few mental dreams, but it's a small price to pay Somebody I know tried everything to help them sleep and nothing worked. Eventually she got some THC oil. A few drop and she said she sleeps like a baby. She’s going to get me some. Do you feel well rested ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect the UK will be the last country in the western world to legalise cannabis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

veloman Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 Doesn't that THC oil increase your appetite and thus cause you to put on weight ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean they are very addactive and once hooked that is your life as you know it flushed down the toilet.So what I can`t get my head around is that when a person is first offered horoine or coke, why don`t they just say, no thanks I like my life as it is.Why do they even try it knowing that the rest of their life is going to be focused on getting enough money for their next hit and nothing else ? The allure of it is irresistible to some people. The forbidden, illicit nature of it is attractive to them. Just like alcohol, there is the social aspect as well. The rituals involved, the subculture. It can be enticing. When you're young you also think nothing can hurt you, so why not have a dabble. I dabbled in cocaine for a few years in my 20s. I was a fiend while doing it, but never craved it when not doing it. It made me drink more and chain smoke cigarettes, so I always felt like shit the next day. It was a weekend thing. Eventually I just got sick of feeling like shit. I actually don't think cocaine is as bad as itsmade out to be. It's a stimulant derived from a plant. It should be legal, controlled for purity and taxed. Everything in moderation, even heroin ( which I never did). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could argue that they aren't operating at 100% but that's their prerogative at the end of the day.. Looking at something based on its problematic users doesn't really give a fair or balanced picture. You can look at gambling addicts, alcoholics, clinically obese people as having a problem as well but we don't try and take away their drug, we just accept that the majority use it correctly and offer help if people can't. I'm not sure why we cant do that with drugs as well. Criminalising people for it is pointless and its a war that will never be won. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In response to your reply.I often wonder why society is so down on cigarette smoking.I mean if you compare the problems caused by smoking and compare them to alcahol.Alcohol causes much more problems,yet everyone gets down on smoking.

Smoking a cigarette will fill your body with far more, and more dangerous, chemicals than drinking will. And it has the additional problem of being far more addictive. Neither is good, but cigarettes will put you in the grave more effectively than booze. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheepyvillian Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 I think Johnny Depp made a poignant remark in his court case when asked who is addictions had been a problem to. No one but myself. The only person I have abused is myself. I hear you, Johnny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
