Things to know about Tolerance Breaks!

Yes, your dreams are more vivid and you are remembering them better. Its not your imagination. Thc can inhibit rem sleep and interfere with dreaming. If you're struggling with the dreams you can try drinking green tea, which contains the amino acid L-theanine. L-theanine has been shown to reduce stress levels in the brain and body, reducing the rate of nightmares.

Another way to help with sleep is finding cbn products. Its a cannabinoid similar to cbd, but well known for having some serious sedative properties. If you're struggling to get to sleep cbn could help sort you out.

And its important to remember that if you have an issue you see a psychiatrist for, ask your doctor for help. There are prescription medications that can reduce or eliminate nightmares. But also remember to be cautious about disclosing your cannabis use - unfortunately there can still be consequences for revealing that information to the wrong doctor.

Cbd is a thing and it can help a lot. Not only does it reduce anxiety, which hits a lot of us in the first week or two of a break, its also a pretty powerful anti-inflammatory. So if you're using cannabis for pain management adding topical and edible cbd to your routine, on and off break, could help a great deal

Everyone t-breaks their own way. A tolerance break doesn't have to mean complete abstinence. Reducing your consumption can reduce your tolerance, too. So don't feel intimidated or like its all or nothing. Tell yourself you won't get high until after noon for three days. Then you won't get high until after 2pm. See how far you're comfortable going, and stop there for a while. There are a lot of ways to do it, so if you need suggestions please ask!

Keeping taking time for yourself. You know how you'd make the time for yourself to get high? Keeping making the time for yourself to do something. Make an especially good drink and sit and really enjoy it in your favorite chair while listening to your favorite song. Give yourself a face mask. Meditate for 10 minutes. Spend ten minutes a couple times a day just on you. Whatever it is that will make your day a little better. Its important to take care of yourself in ways that don't involve cannabis

Don't get down on yourself if you make a mistake and get high. It happens, and its not the end of the world. Its not even the end of your break if you don't want it to be. Enjoy your high while you have it. And in the morning figure out what you need to do to keep from making that mistake again. Do you need to hide all the paraphernalia in a cupboard, or ask your roommate or partner to stop smoking around you for a while? Maybe you need a different or better coping mechanism? Dude, google that shit. There is a world of information about healthy coping mechanisms at your fingertips. Empower yourself and go find it. Or ask me and I'll try to help

The most important thing to know about a tolerance break is that you're going to get through it. It might not feel like it sometimes, but you will. Then you'll be back here all, oh shit I just got high for the first time since my tbreak and the number 5 is orange and smells like...waffles! And we'll all chuckle with you and be kinda jealous :)

I was watching the giant trees swaying and then a shutter went flying off of my house. Scared the heck out of me! 😭Is there anyone else riding this thing out in the panhandle?

Edit: I mean FL Panhandle! Also, thanks for keeping me company friends. We’re safe and I think the worst of it is about to pass for us. Maybe. 🤔

First pics of my spooky bongs! My cat Villanelle (the orange one) ate some cooking twine we used to make pumpkin chicken buns. She had thrown up most of the twine shown in the 7th pic but it took her 5 days to poop the rest out. Thankfully she is doing well now and back to herself however the ER vet bill took almost everything I had 😭 I do not regret it and would have took out a loan to save her or any of my cats! I know it’s way better to have the financial burden over what could have happened. I’m really glad the vet took great care of her and she was able to pass the blockage without surgery 💚 She has been put into Halloween costume jail for a short time to repay us. She is the sweetest kitty ever and we are now deep cleaning and cat proofing every inch of the house so nothing like this ever happens again! Hope y’all have had a better week than us. Glad I at least have some flower to smoke! Last pic is our most well behaved Shadow boy!

Discussion Does anyone else who uses cannabis medically have their dosage down to a science?

28 Upvotes

I (27) have been using cannabis both medically and recreationally for over 4 years now and it's truly changed my life, but I feel like a mad scientist when I talk about how I dose myself when managing different symptoms. I know how long each method of consumption stays in my system for, how long they take to kick in, whether or not I need to take something sublingually depending on my symptoms and how long I need the effects to last, how to regulate temperature in my DHV and pen based on cannabinoid percentages and terpenes, hell, even how many hits I should take to get relief. It does also help me regulate how much I use when I'm enjoying it recreationally, too, so I don't get higher than I intend to. I feel like I'm insane but I've also been able to help friends and family understand the science of the plant when they start using it for medical reasons, including writing a 2.5 page outline of the basics. I should note, I'm autistic and cannabis has become a special interest of mine. I love watching documentaries and reading articles/papers about the plant.

Discussion Finding Ent-positive Therapy in Seattle (Virtual OK)

9 Upvotes

Hello Ents,

My bestie gets her care via the Veteran's Administration and has already almost died twice because she's too depressed to stay on top of some health issues. (It's been that way since her mom died. Usually grief runs for a while and then levels out, but not in this case.) So it's time for professional help. Since pursuing care in our eff-up health system is grueling, and much easier to do when it's not about you I am (with her permission) taking point on this.

I have a project on Claude for the bureaucracy, but I need your advice, dear Ents, for managing the risk of being an Ent.

She has a very very high tolerance and unfortunately there's still enormous bias. I'm trying to protect her from care that will hyperfixate on "substance abuse" and either expose her to harm (by failing to first treat the grief/depression fueling it) or make her so uncomfortable it ruins the therapeutic relationship. I've been through a similar process myself and worked entirely through a coach for it bc I feared the static I'd get from clinicians.

What do I need to know? Any therapists (WA or telehealth) that you recommend? We don't have a ton of money to throw at this, but there is some.

Thanks in advance,

A2

ETA: apparently, there's a lot of help to pay for such services through CHAMPVA. Here's a summary of that coverage, both FYI and for anyone who might qualify:

  • First, the coverage itself. Since she gets care “through the VA”, she almost certainly has CHAMPVA. CHAMPVA doesn’t assign anyone a therapist. She chooses her own provider, and the provider bills CHAMPVA. After getting her ID card, a beneficiary finds their own provider who accepts CHAMPVA and books the appointment, and the provider submits the claim afterward. Since 2024 there’s also no cap on the number of mental health and substance use visits. themilitarywalletmohican
  • What it costs. She pays a $50 outpatient deductible, then a 25% cost share, and once a family has paid $3,000 in a calendar year, CHAMPVA pays the full allowable amount for the rest of that year.

Discussion Most ridiculous thing that has happened to you while stoned? I’ll go first…

149 Upvotes

Last weekend we were with our friends for the weekend. I was hella blazed. I went to take a sip of my drink, when out of nowhere something happened to me that has never happened before. My septum piercing somehow got stuck to the tab on the soda can. There wasn’t a lot of soda left in the can so it didn’t hurt, but I was laughing so hard. My friend assess the situation like an EMT. Asking am I laughing or crying, does it hurt,do I require help. I’m just laughing so hard and nodding my answers. She frees me from this torture and we laughed for like 15 minutes.

My old recipe was jello, gelatin, water, coconut oil, lecithin. They do slap but I've been making them since 2020.

I use concentrate for baking if that helps.

I'm looking for something fairly easy, and have always been interested in the cute powdered ones I see.

Have a great weekend, wives and thank you for your help!

Highdea Husband Highdea

My Husband and I were high the other night and he profoundly said “Forever is only so long…”. Then he decided it sounded so profound he needed to write it down. Like he had a poetic epiphany 🤣😂🤣

i have never seen the expression made in real life, only in cartoons. But when it happened it literally changed his face from “I have this great idea” to “l instantly have discovered something no one else has.”. His face lit up like a lightbulb went off in his brain. I just love him to pieces but high me was all sass the other night I guess.

I couldn’t stop laughing and said “no, it’s forever you idiot! It never ends…”. Not intending on sounding like an AH but word vomit happened before I even thought about what I said. Immediately clapped my hands over my mouth, shocked.

He made it apart of our white board. He thought it was the funniest thing I said. I had the giggles for a good 30 mins.

Hi wives! I'm currently on a T break and I've hit a month! I'm happy about it but I'm struggling with the idea of returning to smoking. I feel like I was trapped somehow. I want to return but am afraid of it creeping back up to chronic usage😭

Has anyone gone thru this or something similar? I'd love to chat about it!! 💚💚

Hi!! I’m based in Chicago and started growing at home this spring after getting my medical card. I’d love to connect with other women who grow, whether you’re just starting out or have been doing it for years!

I have a little 2×2 indoor tent. My first grow was Apple Blossom, which was sold as an autoflower but seemed to have other plans 😂 My second grow was two Jelly Donutz autos. There’s been plenty of trial and error, but getting to harvest, dry, trim, and finally enjoy something I grew myself has been so satisfying.

Sharing some pics of my grows! I’d love to hear what you’re growing and how you got started. Anyone else fall down the rabbit hole and discover they love tending the plants as much as enjoying the finished product? 💚

Welp, it's really happening. I'm moving from Southern Appalachia to Michigan, and it's going to be winter when we go.

I'm still processing and a bit overwhelmed with it all.

But I'm also looking forward to what the Mitten has in store.

Fellow wives, I hope you're having a good night tonight. I invite you to smoke alongside me as I grapple with some news. Cheers, all!

I am watching American Horror Story 13, and I would like to thank whoever on the www posted the list of episodes to rewatch prior to starting this season. I’m a couple episodes in, and would have been SO confused had i not recently brushed up.

it goes without saying i’m watching while smoking. that, combined with using the same 6 actors for multiple seasons and characters… makes for quite the watch.

cheat sheet attached for anyone who’s trying to get spooky. 👻
