[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Smoking anything isn't "normal". It may be more common now than it used to be, but it's not a 'normal' thing to put in your body. Long-term cannabis use will lead to withdrawal symptoms (yes, even from your "gummy").

This is so tiresome because it's absolutely false.

I am the poster above who said that I take a gummy and it helps me with sleep and back pain. The alternative is to inject a steroid into my back every three months, causing bone loss or take opioids. Sure, it makes you feel better because a doctor prescribed it, but I can guarantee that both of those are worse than taking a gummy.

This non-logic take is so tiresome because it's uneducated crap. Your "gummy" works, sure. If it didn't do something useful, nobody would buy them. Thing is, if you're taking a nightly "gummy", you're developing a tolerance. Pretty soon 5mg won't cut it, and you'll go up to 10mg/2 'gummies', whatever. And then that won't work so it'll be 15. And then you'll need to stop, probably for something simple like dental work or travel, and you'll flip the eff out because your system, which is now habituated to THC/cannabinoid use, won't have its daily dose. It will be then, when you've got fullblown withdrawal symptoms, that you'll remember that annoying post on the forum that tried to warn your obstinate ass about the side-effects of regular cannabis use (which are proven, btw; this is information you could look up, if you wanted it).

“Full blown withdrawal symptoms” meaning a background craving similar to how I feel about chocolate cake or eating meat? Oh nooooo what ever shall I do? [/quote]

Okay, lil buddy. It's like that until it's not. If it's not that for you yet, cool. Maybe stop for 6 months, since you can and all, and just see what happens.[/quote]

Been there done that and it is like junk food cravings at first but go longer and you'll wonder why you even bothered with it. It really doesn't have those awful withdrawals you might imagine, nor does it snowball with time. If anything once you're a couple of weeks to a month off, it will only be desirable after really high stress events like hosting a big family gathering or some work conflict, you'll want it to unwind, but again, its not the kind of withdrawal you might be thinking of.
It is likely a different experience for others if they lack coping mechanisms or their environment has social pressures to use it.[/quote]
I'll add that alcohol is less pleasurable to me; however, it is MUCH harder to quit completely due to cravings and social pressures.

Don’t try to convince that fool. He/she thinks that just because big pharma sold him something, it has to be so much better.

She actually did the "medical cannabis is better than big pharma" route until realizing that there really aren't any pain meds that come without consequences. But, again, go off.

This is how I know some of you are either really, really dumb or completely mentally ill.

Dumb is using drugs as an adult. It’s also tied to mental illness most of the time in the form of being unable to constructively cope with life. Some of these losers probably used their time to day drink or get high on Sunday instead of shoveling themselves out.

Yeah go eff yourself. You desperately need meds. You’re not coping even with a single disagreement much less life.

Your need to lash out like this suggests your "gummies" aren't working quite as well as you claim
