I have major anxiety problems and the only thing that helps me is a couple hits of weed. My husband gets really mad when I smoke and he wants me to get rid of it because he has a step-daughter and he doesn't want to take a chance of losing her. I'm very safe with how I smoke and no one can tell. I'm on all these pills that have horrible side effects from them. I just don't understand why he can't see how much harm the pills are doing to me. What should I do?
keep the shit out of the house, maybe. but a little bit of weed, doesn't seem to me like a big enough deal to get his step-daughter taken away from him anyway?
Yeah but he indicated that he wouldn't want to be with me because his daughter is number 1. I love him so much. I don't want a divorce.
I usually take a walk on the trails but being it's winter I don't have that option and I really don't have anywhere else to smoke it. I'm kind of stuck.
what kind of trails close for the winter? i really don't know how to offer advice to all the "i have to stay married to an idiot" people.
talk to a doctor about it. talk to him about it. are there mmj laws on the books in NJ? edibles might be better for you. frankly, i wouldnt stay with someone who didnt want me to be healthy and happy. sure, sometimes there are compromises to be made, but to be making you suffer chemicals when there is a satisfactory herbal remedy for your anxiety is cruel. i really cant offer good advice to you, i would do anything to help my loved ones solve their pains. he has a step-daughter from a previous marriage? sad to say he came with baggage, not the girl, his mindset. his history. you might seek counseling, though again you wont have much footing if there arent good mmj laws. if you need to talk to someone in your anxiety, i am here for you, and for anyone here. we all suffer in different ways. we should lean on each other.
It's not that they close it's just way too cold and we've been getting rain and snow lately. lol and sorry I fell in love with my husband.:love:
My new therapist that I'm going to see specializes in breathwork and meditation. He sounds much better than the ones I've been seeing!
What kind of pills are these, may I ask? I would say that, especially for anxiety, the good green herb is always better than overprescribed pharmaceuticals. SSRIs like prozac cause murderous and suicidal ideation in many people. 80% of school shooters over the last few years have been on SSRIs and, in general, they tend to disrupt mental functioning. Commonly prescribed atypical antipsychotics like olanzepine and seroquel are the worst. They're like a literal chemical lobotomy and turn your personality into a monotone (sometimes irreparably), ADHD medications are addictive and generally amphetamines, And, last but not least, anxiety medications tend to be highly addictive, self-destructive, memory impairing, alcoholism and GABA-addiction encouraging benzodiazepines. And you know what? Weed does none of that shit. Weed is a happiness inducing, pain reducing, anxiety conquering gift from Jah, while all these medications are pain-causing, mind-numbing, heart-hurting gifts from capitalists. What meds are you on, btw?
it is. it will pay for itself really quickly as well, because you use a lot less weed than a joint and a little less weed than a pipe/bong.
just because they were taking these drugs doesn't mean that the drugs caused them to shoot up a school. i'm sure 80% of them used caffeine as well. i'm not advocating the use of SSRI/SNRI's, but you're using illogical reasoning. correlation does not equal causation. unless you suffer from severe mental illness and experience psychotic breaks, in which case they can help you to live some semblance of a normal life. and unless they cause part of your brain to fall off, i don't think they are literally a chemical lobotomy.
I agree with the magic flight launch box, have one and its amazing But on the other note, i'd try and educate and teach him rather than argue over it, inform him of all the positive effects and how harmless it is and whatnot, we should all know that typical speech by now haha And why is walking in the trails not an option in the winter? don't be a pussy
If you want to lower your anxiety do something physical 4 5 days a week. Walking biking yoga sex you name it, I don't know if you need what you take, seems to be a lot of that going around. But i know you can suffer severe symptoms by quitting it cold turkey at least anti depressants. good luck valerian works but things can interact.
Try everything you can think of to help with your anxiety besides weed and try talking to him about it more. Don't let him convince you to not smoke if that's really all that helps though. You're a grown ass woman. If the pills are causing you harm, maybe talk to the doctor who prescribed them and see if there is something that may be better available. If there are specific things that make you anxious, maybe try having him help you deal with those things as well. I'm not an expert, but maybe this stuff will help or make you think of something else you might be able to try. Good luck!
