I smoke cigarettes. Because they're fucking addictive and it's hard af to quit.
I smoke weed because it stops me getting anxiety and also makes my thoughts slow down and become quieter so it's not like a crowded room full of people having different conversations talking over each other.
I have drank alcohol, and very rarely still do, but I don't like being drunk. Just like the taste of a white russian or margarita once in a blue moon.
On the point of why you take weed. Have you been checked out for adhd?
Yes. I have ADHD. And BPD. And ASD.
Are you not traditionally medicated for them or is it that you find weed works better instead of or as well as?
I actually had a prescription for it before it was recreationally legal here.
Don't worry, I don't smoke but I have my own addiction to sodas lol, I get it (sort of)
Did/does cannabis help with nicotine cravings? It helped a ton coming down off fent, but that's a different pathway in the brain.
