A Doctor’s Thoughts on CBD, THC, and Nootropics

[@tsarmi9864]

I take THC to alter my perception of my chronic pain, and lots of CBD to help me tolerate the psychological effects, and to help with my disagreeable digestive system. I also love how THC boosts my appetite. I have always had a problem with eating, and it's just so practical. I could do with THC being more predictable. I hate that it can cause some really spooky and uncomfortable moments. My other options are pain meds, and I think that would be even worse. I'm afraid of being addicted/dependent on pain killers. Since starting THC with CBD I can get by with just an occasional 325mg Tylenol.

5:55 - the smelly organic compounds in cannabis ( Terpenes/ sesquiterpenes / monoterpenes) help augment the metabolic expression of the heavier more stable cannabinoids ( meroterpinoids) ... the half life of the sesquiterpenes provide a more long lasting form of metabolism for the more fast acting phytocananbinoids ... known as entourage / cannabimimetics

Cbd is a great tool! I have anxiety and depersonalization and if I'm having issues on any given day, Cbd helps me calm down and get level headed. Thc isn't legal where I live, but I think it has great side-effects for so many! Great video!

[@ip6008]

Hey, I also had depersonalization but it was actually caused by being exhausted combined with using canabis. Thc does help me with my migraine, though. Does cbd help you with your depersonalization?

[@bobbiemurphy3211]

@@ip6008 when I smoked thc when I was younger (or the one time I ate an edible), if I intake too much, it can bring on a crazy bad episode. But a little bit is perfectly fine. Cbd does seem to help me a lot, actually. Maybe it's a placebo affect, but I use it in a vase pen, so I'll take a few puffs, and a few minutes later I've calmed down for the most part. I've combined it with grounding techniques and I've learned to manage it with time (mine is generally just caused by high stress, a lot of times its subconscious and I don't even realize it, or it'll be delayed from the traumatic event do it hits me like a freight train). I'm sorry you've had to deal with dp. I've been dealing with it since 16 (I'm 23 now) and up until 6ish months ago, I thought it was just a bad panic attack. Now I know it's a world of difference and I kind of approach them differently. How did/do you manage dp?

[@ip6008]

@@bobbiemurphy3211 I'm pretty fine lately. I quit smoking and that makes everything a lot better (exept my migraine haha). Every now and then I feel unclear when I'm surrounded by a lot of people or/and when I'm very tired. It helps a little if I avoid busy spaces, focus on staying grounded(!!) and visualise a bubble/aura around me. It just makes me so anxious for it to come back and there are almost no people who understand depersonalisation.. (I'm sorry, my English is so bad, I'm a Dutchie 😂)

[@ip6008]

And it's so weird because at first I thought (and panicked) I had psychosis from smoking joints but then I googled and everything about personalisation was just right with the way I felt.

[@bobbiemurphy3211]

@@ip6008 your english is great! that's good that you've found a way to help! And I totally get it, explaining this to people is SO hard. I basically just tell people it feels like everything is fake and like I'm in a dream, but that doesn't sound bad, and for me at least, depersonalization is the scariest thing I've ever been through, even now when I've been dealing with it for this long. I've even been taken to the hospital over it because my mom couldn't calm me down and she was scared. People always think it sounds cool but it's definitely not. Anyway I'm always here if you need someone to talk to about this stuff. I know it's hard to find people who truly understand! Feel free to message me if you ever need to ❤

[@larrytate1657]

Imo THC gives a very intense high, a more intense high than opiates even. It’s less physically dangerous obviously but as far as the high goes, weed can have me tripping, where an opiate would have me relaxing. While maybe for most it’s mostly safe, don’t underestimate THC if you have any pre existing mental health issues or are sensitive to substances.

[@larrytate1657]

I think CBD taken with THC balances out the THC a little.

How/where can I get documented studies on how CBD helps with cancer? Tom MacDonald just release a song called "Cancer" about cancer. I want to shout out about CBD, but I am not a doctor, and I don't have any documented study that I can show people who point out that I am not a doctor and I don't have case studies. If any one that had cancer and used CBD and it helped, please check out Tom MacDonald's video and share your experience with CBD. Watch other peoples reaction to Tom MacDonald's video too.

I used to have small seizures and started smoking weed weekly/monthly. Luckily I went over a year without 1 seizure. Then one night after smoking it I had a bad unconscious seizure. And that happened again a month later, now I’ve stopped smoking it because I’m scared of that happening again and I’m having the small seizures like I used to have before I smoked

[@JacobHayden911]

Why the fuck are you smoking it? Unless you didn't word that right and you said you had A seizure from smoking 25 years AGO. I'm gonna hope to god that that's what you meant. I refuse to believe that someone who has seizures everytime they smoke weed is still doing it 25 years later. It's like how are you alive at that point? xD

LD50 THC= 50,000 to 1 ... that is the therapeutic index of the compound as well = 50:00 to 1 ... CBD is the same compound as THC with one pyran ring difference , plus there are 150 phytocannabinoids we have identified in the plant species and have only researched 11 of those with THC being most researched . I'm not sure where you get your info but Raphael Mechoulam is the leading expert on THC... he claims since 1964 that THC is non toxic / incapable of causing a toxic response . I like to go to the source for my information... less confusion and more truth .

[@cookiearboleda7651]

High dosage of thc can be unsafe. It causes you to be unmotivated and lowers your dopamine levels it can cause memory issues too thats why people have a hard time quitting it also has to do with how high the potency is now than it was 20years ago.. thc also causes you to have the munchies and can cause abdominal problems theirs also proven facts that people that develop marijuana use disorder causes CHS cannabis hyperemesis syndrome .. now I’m saying this for people that abuse it like i did theirs alot of benefits with weed but its not for everyone

I'm a heavy marijuana user, I smoke wax and trees. I wake and bake, with wax and trees. I take big rips on the bong and I'm not stingy when I pack bowls. I smoke before I free dive and after too. I ride my bike a few mikes and do winter sports also. Through it all I smoke. I hope I got my point across with how much I smoke. Now Marijuana in it's pure form with cbd and thc is the best, it can be the cheapest stress you can buy. But if it comes with cbd and thc it's better than the pricier stuff. The taste is what people care for now a days. If you want to go sleep, smoke indica. If you want to stay up, smoke sativa. Oh and me and my heavy smoking pot friends don't have any mental issues, or health problems cus of the marijuana. Experimenting would be the best data you can ever gather. I experiment with lsd and shrooms on an occasion, I found lsd can take away pain even if you broke your shoulder.

Back in the 80s, when prozac first came out, I mentioned to my doctor that It helped with my depression but it also interfered with sex. The psychiatrist said that was not a side effect and it was "all in my head." Now it's a very well known side effect. While I rely heavily on science to make decisions, I wouldn't dismiss the experiences people report on a newer substance. CBD didnt decrease the time to fall asleep for me, but it felt sounder, like the kind of sleep I had as a kid.
