better living thru chemistry. i thank those men in the white lab coats every day for making stuff to help me cope with life.

i'm not saying they are bad. i'm saying if i can catch a buzz off it, i can't be trusted with it. i'm prone to test my limits.

i use some drugs for my heart. if anything, i under-use them.

and i'm glad that you have something that helps, by all means! that is a good thing!!!

 

[Khala]

not much. 69 and rain sounds wonderful when it's 9 and snowing. i can't even make myself go running in this. (getting fat as we speak)

Living up here in the frozen north is why I stopped running.

Hello, yoga mat...

I spent the last 17 years of my working life, before I retired, with Texas Department of Criminal Justice ( not a guard ) .
I hate what drug misuse does to people & thier families. Yes, they are good when used properly & certainly needed by many. Just wish there was a way to keep them from ruining so many lives. I don't have any answers, just wishes.

the 2 are separate issues, aren't they?

i got turned down by a doctor for my DOT card, so i can't drive commercially anymore. she said that i needed to be cleared by a cardiologist, which made sense, but that i'd also have to get a c-pap mask. that made no sense to me whatsoever.

i'm still confused about it. they only way i know to get a long night sleep is weed. and i don't smoke (won't smoke...i hope, i hope) anymore. the Dr also said that the apnea was dangerous because of my heart condition.

do those masks really work?

i know i felt better when i worked 2nd shift, which i did many years. 1st shift was kind of tough.

but if i worked 2nd shift, i'd want to smoke some herb...

Yep, two separate issues. I'm also manic depressive, without good medication I either sleep too much or sleep too little. I seem to be at a happy balance for now. Although I shoot myself in the foot every weekend by either napping or staying up really late.

I don't understand why you'd have to get a CPAP either. Sleep apnea can lead to heart problems yes, but idk why you'd need one if you don't have sleep apnea.

The masks do work, but there is a catch. IF you can sleep with it on. I take mine off constantly subconsciously when I sleep. If I don't sleep with it on, my sleep gets degraded and I have never reached the REM cycle without it.

I'm with you on the herbage, but I got busted for it and am on probation until February. I get submitted to random drug screens. The upside is it's taught me to face the real pressing issues without "self medicating", so over the last couple months a lot has been addressed. I'll still toke time from to time once I get off probation, but not a regular thing like before. I will be in the market for a new job and will need to be drug tested for it surely, and my career is more important than pot. I do not like my current job, it only makes sense to put myself in the best possible position.

Honestly, I miss a strong whiskey and Coke more than I do the herb right now. Not saying it's better, but just what I would prefer to have right at this moment in time!

I often think I should be medicated, but I haven't been to the Dr in years.

I get really angry sometimes. I justify it in my head as erosion of patience, but it's just an excuse.

I'm pretty much a fraud.

 

[FearTX]

I was once young and spry with an appetite for the mind altering. Unfortunately I had to grow up a little while the kids were growing up. I just do not have the energy to get high these days

**Looks back wistfully to 80's era dance clubs and the beginning of the designer movement**

 

[diggyb]

and just for the record that stuff chills me the out.

may i suggest a punching bag? a non-living one, preferably. your anger needs an outlet. i lived with men who had anger issues who took it out on me. no fun.

oh, vaping strawberry shortcake with peanut butter cup.

 

[thesandman]

Good afternoon friends I'm vamping bubblegum and I'm sure surprised how much it tastes like authentic bubblegum

This.

I did martial arts as an angry ...... off teen. Stuck with it for 10 years just with one art, got my black belt in it. That parleed into interests in other arts too. It completely changed who I am.

 

[thesandman]

Diggy I'm bipolar and have anger issues as we'll and the meds help. I'm not saying you need meds but if you're open to the idea it may be an option.

oh, i DO have sleep apnea. i just don't understand the level of concern about it.

i live in Washington state, they made weed legal. my god-daughter was always trying to get me to smoke again. i haven't heard from her in a month, though. might be a good thing, i was thinking of going ahead with it.

thanks for talking about this stuff and i wish you the best of luck dealing with your issues!

I've never found any relief from a punching bag. I do work out and run. Honestly, I do it as much for stress-relief as for anything else.

The biggest victim of my anger is my blood-pressure. I've never assaulted anybody who wasn't in the process of assaulting somebody else.

Thanks sandman - if I do eventually see a dr. again - that will be something we talk about.

My understanding is that sleep apnea can cause severe heart problems and lead to death via heart attack.

Dr. Oz just put on his "worst list of 2013" , ecigs. Hmm, he says we are vaping anti-freeze. He also says they are marketed towards middle school age children with flavors of bubblegum and cola. Well, nobody told me is was illegal as an adult to like bubblegum or cola! and i am sooooo tired of the anti freeze line...........
