I'm wondering if I have a weed problem. I started taking weed to help my depression then after a while I take it every day. Usually edibles and vaping sometimes just vaping.
And I've been taking T breaks and it seems like when I'm on a break everything is horrible life sucks and it makes it hard to be on a t break. So I maybe don't take it for a day or two each month. I keep saying I'm on a T break but I never really am.
All I do is get stoned, sometimes with my friends, usually alone. That's all I do. If I'm not working I'm high or getting high soon.
I'm trying to find a girlfriend but sometimes they want to see me and I'm too high to go see them. That's happened to me and it sucks I really want a girlfriend and I missed those chances because I was stoned.
I know weed isn't addicting but is there another thing for it? Should I move away and try to start over sober?
Yeah…they don‘t. …let me clarify: at least in Germany they won’t. It’s a pain in the Ass here. All the conversations about weed in Germany is just so old fashioned. But hey, when you are 16 on Germany you can drink wine and beer till you die
They don’t prescribe it here in America either.
Hell, I’ve had multiple doctors tell me to stop using it, when I say it’s the ONLY thing that has ever made me mostly migraine free. They usually pretend to say it out of concern over long term effects. It always reads as “hey I know you had daily, chronic migraines, that no prescription drug even touched, but, yeah, you need to stop doing the only thing that has ever worked. How are we going to sell you more drugs, with horrible side effects, that don’t help?”
My doctor wrote a note regarding my chronic pain and I got a MMJ card in 2017.
What are you talking about?
Yeah, I had one of those “doctors” too.
The doctor who signed also writes scripts for fentanyl and dilaudid. Not everyone is the kind of fuckup you are.
I think it depends on the doctor, and depends on the area. In illegal states, the doctors are going to be inclined to not rock the boat.
I’m in a legal state, and my doctor’s completely cool with my cannabis use.
I tend to add some CBD to my THC on & off, so I can keep my dosages down to a dull roar.
I’m in CA. Can’t get much more legal than here. I’ve had multiple try to argue me out of using weed in favor of insert prescription drugs here. The prescription ones never worked or had too many side effects and they just don’t care to hear it.
It’s definitely doc dependent, but my experience is that the “mainstream” doctors your insurance covers are generally not onboard with it. The “doctors” that gave out prescriptions for medical cards were always some dude in a tshirt, that asked like 2 questions and gave a recommendation.
Still speak with a professional. Don’t self diagnose. I don’t know if you have and know for a fact that it’s depression, but if you haven’t and are just going from symptoms that can be dangerous.
There’s a whole slew of mental disorders that might appear as depression at first but are something else, and for some of them, weed can even make them worse than they’d be without it. I speak from personal experience on that. I thought I was depressed, took weed and it turns out it was schizoaffective disorder with major depressive onset. Weed made it much worse than it’d have to be.
I’m not saying that to scare you or anything, cutting off weed and taking proper medication really helped me out personally. But if you’re thinking it’s some mental disorder, it’s always better to get proper diagnosis and medication for it.
I wish you the best regardless. As for the question, when is it too much, the answer was given already. When it starts affecting your life. And yes, weed is not addictive, physically at least, but it definitely is psychologically. If you feel shit when cutting it off, or can only function with it, it’s still addiction.
Well that’s not gonna be a problem anymore next year
