I got in a very bad car accident 1 week ago - had a grand mal seizure while driving and ran straight into a brick building at a high rate of speed (thankfully no one else was hit!). Miss Cheddar Bay Biscuit has been giving me all of her healing purrs while I'm laid up. 🧡
Her name is Cheddar Bay Biscuit and she is 4 months old. (And I have ointment for that eye.) 🧡
It's the last fish I need and I've gone through 200 bait so far trying to catch it (both on my pier and on several NMT islands). Curse you, fish. Curse you and the 100+ Sea Bass I've caught in your place! 😭
Does anyone have any extra fish bait they'd be willing to part with. I've got the bells to pay!
My kid got sick today and it was very stressful (he's got a chronic illness that gets worse when he catches a virus). I dealt with more vomit than I have in the last year. Basically, I was stressed as hell and was trying to calm down. I actually picked up a pipe, said "NO" out loud, and then went outside to literally touch grass. Within 5 minutes I was calmed down... but then my damn cat brought me a live garter snake he found in the backyard and dropped it on the ground next to where I was sitting. My mind instantly forgot that I wanted to smoke. 😂 Thanks, cat.
The wonderful people at r/Perimenopause suggested I join this sub. Yesterday I was finally able to admit that I have an addiction and need to step away from THC vapes. I also spoke with my husband about it last night and asked for his help. Due to the length of time that I was using them, it was suggested that I gradually stop my use. Today was the first day that I didn't wake and bake. I have a small headache and suddenly have heartburn - but that could just be my general existence. 🤷♀️ I don't trust myself at times, so I've asked my husband to keep it from me unless I request it (evenings only) until I run out - then I plan to stop entirely. I have a horrible time asking for help, so I need access to people who understand. I'm really glad that this sub exists.
I'm posting on here, because I've seen others lament their overuse of THC during peri. I had been a frequent user for a while, but it was manageable and I found that I could easily take breaks from it. Before I started on estrogen/progesterone, I was using THC more frequently to keep my emotions under control. That increase in frequency has basically made me addicted to it and I partake nearly all day, every day. I put the word in quotes, because I know I won't face physical withdrawals when I stop. But, it's definitely a mental addiction and I've got an addictive personality. Fortunately, it's pretty much my only vice. I've been on estrogen/progesterone for a few months now and I'm finally to the point where I realize I really need to quit. Has anyone on here been able to successfully quit or have any suggestions on a good subreddit to join? Finally losing the brain fog gave me a lot of mental clarity, but my dumb ass is just fogging it up another way. 🥴
*I marked this NSFW, since I'm discussing marijuana and it's not legal everywhere yet (it is where I live).
ETA: You guys are freaking AWESOME. Thank you all so much. ❤️ And I wanted to update this to say that I understand that it is a true addiction. I'm sorry for anyone I may have offended with that statement.
