Thought I was in heaven last night. Did a gram of White Widow and slept like a baby all night. Woke up in the morning and actually felt pretty good ! Going for two nights in a row tonight ! ! Really glad I can get away with a small amount for relief. That is why I do not smoke much at a time. Want to keep this “light weight” use as long as possible !

Ya’ll have a great night’s sleep. I have to get some sleep, gotta watch my 3 year old grandson 6:30 AM to 7 PM tomorrow.

I watched the weediquette episode on Vineland. It kills me that there are so many vets that suffer and take their own lives because they don’t have access to this plant and all they have is the medicine cocktail the VA gives us. How many more of us have to die back here after surviving the fields of battle? It’s such BS that they treat us like crap because we aren’t of any use to them anymore. Sorry for this rant, but I’ve lost buddies to suicide and countless others that have attempted it, including myself. Shit always gives me tears in my eyes. They don’t understand because they haven’t never been in that dark dark place where somethin clicks and it just seems so clear that taking your own life is the only thing that is clear and make sense. I love all you vets out there an if y’all ever find yourself in that dark place, please reach out to me. At the time when I tried to I didn’t have anyone to read out to.

100% agreement here brother. I also feel the pain of watching vets take the suicide route. One of them was my patient and I tried to get help for him but all I got was backed into a corner by the VA staff because I said that the doctors and staff were doing no where near enough to save my fellow vets. BC (before Cannabis) I was about 20 seconds from taking my own life but a moment of clear thought broke through just in time. Now I medicate myself with cannabis and have never been this clear on meds from the VA.

It frustrates me to see doctors working (IF you can call it that) at the VA that do not care about vets. It is just a way for them to make money because they are not good enough to make it on the outside. Sorry for my rant but I get pissed at the way we are treated, as used up parts that are no longer needed.

Once you’re put, you aren’t of any use so you don’t matter pretty much. Cannabis is the only thing that has helped with anything. In Aug when I attempted it, I was dry and didn’t have any medicine. Life is just better when I have my herb. I feel more like myself after a good smoke session. When I don’t have it, I’m on edge and feel.like someone elae, if that makes sense.

Feelings are sometimes hard to put into words but you do a pretty good job of it. Too many of us hold back or don’t even know how to put our feelings int words

It sucks to talk about stuff like feelings, but to eventually get over or at least have a better handle on things sometimes it’s necessary

Lol. When the feelings overwhelming the best is to just say it and get rid of it that way you have released it and you can let go of it to a point. If that makes sense?
