ADHD, Cannabis, Life

Everyone start your piles so they can be ready for December!

Actually ever since I bought my house I have so much pride in it, I have been doing much better at (its mine!) keeping a clean house. Which is good because I have been a slob most of my life.

I hear what you mean aboutnot doing homework. My younger brother was a wiz at tests. But didntbpass in any homework so he
failed classes. Eventually he just said fuk it and quit school. He was diagnise adhd early on and took ritilan for it apparently it didnt do him any good. He did however at some point get his GED.

Does anyone else have a paradoxical reaction to the physical aspects of being high? It doesnā€™t feel bad to me, but it is not relaxing and can become uncomfortable. Just wondering if thatā€™s an ADHD thing or just a me thing.

Definitely the inattentive, brain moving to fast, didnā€™t do homework but aced tests sort here. Was diagnosed in 2nd grade because I also have dysgraphia. Was put on Ritalin, but got off it in jr high because it makes me anxious. I drink coffee all day and smoke most of the day.

Oh shit ā€¦ yeah Iā€™m going to start medication soon and I canā€™t wait. I have too many symptoms that have made my life take twists and turns where it should have been normal and safe

Hmmm I definitely donā€™t get that reaction, Im not sure I would smoke cannabis if it wasnt relaxing.

I like itā€¦ Im on 40mg and am pretty happy so far. The euphoria didnā€™t last long term of course but man was it great for that week.

I would suggest making a list of things that you want to get done or achieve before you start whatever stimulant medication your doc decides on. Vyvanse helps me to want to start tasks that I have been struggling withā€¦ I just do things instead of agonizing over them. But I can get so focused on a book or researching some random fact on Google that I can lose hours fucking around. I find getting my space ready (desk clear or tools out ect ect) helps me stay on task. Also make sure you eat a large breakfast before as it will inhibit your appetite. I often dont realize Im hungry in the afternoon until I start getting a little light headed, tired or shakey.

Best of luck with your new meds.

I struggle so badly with this. It makes me hate myself.

Thatā€™s amazing. I have a collection of books so havenā€™t been able to read.

Oh shit Iā€™m already there with my busparin for anxiety ā€¦ good call. My insurance will kick in soon. I hope it goes well.

I smoke non-stop to keep my frame-rate down.

Yeah, I kinda think it is just me šŸ¤·

I do like heavy Afghani genetics in moderation, but Iā€™m more likely to freek out from gdp than whatever sativa I can get my hands on. Honestly, the relative rarity of sativas is one of the big reasons I started growing this year.

I wonder if itā€™s something with my endocannabinoid system, or just neurodivergent sensory stuff?

Hello Iā€™ve been struggling with adhd my whole life and now anxiety, my husband grows and has a lot of seeds but we have been struggling to learn whatā€™s best for ppl like me. it would be so appreciated to be given advice on best strains from your experience so we can start growing it right away. I have googled best strains there is way too many offered with great reviews and Iā€™ve tried some but they made my anxiety worse and didnā€™t really help with adhd.

This is a tough question because everyone will react differently to different strains and at different emotional points in your life. You and I can smoke the same plant at the same time and have very different experiences. Iā€™ve grown the same strain for several runs and had different experiences due to how the plant was treated, how long it was flowered, summer vs winter etc etc. My best advice be to start taking notes when you are smoking to see if you can find commonality in the strains you like and work for you. With the information thatā€™s available on terps you can nail down what works for you. Or just start growing and keep cuts off of everything you run. When you find that magic cut, keep it and hold it tight.

Personally for me classic hybrids in the sour diesel/OG/Skunk/chemdog family are perfect daily drivers. Not too much zip, not too much stone, nice flavor, etc. ā€œGoodā€ sour diesel I feel like I could smoke all day every day.

I have add ,adhd, since I was a kid now I m 45 years old and struggle with severe anxiety ,depression and other crap. The one strain that always seemed to help was Blueberry and Blueberry Muffins checks all the boxes. Even for pain managment I found it extremely helpful. I truly hope this stuff helps and could find something in my bag of seeds u can have if u want.I have a bunch of crosses and bb mixes tht would most definitly be useful in ur situation. PM me if u would like.
