Have to agree with this. Its been the chems and dub crosses that really help me find relief.
Thank you we have blueberry here and will try that
Thank you I will try those Iām going to start a diary on what I like the best
Blueberry is great, but for ADHD and for me, finding a Sativa leaner really helps. Blue dream is one to consider as well. Iāll also echo the sour d and chem and throw in haze such as amnesia and super lemon haze.
@Originalweedman I just started a bunch of Sour D BX3 x (BBM x VB) that I suspect will be a winner in regards to daily smoke. Also sorting through Sour D x SSH crosses to that same boy that I have the same hopes for.
All of your stories remind me of myself, I have a son thatās diagnosed adhd and Iām undiagnosed but itās become very obvious the older I get. Iāve seemed out stimulants my entire life. Caffine and nicotine. Only now did I realize I was self medicating. Iāve kicked the cigarettes but coffee has remained strong.
Cannibis for me only helps in low doses. This may be an unpopular opinion but I donāt like being high or euphoric. Just a little behind the eyes for me and it helps.
I have had a blueberry cross that I can say it felt very nice and was super chill. I havenāt had one long term to test. I think if I every buy some seeds I may check out dj shorts blueberry.
All that other crap can be grouped in with adhd. If untreated adhd can lead to all types of mental health problems.
I got diagnosed at 35 but quit medicating at 37. Wasnt a big deal until i quit exercising and my wife made me get rid of the xbox. It blossomed into ocd/depression. I also started getting intrusive thoughts really bad. I went to a therapist and they told me to get back on the adhd meds again. Shit went away overnight
Also, skunks do the absolute best for me when it comes to herbal remedies for it. Wedding cake is solid too. Fairly heavy without the anxiety i tend to get with stronger strains
I was diagnosed by western medicine as adhd when I was about 21 trying to finish my chemical engineering degree at Penn State. Well, that only gave me an adderall prescription that led to a bout of amphetamine psychosis and me dropping out of school and 4 visits to jail with only 4 classes to pass to grant me a bachelors and 2 associates degrees.
I think nowadays Iām not the one whoās distracted, Iām just disagreeing. I cannot find it efficient to work for greenbacks that are not green. It is the western medicine and society that is distracted. I have found all the herbals I need as medicine, the ones that would put half their doctors out of business, well before theyāll find half the solutions to all their simultaneous wars they fight consecutively.
I am happier and healthier than ever before and probably ever will be since Iām only getting older here, but have yet to find an amicable way to finish school or even a job that lasts more than a year or two to be honest. The west is too reliant on fossil fuels and the fools will soon be fossils themselves, and as an engineer is focused on efficiency, the people in politics are the scum of the earth lying to theirselves and everyone else about what is God and what is clean. It seems Iām stuck in America and want to live in say Canada but Iām too poor to move.
That being said, itās not adhd either if you literally have no responsibilities anymore like meā¦. I found a way to live comfortably for about $10000 a year as a vegan and shopping in thrift stores and eBay and stuff. I donāt need a car where I live, and it all works out efficiently like this like I went to school for this anyway.
I dont know how TF you ever kept up with chemistry with adhd. I love it, and its one of the few things im interested in that i cant keep up with.
Theres only 3 times ive ever felt like i had a legitimate learning disability with adhd; they were learning to tie my shoes as a kid, college level chemistry, and jiu jitsu.
Lol, chem eng is like three levels above that even. It was real tough. Engineers deserve all the success they can invent, yet itās the suits in blue that seem to take all the credit in this world.
Iām definitely ptsd over the whole situation still, itās been over a decade!
Same here, Mrs Panda is an ADHD beast, especially after dinner. But, need a good idea about something creative, sit back with a pen and paper and get ready. Beast I say!
I grow a few Chemyās for her specifically. Seems to help.
Panda
I do lol. Pisses me off too lol.
Just wanted to mention that in the california prop 215 / prop 420 system, trainwreck was always the recommended meds for adhd. might be worth trying.
There was basically a standard list of strains that were recommended for specific conditions. mainly so new patients (who needed a doctors evaluation and recommendation for a specific condition to get their card) would have a starting point to figure out what worked for them.
the trainwreck was definitely effective for people, which is why it was so widely available from 420 dispensaries and 215 collectives.
I have Aspergers, Trainwreck is my āgo toā.
This definitely hit home. Especially if I get excited about something I have deep knowledge in
Pz
Yep.
Iām quiet more often than not now not by choice but as self defense from allowing people to hurt me through their indifference.
Though, Iām sure we all still sit and listen when others talk about stuff we could care less about but see their passion and know how much it hurts to just wave off that passion due to our own indifference.
So we sit and listen, engage appropriately, all knowing that we donāt want to hurt others the way they hurt us; even though they donāt reciprocate our concerns.
This is because we know change can only happen with applied effortā¦ and it makes me sadder and sadder every day that there are so few people doing this.
@Pigeonman For you and @LonelyOC and anyone else in this thread who needs one.
Sending a hug your way
Sometimes itās so hard to be a person. Existing is difficult, especially when my brain wants nothing more than to disengage and shut down.
I have an incredibly difficult time opening up.
This all resonates with me too.
You guys are awesome
Thank you for giving me a moment to step outside of myself and reflect. Being real with myself is sometimes as difficult as it is with other people.
Itās like youāre describing myself, and I have realize that it really takes a toll on my self esteem longterm. I have no idea how to break the circle by myself.
I was at a workplace a couple of years ago and pretty much everybody there had ADHD. It was awesome, we were so good to each other, listen to each other and respected each other. It really built me up and now I know that I just have to be in the correct set and setting for my self esteem to come back to what it was.
This is also was i liked about going to university where everyone was interested in the same thing and I could talk and nerd about my biggest interest all the time.
Have you ever been in the situation where you sit there, listen and you just need to hear three words. Then you know exactly where they are going with the talk and what the punchline will be? I get this a lot and itās quite demotivating and get so tedious.
How wonderful of a human being can you be?
Thank you so much for the empathy and kind gesture.
This happends to me if I donāt use cannabis. It takes 3 month of being clean, then Iām going through exactly what youāre describing.
For me itās because the stress of the adult life and everything surrounding it, overwhelms me so much and I get paralysed by just existing. I have tried everything under the sun and nothing comes close to the stress relief I get from cannabis.
Over the years this is something that have happened to me aswell. It feels like if Iām going to open up about all the shit thatās going on, I would open up all the time and being a bit of pain in the ass. I feel that this is especially problematic as a man, because I see my women friends who have ADHD open up about everything all the time and everybody thinks itās totally normal. But as a man, you should just shut up and double down.
Stay strong my brothers
Pz
this is also too familiarā¦
You just need to hang with more neurodivergent folk. I love talking at length about all kinds of weird shit
You are always welcome to nerd out with me @emeraldbullfrog @LonelyOC
