Yes and no. I have dozens, theyāre in my pockets at all times, all over the house youāll see neon orange thingsā¦ heh. And I can double up with earmuff types. Happily discovered a ārainfallā white noise recording on youtube yesterday.
The ānoā factor is I also have tinnitus(ringing) in the ears, so I have to choose my pain, they donāt do anything for low-frequency noise(the kind you can āfeelā), and after hours they hurt just from being in there.
The simple solution is to just āmove awayā but like a lot of folks i live where i do because of $ or the lack thereof. Itās a future hope for me.
The crazy solution is to build a soundproof bunker immediately behind my homeā¦ and probably the one I can actually do. $ being the basic issue with that too. heh.
Iād love to incorporate a bit of greenhouse into such a thing too.
Try some lemon balm better than cannabis for anxiety induced adrenaline/heart palpitations (for me anyway)
gets rid of the startle/jumpiness
changed my life.
its like being normal again.
Itās ok either way. They give me abilify to stabilize my moods and trazodone to sleep. I have a script for klonopin but I rarely take it. Only time I do is when I wanna get knocked out lol.
The GABA thing is something I researched before but came to the conclusion our science is only interested in single compounds for capitalistic reasons. There is no money to be spent on the synergistic actions of natural medicines.
People have been using herbs for 000ās of years and prescription meds for what? like, 200 at mostā¦
if the research helps someone to try it, who am I to judge, if it helps it cant be bad
Me too bro. I have major depression and take mine as prescribed every day. I wouldnāt need them if I had a source for shrooms. Micro-Dosing the correct amount daily and I am better than any pharmaceuticals can do for me.
Was diagnosed bi-polar/manic depressive, with schizophrenia psychosis (the rather rare olfactory hallucinations only version) at the age of 15ā¦ had a severe speech impediment (stutter) since birth. Was on a crapton of meds in my youthā¦ Prozac,depacote, artane, stelazine, lithium, haldol, etcā¦ medication for the diagnosis, then more medication to deal with the side effects of those medications, and so on. After hitting pretty much rock bottom a couple years later, I decided to cut the meds completely and rely on nicotine to help with the brain chemical imbalance. Been off meds ever sinceā¦ Definitely took a lot of willpower and inner strength and rebuilding myself as a person from square one, with constant work on it everyday, but way better than how I ever was on meds. I was at the point in meds where I didnāt feel like āmeā, but more like a shell of me, nothing but unfeeling facade, and I did not like that person.
So yeah, thatās my mental health story, as unglamorous as it is lol
On the non-mental sideā¦ hyperthyroidism and hypoglycemiaā¦ great for parties since I burn through alcohol usually faster than it can really affect me, but sucks because I canāt gain weight and need a pretty large calorie intake just to maintain my 140 lbs at 5ā11, along with constantly watching my sugar and making sure I have some sort of sugar intake throughout the day (Dr. Pepper on work days since I hate cotton mouth, and sugar tablets on days off)
I was gonna respond but I know there are people who will be much better suited to helping you. Working through bits. Iām still here for a chat though
