does cannabis help your eating/digestive issues?
Click to expand...

I actually find that smoking weed daily really fucks my appetitte and induces nausea, but only about 4 hours after each smoke. Its like a mini withdrawl thing, which seems odd. I usually feel really nauseted in the morning to the extent of vomitng sometimes, and this is usally only apparent when smoking daily; during off periods, I feel okay.

Its a shitty side effect for me that I don't know how common it is...

Cant write all that well :)

To be quite frank I can't tell one way or the other.

To put it into perspective though, I was a daily smoker for 4 years up until recently, and my appetite/speed of digestion simply seems to go up when I'm in the midst of being a stoner. I over eat when I smoke (I'll literately eat till I'm sick at times of extreme stoned-ness), but I maintain the exact same weight and still shit 3-5 times a day. Now that I'm sobered up, I eat a little less and shit a little less, but maintain the same low weight. As a kid I was never diagnosed with anything, my pediatrician just said I had a speedy metabolism.

I really think it might be my genetics to over simplify it, but I don't know anyone else in my family with quite the same trouble gaining weight. My dad said he was thin as a kid, but I can see that his metabolism has clearly caught up with him, and I'm hoping mine will too some day.

I am actually the same way but sounds like not quite so extremely. I usually shit 2-3 times a day and I eat a fuckload, and I've always been that way and I was always really skinny growing up and until recently. I hovered around 135-140 pounds depending on how active I was, and I'm 6' 1/2". When the opiates were the worst I was 130 pounds, my ribs were sticking out, etc. But even when I would eat enough or more than enough, I'd NEVER gain weight. I'm at 160 now and it's only because of working out... I've gained a lot of muscle and I'm just thin now, not skinny. I eat like 3000-4000 calories a day when I work out, probably 2500-3000 when I don't. It's kind of a pain in the ass, I spend a lot of money on food and if I get down and don't feel motivated or if I don't eat enough for any other reason, for a few days, I'll lose like 5-10 pounds. It's crazy, my weight fluctuates daily depending on how recently I've eaten. I once weighed myself in the morning after taking a shit and then later in the day I weighed myself right after I ate dinner and I was 5 pounds less than in the morning. I have a bit of body fat (which a person should) but it goes right away if I don't maintain it. I just ate breakfast a bit ago (4 eggs with cheese and onions) and I'm hungry as fuck again already to the point of a groaning/twinging stomach.

My girlfriend is insisting I call our university's Center for Psychological Counseling tomorrow. Hopefully they can offer some aid. I'm just really skeptical of psychologists/psychiatrists; when I was a teenager I saw a number of them for help, and they all just acted like I was some stupid teenager who didn't know shit and had trivial problems. Well guess what assholes, I still have the same problems years later, so you should have helped me instead of belittling me... That's why I haven't sought aid for years... I always figure they'll be the same as they were years ago and just give me a "Get over it" kind of argument, which never effing helped. One psychologist back then also tried to act like my slipping grades were the issue; I was like, "No lady, I couldn't give two shits about my grades, I'm fucking depressed and suicidal, why would I care about school?!" Clearly I haven't had good luck with people from this field of medicine.

I hear a lot of horror stories about therapists. But good ones exist. After ibogaine/breakup/opiates being done I started going to therapy, I got a recommendation from a doctor I like the vibe of and I lucked out and got a great therapist, this really cool woman who really got me and was compassionate and even supported my use of psychedelics as a tool. It was definitely a good thing for me, I stopped going after like 5 months because I didn't feel like I needed it anymore but I'm glad I went, it was a good experience that helped me get clarity. Don't rob yourself of a potentially very positive thing for you just because of some shitty mental health "professionals" you had the misfortune of encountering. Try to find a recommendation, or just try someone, if you don't like them after a few times you can always move on to trying someone else.

Not to change the subject or boast, but I had a magical evening. After work tonight, my girlfriend and I each drank a couple of beers, played pool, and then made love for an hour and a half. I used to always despise the term "making love" and felt like it was just sappy sentimental BS. But that's the only way I can describe what happened tonight.

Yeah man, that's awesome. That's what me and the girl I'm seeing are like... it's always been that way even from the first time, which is part of why I really like her. It can only be described as making love... so much better than sex I'd imagine but I've actually only been with my ex-wife and this girl and it was like that with both of them... but more intensely/naturally with this girl. It's really great, we have some sort of really deep physical/emotional connection that just seems to be part of our natural interaction with each other, especially when we're having sex/being physical in some way (like snuggling or sleeping).
 
I have 3 jams (really 4 but the second one has 2 in one track) we did the other day, that I'm very happy with indeed. The first one is the same group as most of the other stuff I've posted, but the others are with this other guitarist as well as the regular guitarist. I have trouble with his energy, he tries to be way more structured than the rest of us, so I was struggling a bit on the first part of the 2nd jam, when he joined, but I got it after that one. I was tripping on 2.25mg of DOC when we did this. My hands were sweating profusely and I was slipping a lot on the keys (I'm the piano player in this), but it sounds better than I thought at the time. It was definitely an issue though.

These jams are really trippy and beautiful... I hope you like them. :) If you like that sort of thing, get high first or trip before you listen. ;) :D

I think the 2nd part of the 2nd one sounds Santana-esque. The 3rd one starts with 1 or 2 mini-jams and then gets into the real thing.

EDIT: There's also this one, it's the first time I played keys in this context at all, actually anything but a real piano. It's still at least tied for my favorite thing we've ever done. We feel that it came together perfectly, like not a single bad note, it sounds like a song some band would have but it just came to us, we didn't even realize it until we listened to it.

I'm listening to jam-2 right now. Good shit! I like it a lot. It's like tripping out at a Widespread Panic show. Around 20:00 it reminds me of live Yes in the days of steve howe.

Sweet, I know what I'm listening to after work tonight! I've been wanting to hear more of your stuff for a while.

I need to start jamming again. My friend (and tripping buddy) mike and I had started writing and jamming, but my life got weird and complicated around the end of January. I've been wanting to devote some time to it, but I've been spending most of my free time with my lady and finding that quite fulfilling :p
 
My lady is the coolest when it comes to the music. Anytime I have to do something with the band (these recordings are not the band), she tells me I need to go do it and she'll just stay at my house (if we're hanging out that day). She's coming back tomorrow (she was also here last night) and I am going to have to tell her I'll be occupied for a few hours but it's to finish getting a demo together so we can play at a festival in March, and I'm positive she'll be totally understanding and cool about it. :)
 
That's really cool, my ex was a massive bitch about me getting together with friends. My current girlfriend is really cool though. Recently I spent my entire day off hanging out with mike, drinking and playing pool. She hit me up and just told me she was glad I was having fun and that she knows how important "guy time" is.
 
My ex had the same friends as me but if I wanted to do something without her she was a bitch about it, it was weird. I was like, I get when you want to have girl time (not that it happened often), I enjoyed when she did girl time. It was like, if she didn't want to socialize, we had to stay home, rather than me just go by myself and see her later.

yeah my ex was the same way. she would always bitch at me for hanging out with my friends too much, so i basically stopped hanging out with my friends for a while, then she started to get all pissy with me that i never did anything anymore. i think she just felt the need to bitch about something at all times, and the actual thing she was bitching about was inconsequential. like she used to bitch at me for never getting her flowers, and then when i would get her flowers she would start crying and say "you only got these for me because i told you to" lol

the good thing about going through a really rough breakup is that you stop feeling the need to put up with anyone's bullshit. if a girl did that to me nowadays, i would just be like "lol okay then, BYE". got nothin' to lose anymore, these days i'm equally fine with being alone as being with somebody.

Apparently we've all dated control freak-women, my current girlfriend is kinda like that. If she isn't going out, I have to stay in. She's getting better about it now, I think it's important for us to work it out together rather than me stiff her. In the past I would blow her off to see friends, and I think that is why she has this issue now.
 
Yeah hopefully it keeps getting better. I never blew off my ex for friends, although on the rare occasions I did even early on while we were in college she would interpret it that way. She used to make me go to bed with her and stop hanging out, even if I wasn't tired, when we were all hanging out (she and our friends and I) and they always thought it was so weird.

Haha, that sounds familiar to me. And you're so right, I'll NEVER put up with that again. I'm already a little uncomfortable sometimes with how much time I spend with my current girl and she's the coolest ever about all this stuff, least controlling woman I've ever met. If I was dating someone and that did that kind of stuff to me one time I'd probably end it, at this point. I'm probably a little paranoid but that shit just drained the life out of me and no one needs to deal with it.

Hey roger did you see I posted links to some new jams I did on the last page? Thought you might be interested, I was hoping you'd pop in and see it because I value your opinion. :)
 
Sick again? That's the second or third time so far this year. Probably shouldn't be smoking or drinking, but whatever. Send me some common sense. Well, I'm sure I have it, I'm just not concerned about my health, and I have an irrational belief that my immune system is really bad ass (it has tried to kill me before, that takes chutzpah). Eh, a lil' cold is good for the mood anyway, physical discomfort distracts me from emotional discomfort.

And y'all and your anecdotes will not sully my idealized conceptions of romance. It sounds to me like a lot of people are simply ungrateful, I mean, it's a pretty psychedelic thing for somebody to want to make so deeply a part of their lives, you can't try to redecorate people's hearts like you would a room because you think you deserve to get exactly what you want.


Man, I wonder if I'm running a fever, typing such sentences. Hahaha.
