So many questions... Hello Everyone!

[benzi98]

Hello all!

Been reading Bluelight for years now and given recent interests and my inability to come across info I can trust, it was time to say hello!

I am a workaholic and if I'm lucky get an hour or 2 a night to relax and 1 full day on the weekend to bum out, which takes me to my interests of effective nootropics scheduled periodically throughout the work week and legal relaxants on the weekend. Until recently, Kratom was a go-to but now that the ban is pending it's time to see what 2016 has in stock for us!

There is so much conflicting info online and whatever may be common language to most is at this pint completely alien to me. I now know what it means to have kids to keep you young so you actually know what's going on in the younger generations/world. So, definitely at some point I've become out of touch. Looking for a knowledgable buddy or 2 in the area (cyber or otherwise) who doesn't mind being a bit patient and helping my navigate this brave new world and help me get back in touch.

So, hello all and thank you for taking the time to read another newbies post

M.

Holla from the city of brotherly love, benzi! I'm glad you've joined bluelight to share your questions, as the community here is very knowledgeable on all topics, as you probably already know from lurking. I'm glad you've finally joined for the additional reason of sharing your insight! You probably have lots of knowledge on nootropics, something that I love as well! I hope you contribute some helpful insight to the nootropic category, I would love to read new threads about it!

I'd love to be your "Cyberbuddy" to help you with any problems you might encounter! I believe that I am a very help-oriented person with a basic to moderate knowledge of neurochemistry, and I'd love to help out with any questions you have in that field or otherwise. I'll be sure to give help to the most of my ability. If you'd like to stay in touch, consider accepting my friend request!

Hello Ventrusil! Thank you for you reaching out. Friend request accepted!

In the RC space, I never had the opportunity to be around people who were knowledgable users that could help guide me through what's new and available. It seems like in order to take advantage if safe and effective RCs, one has to keep on the look out for the newest products to hit the market and capitalize on it quickly as the more effective they are the more likely they will be criminalized, which is when my interest goes to zero. It looks like the standard go-tos sit on the market for a year or two, someone or a groups of someones do something irresponsible with it and or the media / big pharma catch wind and before you know it the compound goes from regularly available to being placed i.e. as a schedule I, which is why I'm here. The dietary supplement kratom is being threatened and I know that soon enough it will no longer be an option for me to assist in work and pain management. What a damn shame that during the same time the country and capital hill is coming to their senses on pot, that this miracle supplement comes along promising to help heal the H epidemic at its height, and before you know it you could go from a happy and productive law-abiding citizen to a felon facing 20+ years or minimum mandatory sentencing. Ridiculous plain and simple.

Reach out anytime!
