re: Pain med question 

@Doggo ah, crap, howcome re CBD? :(

Fwiw I found the fatigue part.. On opioids I had brainfog and fatigue, and was like

"Welp, if I'm gonna be wondering around in a foggy state of fatigue and loss of cognition anyway, it may as well be from the pain than a constant from the meds. And I do miss having an intact/functional gastrointestinal system"

But you may have a different impact of side-effects, and there are non-opioid pain treatments. Just most of the meds you'll be prescribed for chronic pain are opioid based in some form.

@pastelbat CBD reacts poorly with my adhd meds and I get kinda...high.

I’m gonna try not painkiller joint creams. They’re bad for dogs so I didn’t wanna use em at home, but at unti I’ll be fine

re: Pain med question 

@Doggo ah, interesting. thankyou for explaining! (I mean, 'bad' but.. I take both and don't get this, so 'find the comparative experiences interesting').

What sort of high? I'd like to be able to self-monitor for whether I am getting it and either dissociating or in a milder form- I suspect not, but. Data is good. No pressure to describe a v. qualitative/weird internal headstate tho, I know how.. Hard that can be. xP

I hope the joint creams work out better for you.

@pastelbat

Ah like it happened when I take my short instance release tablets— I’d go ‘fast’ feel sorta...jittery and my thoughts would race. Too many to type down?
That was what I noticed most, I couldn’t focus bc I had that many racing thoughts.

Thank u, I did grave one a while back and it worked good? Dunno how I forgot abt that XP
