Thanks Fam, I’m glad to have intriguing conversations on a topic I’m passionate about or that my profession is in relation to I Geuss haha (healthcare)
@OverallQuill80 I didn’t actually start the thread but there are a couple, I did reply to one. Here
Two more
The simple answer to cannabis related hyperemesis is to cut way back, try and quit for an extended period of time (30 days min 90 days ideal) and then only consume low doses.
Most of the time we are seeing this with concentrate users, but it can still happen in flower although not as common.
These users will often believe it was something else because they never had a problem before… But the issue is they often have increased their dosage significantly and often for extended periods of time. Their stomachs get scoped and then nothing is found and most are still in denial is my experience. As they don’t always get sick every day its more of a comes and goes thing but generally they are just sick much more often within a week or couple weeks having to vomit multiple times.
Honestly if I had a friend who would listen to me, I would share all this knowledge with them, have a conversation and get them in the mindset that they want to quit. Then have a high dose psilocybin experience, in a very safe relaxing environment (ide dose with them but not as high maybe a micro dose) and that experince can often help trigger their mental journey through the dependency. They can explore their mind and body working through their thoughts and realizing they need to change their habits.
Now that may sound a little off the wall but we are using Mdma and psilocybin in controlled environments to help people get through trauma and addiction.
Trauma like accepting terminal illnesses, coming to tearms with death.
PTSD in many people from abuse victoms to veterans, in order for them to work through that trauma and learn how to pass through the pain while realizing they can feel happy again.
Finally psilocybin and other psychedelics have shown to help “reset” addiction at a much higher rate than without.
Mdma will be approved for use by the FDA next summer in the USA and the DEA will be forced to re schedule the class of drug mdma is within 90 days.
Of course it will be only available in very controlled forums but we are finally breaking through the war on drugs with solid research.
Psilocybin research is a couple years behind but it’s very promising.
These guys are the ones leading the research and are about to get FDA approval.
And of course John Hopkins has been researching these drugs for the last 20 years.
