Autism and Marijuana

Post Reply New Topic

absolutely .,Best of Luck with your business endeavor ....

Have a theory..about autism effects and cannabis ...with extra neural fibres ..growth without any great amount of neural pruning .The rapidity of which these neurons running threw a Aspies head. Might benefit by a sort of slowing down
by this stuff ? So not so much overload of input, in dealing with people and issues,past and present...reducing speed of ability to process immediate inputs and seperate them from older info, in the brain ..to ones psyche . Thus relieving a person with Autism to sort immediate inputs better ?.???. just a thought ?
And as has been explained to me , and seen people as examples...the strain of the Cannabis is quite important.

I swear by pot and strong espresso to counteract the laziness. My performance evals at my job went up. I also vape while I am on a stationary bike 5-6 times per week.

I am ADHD and ASD and need the stimulation.

just a thought for a supplement to decrease effects on lungs by smoke...Viamin E (multitocepherols) or tocotrienols.
Add a garlic capsule . maybe alittle Vitamin C sometimes, help allow the lungs to recover . Just a thought offering .
For anyone inhaling smoke .
Might sort your strains of herb to ,also help to counteract laziness , as a thing to look at ? Sativa..?/ terpines types.aswell.

If you use a water bong, its a lot less damaging but it also reduces the strength. I hope to move to a legal area and get it cheaper.

Vaping is unknown at this time what the effects are.

If it were TRULY legal and unregulated, it'd be much cheaper to just eat. But the puritans want to stick taxes on it just cause they think its bad.

I'm telling ya, my life turned around when I started smoking pot. Every time I stop, my social structures around me collapse or I end up drinking A LOT of beer - like 18/day.

I have never used pot since its illegal in Texas and also because I dont want to lose my gun rights because its still illegal at the federal level.

in the grand scheme of things, i'd have to say that, so far, pot has done me more good than any firearm has.

I completely agree. Nothing good comes from guns.

I live in Washington state, where marijuana is legal. Here we can buy CBD in the weed stores AND in certain drug stores (Walgreens and Bartell's here). There is a difference between the 2 locations and what they are legally allowed to sell. The Walgreen type stores are only allowed to sell CBD that contains 0% THC; the weed stores are only allowed to sell CBD products with THC also in it. Why is this important? Supposedly it means the 'pure' CBD product can be sold online across state line while the THC infused product absolutely cannot. You can order all sorts of 'hemp oil' products currently on Amazon.

I personally haven't ever tried to buy any myself, but that is simply because I prefer my CBD to be THC infused for a more potency overall. I personally need the psychotropic effects that THC provide as much if not more than the CBD.

Dont do Drugs ..? .............pharmaceuticals....use natural methods

Because plants are just.... Unnatural?

Certain strains make me less anxious when using them, but I usually have an anxiety spike after use no matter what.

terpenes are your friends here, esp. caryophyllene, which i have found [YMMV] to be fairly effective as a relaxer/sleep aid.

I smoked weed daily for more than five years during college and law school. While I swear by it as it greatly impacted my quality of life for the better, it didn’t really slow anything down. One man’s experience.

I grew my own for years; I personally like sativa strains vs indica strains. I had my grow tent, grow lights etc. The grow lights are LED now. It is legal to grow up to 4 plants in my state. I found the law puzzling as you could grow 4 large plants outside that might produce pounds but if you grew more than 4 inside that might produce ounces it became illegal (You could have 3 grows a year) Indoor grows do not grow as big as plants grown outside. I feel the law should be based upon the quantity you have not the # of plants. I smoked a couple of bong loads a day for many years. I found it helped my autism but it became too much of a feast or famine issue; I would have pot during the Spring through early Fall but I would be without Winter through early Spring. I didn't have a reliable source to buy it on the streets during those months I was without. I might try an outdoor grow next year. I guess you could say it became a hobby; I became a pot connoisseur.
