i sent this message to some of my meatspace peeps today.

dear fellow weirdos and malcontents.
if you have been paying attention, you must be wondering if i have lost my mind. i have tried to show that what has happened is that i have switched on my brain.
some of you feel you cant trust my explanation for this, to whom i say, there is the door. some of you wonder if you can believe me. to you i say- dont. prove it to yourself.
i'm only sending this to my mj using friends. what i think has happened is that i found a level of mmj that has effectively treated an old brain injury. you cant find it on an mri. over the last 10 years of so the best brains have been trying to understand all this, and the more i read, the more i was sure that this was me.
in the early days of brain research, docs looked at brains that had a hole punched in them, and mapped out what was broken and what still worked.
there is a little koan that docs, esp brain docs, find inscrutable- how can the human mind understand the human brain. my answer is- from the inside out.
instead of measuring the holes in old brains, find a brain that had a small injury early in development.
if you are interested in seeing if i am on the right track, i will share what happened to me in a little more detail- i swore that edibles had no effect on me, but i figured maybe it just wasnt enough, so i upped it until i felt like it was having an impact. that turned out to be about 4x what most people use.
if you want to see for yourself, will you try upping your dose for a week, and let me know what happens?

1. I think it is a miracle drug.

Since I got my med card and have had good access,
I have lost 40 lbs, put on muscle, corrected at least some of my arthritis,
and learned to garden.

Of course, I also retired during that time, but the medical effects have been amazing.

2. i also lost 40 lbs.

just one example in my case is that i used to trip over my own feet on the regular, and i shun things made of glass because their lifespan in my hands is in the nanoseconds.
i havent tripped at all, let alone hit the floor in a month. and the few things i have dropped i have caught.

i wont go further on this because i dont want to influence anyone.
but suffice to say my life split between then and now before the rona hit.

3. I'm curious,

Dosage numbers? Content of your edibles?

4. piehole, and 9 lb hammer are the strains.

and it started kicking in at about 80 mg(?). not sure the unit there, but typically they are 20.
