As mentioned, I'd go for an Indica dominant strain, specifically a Kush which tend to have good medicinal and pain relieving effects.

If you go to the items wall, and use your 'find in page' option on your browser (usually an option in the top right of your device) you can do a search of all the items using a keyword like 'kush'.

I've linked you to Super Han's Cookies Kush which I've grown myself and can say is a good strong Kush. He's a well respected vendor with a good reputation.

Good luck with everything and don't be afraid to ask any more questions if you get stuck.

Take care buddy.

Cheers BB

Y'know what, this is just lovely in amongst some of the trolling and general bollocks that has been on these pages recently. A vendor recommending another one for the good of a bigga in need of help. Nice one BB!

Hi, thanks loads for the info. So far I've been avoiding anything known for making you sleepy as already have chronic fatigue. Have I been wrong for doing that? Most people so far have suggested Indica strains. How big a difference is there between Sativa and Indica in terms of how sleepy you get?
Thanks again.
PB

I'd say that Indica doms in general will tend to make you more sleepy and sativa is more geared towards daytime smoking when you can still function. So you're probably best off with a 50/50 (or thereabouts) hybrid so you still get the strength and pain relief of an Indica, but something that doesn't knock you out completely.

Maybe try and find something like a White Widow. She's a strong hybrid but is also known for being a more lively stone rather than a couch lock knockout. Strong but not sleepy.

Link above with some info on WW for you.

Cheers BB

Hi , I’ve similar going on too , tbh I’ve found this site a lifeline since I found it a year ago , I’ve sampled many strains for pain relief , mental health as well as I just want that stoned feeling to help get thru days sometimes , not be up against pain 24/7.

I swap about a lot as I can’t settle on one consistent strain (prob need a tolerance break but can’t deal with it just now lol ;)
Just now what’s helping me is
Chronus bud honey cream and
Talk to Franks Cinderella - both are very smooth effects & accurate listings , help with pain, chill, inspire and help me meditate to help with pain and get in the reiki zone too .
Also look out for British bulldog too .
I hope this helps a bit :))

Hi, thanks for the advice, I have some of Talk to Franks Cinderella and it's helped a lot. I also really like Headband for when I get migraines. This site has really helped me reduce my opiate use and has helped me to get out and about more often, which obviously really helps with the old mental health.
Thanks again 😃

Ooo il have to look out for the headband one too , thank you too :))

Dawgs for me are great for all round well being they lift the mind and hug the body. You'll probably have already had stardawg no doubt but if not give it a try because even though some people get snobby about it it's a very dependable and consistent strain in my experience! - RB's stardawg is my go to but there's loads of dawgs on lb to experiment with! :)

Hi, I haven't tried stardawg but I'll put it on the list. I haven't smoked weed since I was a teenager, but that was over 25 years ago, and damn things have moved on.

haha havent they just! If you've never had dawg you'll be in for a treat a lot of people got fed up with it because it dominated the streets for a few years but it was popular for a reason. It's a best of both worlds kind of bud for me so I hope it works well for you, good luck mate :)

Hi PolarBear

I have something that you might like/might help (link in the post).

Let me send you some for free, to see if you like it, just ping me a message with your address and i'll pop it in the post for you :)

Generally speaking, as others have already mentioned, a high level of CBD is good (>5%). And avoid very high levels of THC if you can (>19%).

BudB

That's really generous of you, thank you. I was actually looking at that the other day. I'm keen to give it a try.

I would say White Dawg for pain and relaxation. A nice sativa for the daytime. If you are a bi-polar bear, I would suggest balancing your Indicas and Sativas accordingly. Depression can sometimes create more sleeplessness than the 'ups', if you're that sort of bear. Personally speaking, White Dawg / Purple Dawg for pain / relaxation and Mimosa / Haze / Ammo strains for depression, motivation and exercise (which will help the depression even more). Hope this helps!

Thanks very much for the advice. Unfortunately due to my ME/CFS even light exercise can cause me extreme pain and illness. It's a cruel thing but the advice for coping with ME/CFS is often the opposite of the advice for coping with depression.
Thanks again
PB

I suffer from the same sort or problems. Any strain that is indica or Indica dominant will work really well for the above. Sativa strains cant deliver that relief that melt away the pain like a good old sadative Indica. If the seller dosent specify what the indica/sativa ratio is then i search the web for (FLOWER NAME- strain review) Sites like Leafy and allbud will give details on the indica/sativa ratio and the effects, ie pain relief.
You take care brother

Thanks very much for the advice. I'm using weed as it seems to work better and have fewer side effects compared to opiates.

I hear you there, shame our medical proffesionals are wrongly educated on our beloved medicenal plant cannabis. But are willing to hand out highly addictive opiates which kill more people than they help, they dont relief pain as good as cannabis and mess you right up. you can try a sativa for they day time like monwohmon suggested but you sound like your in as much pain as I am and they dont touch the pain for me.
I hope you can find some relief, much love Hs

Thanks for the info. I will experiment.

Thanks so much for your kind words. I am having therapy and doing what I can to get as well as I can.

👍

Strains with a good level of CBD, can also compliment the effects of the, I don't know the science though. Why not have a look into our Gorilla Skittlez? Best of luck.

Not wishing to hijack this thread at all, it’s been really insightful.

I would be truly grateful if there are any suggestions to treat the symptoms of fibromyalgia?

I am currently in a very bad place physically but I don’t smoke, so would ideally need edibles/carts (I have a vape pen) that can help reduce the pain and associated anxiety.

I am a regular buyer of MJ Concentrates wellness oils and have been using these for some time, but I am always keen to hear other suggestions, particularly as my condition has recently worsened significantly.

Thanks Biggers x

Hi
Currently for my Fibromyalgia, I'm using prescription meds (antidepressants, Gabapentin), plus some different strains with an Argo Arizer dry herb vape. It is definitely making life easier to cope with.

Thanks PB.

Can I ask how your fibromyalgia was ultimately diagnosed please? I’m going via the NHS at the moment and it’s a real challenge to get an official diagnosis. I have been shunted off for physio as my blood tests didn’t show signs of inflammation etc, when actually stretching and bending is too painful due to the stiffness in my spine/joints. I’ve been in discomfort for over 30 years now!

I was diagnosed some years ago with cervical spondylosis and also had a lumbar spinal fusion. Clearly my back is fucked, and I’ll just have to rely on edibles for a pain outlet. Seems traditional medicine doesn’t help me.

Any advice/insight you can offer on fibromyalgia I’d be very grateful.

Hi, I almost ashamed to admit that for me the diagnosis was really easy. I told my doctor my symptoms and was diagnosed job done. Maybe try another doctor.

I'm on Gabapentin and that has taken the edges off the pain, I also have 30mg Co-Codamol for the worst days. These combined with vaping weed keep me comfortable for at least most of the day. For me personally the fatigue has been the most debilitating and treatment resistant symptom.

There's a lot of alternative medicine snake oil salesmen ready to sell you expensive placeboes when it comes to any chronic conditions. But for me Gabapentin + weed+ occasional co-codamol seems the best option.

PB

Thanks PB, and good luck in managing your symptoms mate.

Try my Rso. It will blow your socks off. And may make life a little easier for you

Happy your on-board Polar Bear

I'm in the same boat (apart from fibromyalgia) and what I do is get distillate and mix in the terpenes for either Bubba Kush or Grand Daddy Purp (both heavy indicas) and that really helps me, especially with keeping the PTSD night terrors away. Obviously ymmv, though it's always worth a shot! Those two strains are my all time favourites because they help me out medicinally so well!

PTST Night terrors can be sorted and proper sleep every night. Distillate is plain. You need full spectrum. Hit me a private message and I'll send you a sample that will sort you out from word 'go'

Thanks, I haven't experimented with any concentrates yet, I've just been vaping bud. I'm still amazed how much things have changed in the 25 years since I last used weed. I got some Wedding Cake last week and wow 😮 🤩 .

Think Its the end of the road here for ROI Biggys. have lost close to 600euro in the last 6 months with seizures....took a break for few weeks, ordered again and 3 out of 3 seized.
Just not viable...as the thing is vendors could improve stealth but dont seem to be bothered...UK & EU stealth wont work for ROI,

Its a real shame as we are really in weed poverty in ireland....lucky if u get some Amnesia..God damn disgrace, can someone in this place stand up so something for Irish buyers!

Having trouble to,2 of last 3 never made it,weed removed and letter from customs instead,heartbreaking it is,

Same here I’ve had the last 2 siezed from RB and a 3rd should land today but not feeling very optimistic now. Looks like the new sorting office in Dublin 12 are intercepting everything!!

so, did it land?..

Not yet but no letter

Been waiting 2 weeks on 2xRB and TGT. Before was 7 days max. I'm not hopeful :(

all seized

So ROI is in complete weed lockdown...
so sad!..

Was it weed or do they stop the hash too now?..
(me only weed got seized)

Another seizure notice, my 3rd in 3 month. Only 1 order went through :/.

Since I have 3 seizure (with their date and seizure reference number), i can do some stats!

Assuming that the seizure reference number are incremented by 1 at each seizure, the "Dublin Parcel Hub, Oak road, Knockmitten, Dublin 12" seems to average 88 seizure per day (or 1 seizure every 5 minute on a 8hour day)...

NB: The last seizure I got, the seller sent 7g, but the officer who seized (S. Martin) only reported 3.5g!

So, if revenue.ie is reading our posts (which I'm pretty sure they do): Please investigate agent S. Martin; cause
he is a fucking pot smoker too!!!

ah...shite thats not good to hear, if they are getting the stuff at that rate I would think they are scanning the envelopes or at least the ones from the uk this is not good......guess we have to just see if this is just a short term operation or if the is going to continue longterm

Well, from discussing with the sellers (RB, SH and Hootang): they do not get seized very often with their other customers. So I would rather think that once we get seize once (using ultra carefull random checks like dogs) we (our name and/or address) are on a sort of red list that gets flagged for extra checking each time...

I'll try to be delivered to a Belfast friend with completely different name and address and let you guys now...

Over my last 5 orders (March, April, May) 2 have been seized, 1 went through and 2 are still in stand-by for more than 3 weeks now (no seizure notice, but not parcel either).

Of the 2 seized orders: 1 was from the UK and the other was from spain...
I don't understand why orders from spain will still go through custom...

I just made my first order in a long time on here. I'm hoping it comes I ordered 14g of weed from DRUGSINCUK so far seems good. Hoping it will arrive this week and not a customs letter in it's stead. I hope things are getting through for other people right now??

Never had anything siezed from DUIK so fingers crossed for you! Let us know if it gets through!

Update: Got that package this morning, amazing weed! 14.5 on the dot and just lovely smoke. I'm so happy it snuck through customs cause that would have been heartbreaking. The stealth is very good obviously not going to say anything here but It's very good. Absolutely no smell at all. Will definitely be ordering from DUIK again their stuff is getting through customs and it's great prices for great weed.

That's good to hear man, nothing came this morning so tomorrow would be the 8th day i shipping (I've been told by another guy that it takes 8 days here) so I'm very much so hoping to wake up and fid 14g of weed in my post box!

Sublime?? is that predictive text for Dublin or are ya in a higher mental state :) looks like Im gonna have to change my name because Im running out of addresses
