Sounds like we smoke similar amounts of weed per day, and I've been having good results for mild anxiety and depression, and general stress related to work, by microdosing for almost a year now. I just take a Stamets' Stack regime of 0.2g of shrooms, 1g of Lion's Mane and 50mg of flushing Niacin and still smoke just as much. Definitely feel the benefits of this. I've been using RocketDogRonnie for many, many months now and find his products work well for me. Link above.

If you want to trip as a general mood reset then I'd advise about 1.5-2g of shrooms like APE, maybe once a month or so? I'm still not entirely sure how best to fit this into the microdosing regime, but there's a 2 week gap in the regime where you could slot that in, potentially. I always have a joint when I'm waiting to come up, and it works okay for me, usually. My mate gave me some dried Liberty Caps last month and I haven't weighed them yet... They're very straggly.

Happy to send you a weeks worth if you hit me up with a message Harv.
Also have some full spectrum edibles which may not suit a man of your tolerance but might just help take the edge off before sleep if you’re trying a T break.

Amazing gesture from you mate, thank you

Yeah I’ll be honest big trips aren’t for me. Just get extremely paranoid. I did get some GT and B+ from ronnie and did quite enjoy the mild effects a lot more instead of these hero strains.
I love to pick libs at this time of the year, again, a great strength for me.
Thanks for the advice Rux, I genuinely appreciate it - taking it on board as we speak and Lion’s Mane currently in my basket

2 of RDR's Santa's Chocs and Flash Gordon in 4K with high quality surround sound makes for an excellent night. Oodie or equivalent garment to make it super cosy.

Just looking up the regime again and it looks like I should at least be doubling the dose of the Niacin, and maybe only take one capsule of the Lion's Mane. I do regularly get the flush effect from the 50mg though, which is apparently the important aspect. Not entirely sure why. Make sure any Niacin you buy is the flushing effect type as there are 2 formulations of it available from various manufacturers.

Aw, my Dad used to go on about Flash! Still got the videos somewhere, ha.
What mg Lions Mane am I looking at? There are 2000 and 4000 primarily. A good point are my vitamins in general to be fair, probably missing out on a few vital ones in the daytime too

Be careful where you buy from. Anything from china is no good. The air quality is so poor you’re likely to be doing more harm than good.
Cotswolds mushrooms are great.
Get some vitamin e and d. If you take nothing else these will give you the most benefit….i think.

Your Dad should have forced you to watch it ever time it was shown on TV... A classical education.

I had one that was (I'm sure) listed as 1000mg and the dose was 2 capsules. No idea why I went with that. Purity, quite possibly? They've changed the packaging and it's 1 dose for 500mg on it now. That's seemingly too much for the Stack dose specifically, but I'm not splitting capsules up. Try to find a lower dose, or just go with the lower one?

“Medicine” ;-)
Thanks for the assist Rux. And thank you to Ronnie for the little taster pack! Had my first capsule yesterday and just found it very difficult to get into a bad mood, couple things had tested me as well. Looking forward to the journey so thanks again Ron!
Special shoutout to THC23 for the flavours 😁 have a good week guys

Any time mate. Yeah, then that works for you it seems. I get exactly that when it's working well. Stressful scenarios are much less so, somehow. Presumably as it's mainly in our brains, and that causes situational reactions. 0.2g seems to be the sweet spot for me, at least. Looks like you may have outdone me on the Christmas stash dude! The other 2 K4B strains are amazing...

Yeah man! Looking forward to looking back in a couple weeks time, I think I’ll notice the benefits a lot more then.
I tried the Yuzu last night, AM4 tonight and the Lemon Peel tomorrow night. Payday next week, might treat myself to a couple more things then knocking it on the head then

Funny you say that because there are 120 1000mg at £25 and 180 2000mg at £9. Like you say, maybe they’re safer and purer. I think I’ll take ronnies advice and try this Cotswolds Mushrooms for the lions mane as they have a couple of different types, their website definitely reassures me. As for the Niacin, there seems to be a few decent options on Amazon

Hey MightRux

That's what I call chilling out :-)

Can I advise you to drink at least 2 liters of pure water, i.e., not tap or mineral, but spring or re-mineralised distilled water. You can re-mineralise using a couple of grains of celtic salt. Just make sure it's genuine celtic salt. Hydration is extremely important and is always overlooked in disease and malaise. Dehydration impacts brain function tremendously yet is ignored by allopathic doctors, who just love to prescribe psychoactives. I suffered mental health problems for years until some research led me in this direction and couldn't believe how something so simple, yet devastatingly effective, cured most of my health problems. Homeostasis cannot be achieved without proper hydration and mineralisation. Peace, love and good luck my friend.

Maybe microdosing shrooms is the answer, you wont be taking enough to trip so would avoid triggering the anxiety and will help give you the uplift in your general mood you are looking for, I'm adding a link for Fungal-Cate, its worth shooting her a message, shes proper knowledgeable on this stuff and i'm sure will help you choose the right path.

Also i know someone who struggles with anxiety and they tend to avoid Indicas when smoking as the Sativas dont set it off, could be worth testing the theory for yourself to see if one or the other helps you more.

Nice thanks man! Yeah I only get sativa from my clinic, indica is no good to me. I love my flavours which are naturally indica based but they don’t bother me too much if I moderate it
Thanks for your help mate

No worries, hope you figure it out, sounds like the Sativa thing is similar for you as it is for my mate.

I really like smaller doses of shrooms in my old age, 1.5 here, 2g there, gives me a couple of hours of nice borderline stuff, a little bit of technicolour, some nice body vibes and gets me into a really nice mind state, it always puts a little spring back in my step too.

Just to note, different strains have different strength. 2g of golden teachers is a strong dose, 2g of liberty caps is a heroic dose.

Research the psilocybin content of your shrooms before whacking 1.5-2g, that is a high dose.

Yeah you are right and its good advice, research everything as much as possible, it's the best way to keep yourself safe.
I should've pointed out if i'm messing with with stronger strains then 1.5 is normally where I land for my little vibe sessions.

Liberty caps though 😵‍💫💜💚

This possibly isn't the answer you're hoping for but my advice would be to try and dial back a little bit on the smoke. I'd say 5g a day is quite a lot, especially if you work full-time. You must roll big joints! 😂

I used to smoke all day, every day and it ended up being counterproductive. I smoke weed to help with my mental health but when I was doing it all day long, it stopped helping and I noticed my low moods returning much more often. Once I managed to cut down, I noticed a definite improvement in my mindset. I didn't even have to stop smoking every day, it was just about reducing the number of times I smoked each day.

The main thing for me is waiting until later in the day to have my first smoke/vape. If I go at it first thing, I tend to get stuck in a rut for the day and don't really feel the benefit of anything else I smoke that day.

I'd second the idea of microdosing shrooms. If you can do that first thing and avoid smoking until later in the day then you might see a difference.

Hope you manage to find something that works for you anyway.

I smoke around a gram with my vape in work and my joints are about 1.5g in each which I find a nice amount with a brew! But it’s funny you say this, as I am slowly starting to point my finger at the weed being a result of my moods. But I fucking love it. Weird?
Thanks for the support, Ed! I will try microdosing, a little bit more gym/sauna and a few cold showers in the morning! I’d attempt to leave my vape at home and not bring it in but that’s no good for everyone I work with 😂

Me too, I'm late 40s and I've been smoking daily for about 30 years now and still absolutely love it. 🫠

Have you tried distillate vapes for when you're at work? They're really strong so not much required however I find that the lack of full spectrum cannabinoids means I get high but don't get the Indica or Sativa traits. It also means that when I go back to vaping bud, it hits that little bit harder than if I'd been on flower all day.

Good luck anyway mate. 👍

I’ve always got a couple of vapes in the van but I do genuinely prefer using my prescribed stuff, really helps me out I’ll be honest. That’s what I love about dry herb vaping too is when I get back and roll a nice flavour which will be indica dominant, I don’t get anxious because I’ve slowly built up a tolerance throughout the day!
Thanks again Ed

Lush BitzNBuds give us a try

I would recommend taking mushrooms whilest you're in a good head space only.
If you feel hardcore you can try my Natalensis, it's a very strong strain. I found 1g can be very intensly uplifting for at least 4 hours

I try to be as honest as I can in my reviews but I learnt pretty quickly to not trust any of the reviews on here unless there is a decent write up.

I've seen a few 10/10 reviews that admit they have not tried the product yet....so what exactly are you reviewing?

I think the problem is some users give a 10/10 if they get the weight they ordered and it shows up.

That’s it! Which when they state it you can choose to ignore it but yeah 10/10 because it’s arrived. Would be nice to have a review system that’s based on product, stealth, accuracy of description, comms etc. would make my life a lot easier anyway!

I try to be honest with my words but I rarely give a lower rating without a good reason. A 10/10 on a $60 qtr is likely to not be the same 10/10 on a sealed pack of imported jungle boys. I base it on did I get what I paid for.

I can vouch for hash collective, I’ve used them on my personal account, top end stuff.
We have some unbranded stuff on our menu that might be of interest but no UK on there at the minute!

Tried some of your diamond drip the other day, terpy as..,

Absolutely gorgeous aren’t they? We can’t get enough!

If anyone could recommend some vendors who genuinely sell mega product I would appreciate it please. Dont care about the price

Do check our store. We have top shelf Cali in. The Cali Kush Farms we'd consider incredible value for the price.

Nice man had their biker kush earlier this year! Not found you before

Personally I can recommend Green Cat (on the cheaper side but honestly he has some pretty high quality bud) & Dr Distillate (more for concs but he has some really nice flower tbh). I tried DruidsMagic and they had really nice organic flower, not sure thats what you would want though.

TheHashCollective are on my try list, same as RadarBreeder and TheGentlemanDealer, check out their menus but can't personally recommend them yet.

For hash I can recommend - Eddys Hash Bar (bit pricey) and TheGoodStuff or Nero for cheaper but high quality Moroccan.

TheHashCollective23 have the best weed over had off here worth a try

I’ve started looking at the bit after the decimal point, so a 9.8/10 is a 8/10 and so on.
Couple of my go to’s are Keep It Green and TheGoodStuff.

Dude check out TheGoodStuff, banging hash at fair prices (and I mean fair). Recently bought 20g of this Lemon Cookie dry tek so can recommend that (got my eye on the High Octane at the moment).

With the exception of the freaks (lol) that put '10/10 not tried yet' I think most aren't being dishonest, they are calling it as they find it (and yeah some are just thrilled to actually get it!). I've had stuff thats gone straight in the bin that many have raved about, I've raved about gear that others don't like. So like all reviews really its just a bit of guidance.

I ignore any review scores that can't be bothered to add a few notes of explanation...

"Say No 2 drugs ' Started doing flower along with there carts. Ive not tried there weed yet. But with it Genuinely coming from the USA. I imagine it has to be good bud from there 😉🤔

"mesmerising flower with hint of candy followed by a flush of fruity citrusy gas"

Found it funny til I read this bit and it looks awfully similiar to what I got coming through the door 😭 karma hahaha

Its only my experience but i have tried lots of vendors at small amounts and then those that have the important bits for me i continue to use stealth comms and the product being as advertised ( not expecting miracles on a 30 doller 8th but also expecting wow factor on a 65 doller 8th. Again for me the reviews i dont pay much attention to i more look at vendor rating of 9.6 etc and amount of sales. Were buying weed online things go wrong mistakes can be made but low and slow and when do find the vendors that meet your needs keep using them and dip your toes now and again. Personally and recently iv found sensi carts diamond extracts rocket dog hash sultan medi mart all tick boxes im over 50 buys deep now and can honestly say had 1 issue that was resolved by vendor with good communication. In saying that its shit when your hard earned coin wasted but i see topics like shake/ trim not very potent i mean whats the expectation of the shit u sweep up off the floor for 40 dollers delivered not hating on shake prob is some decent stuff about but after all said done it is the bottom barrel off a grow. Hope you find some decent stuff i used to use the gentleman for buds their menu is superb only reason i dont is prefering the carts and edibles atm

forgot odins decarbed is sensational a real real bargain defo worth a punt

I'll second the shout for Odin's hash. I don't have the ability to describe gear the way some can , but Odin gear tastes good and hits good which is what I want. I also had a multi pack buy from @Hash Sultan last week worth a shot for about $40 , the G13 is very good

loving hash sultan atm mate dont even really smoke js anymore but their hash is seriously good - im like you cant really describe odins just is unreal always overweight his stealth makes me laugh and his comms on point.

The buy came in with a 1.5 of their homemade stuff as a bonus, very floral hard stuff but melts and fluffs easily enough under a light heat

Yeah nice always been intrigued by that decarb!! Just a bit nervous 😂😂 I hate edibles cause they’re too strong and very much smoke sativa for medical purposes so always been scared to try the decarb 😂😂 I’ve bought my flower off keep it green and Riley packs and my dabs off pink leaf farms since this post and never had issues!

dont be nervous of decarb but if makimg a joint put as much in as you did in at school when 3 of u chipping in for 8th of soapbar a little sprinkle plenty🤣

I've just had some Tokyo Snow and RS11 (not the mids listing) from Riley Packs and it is great stuff. Also got some of the Drip Diamonds from PLF and that was also decent stuff.

My advice would be to never buy anything based purely on reviews on here or anywhere in the world for that matter. There is no guarantee that you are receiving what they have reviewed through batch variance or shenanigans. Find a vendor who you trust and stick with them, or for me when I want variety I just take the risk win some lose some. If you want a specific flavour profile then ask your favourite vendor or on a topic and you will get plenty of suggestions. All the best👍

The lemon haze we can grab is literally the top 3 hazes I’ve had. We’ll be sticking it on the store later mate 👍🏻
I’ve attached a photo of the smoke for you,
PLF

Hey, I think this Silver Bubble from Green Cat was one of the best Hazes I've had for a while💜💚👊🏻

I had some gypsy haze from here. It was outstanding.

Our Lemon and super silver are about as good as they get my friend 😎

420buds has a lovely amnesia haze at the moment. Gorgeous flavour and nice strong long lasting high. Tastes of lime flavoured sweets.

Just listed a new organic grown batch grown by one of the best in the UK

https://littlebiggy.net/item/cy40YyWFrXuPYQ3vHEhnyUeA/view/p

This was nice. One to keep an eye on.

I ended up getting some of the lemon amnesia from riley_packs in the end. Found that one you sent afterwards looks gorgeous, ended up saving the link for my refill thanks 👍🏻

If it is just a tolerance thing get some cbd flower, extract or a vape I find it helps me to extend T-breaks and still sleep. If you have done a week and you get some flower from some of the legal cbd sites it will feel like it hits you and it will tide you over then when you get some decent thc it will absolutely destroy you. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to take long to get your tolerance back no matter how long you break for. Good luck mate 👍

belting idea!! sometimes i do wonder if i have a smoking addiction more than a cannabis addiction so this might actually work out well! thanks a lot!

Cream of chicken soup, music, exercise, concentrate your time on others, get things done.

wow soup eh! wont moan at that

Along with all the great hints and tips below, let me add…Be careful driving while detoxing.
I find my driving abilities deteriorate and I make manoeuvres that I normally wouldn’t do. Might have something to do with brain fog but it’s the worst part (and the sweats while sleeping at night) I find.There’ll be parts of my day to day car journey I won’t remember. There was one time I couldn’t even remember paying the toll at the toll bridge on the motorway.

I would say stay busy, get some work done or do your own hobbies and that'll manage to get you through the days. In terms of sleep, you kinda just have to accept the fact you're either gonna sleep like shit or not at all. although, i like to tire myself out in the day by working out a lot so even though im not smoking that night, i can still manage to sleep. OR i pull an all-nighter the night before lmao. anyways, i'm going abroad in like 2 weeks so im treating that as a lil T break :)

thanks mate

I have some CBD rosin, with natural cannabis terps. £20 a gram as well. Dm me if interested

Sounds nice😋

It’s lovely especially if you 1:1 with thc

everyone’s been really helpful thanks a lot guys! on day 7 now and is a lot easier already. not sure if anyone else is the same but I’ve been sleeping like a log!!! weed actually makes me wake up early but after day 5 I got like 9 hours sleep for the first time since I was about 10 😂😂

Have you been having crazy dreams?
I was reading your previous comments. When I was hooked I was smoking weed mixed with tobacco- I never smoked cigs on their own. I think I was hooked on the tobacco rather than the bud cos since I switched to dry herb vaping that craving went

not smoked tobacco for years mate, been rolling pure joints for about 5 years now but yeah I never usually dream but the past two nights they’ve been really really vivid! so strange

We enjoy our micro doses to assist with detoxing! Works a treat for the cravings ;-)

Glass bong or hash pipe is your best bet for smoking hash pure yeah.

Or you could hot knife I guess lol but seems daft to that these days. For that old school experience xD

My mate order a 3.5 of biscotti runtz and it was fire. He ordered an Oz and got sent a completely diff bud, comped yet another diff bud after that.

Clear to see it's legit place I'm sure mate. Was browsing last night that vendor. I seem to have tho a certain few vendors I switch from I think if the delivery options is attractive for the reviews also there is a fair few who have made orders and I see have all recieved. The biscotti runtz look good

Hey dude.
I have teachers amongst a bunch of others.
All homegrown and hand processed by me. No issues with strength or purity. Hit me up for advice or some mushroom chat any time. ✌🏻

Happy to vouch for the quality of shroom products from RDR, and I've sampled a few.

Storz & Bickel Mighty Vape is good for portable although a little big in hand. Their Volcano model is excellent although not portable - both have excellent build quality and will last you many years past the generous 3 year warranty. For some anecdotal experience: I had my Volcano for 7 years before getting the Mighty.

I've heard good things about the TinyMight2 although the glass tube makes it much more fragile than the Mighty, i think you may be able to replace this with a more durable stem.

Some people also like the DynavapM which requires external heating source like jet lighter although I could never trust myself with this especially when medicating. It is much more affordable than the others.

If you settle with the Mighty I'd recommend the Mighty+ for the faster USB-C charging and the ceramic heating chamber - also the dosing capsules are excellent you can smellproof these easily and then dump the ABV when done.

You’re not on commission are you?! ;-)
The mighty medic is exactly what I’ve got! It’s perfect in every sense apart from the battery which is excessively bad, maybe they sent me a bad one out maybe. I’ll get in touch with them, I appreciate your response 👍🏻

If you are doing 6 uses for up to 10 minutes per then yeah an hours use will definitely use the battery on a Mighty and most portables. The TinyMight2 allows you to quickly switch out the battery and many users keep a rack of rechargeables- they are not expensive. But it’s a very different experience to the Mighty…

Worse experience or better?
Fair enough, surprised it’s that low the battery life but I suppose it is using heat, just not exactly a cheap bit of kit are they

They're never quite right for me with regards to length or width, so I maintain the habit of sticking 3 silver Rizlas together, like a dinosaur.

We call those thunder trumpets where I'm from 😂

Dude!! It's been SO long! Everything alright now?

Yeah man, it's been a while! Everything is a-okay these days, how are you holding up?

If it's a-okay I'm assuming you did the thing. You're a better man than I am. Everything's holding up fine, other than the fact I'm up to smoking an oz of bud a week now, roughly. Never mind the concentrates, the edibles, the RSO, the shrooms, the Lucy, etc. Still have gainful employment though!

Just finishing off my 7th thunder trumpet of the day, and I try not to get up before noon... Could roll an 8th...?

did indeed my friend! It's sure good to have it over with 😅
Can't make light of keeping a job while smoking all that my guy, I'd be way too fried to function 😂 I haven't had the time to dabble too much in the reefer since my return. Budget is about the same though, but I go for high quality occasional smokes rather than the cheap constant ones. I think it works better for me than how I was smoking before tbh 🤷‍♂️ Good to hear you're holding up bud and I'm glad to be back ❤

Well, I think I'm functional, at least!

So, this is my public statement that I'll pay for 7g of any bud you want off here, or any combination to make up that. You're an inspiration to anyone, especially anyone who has the privilege to know you, my friend. Glad you're back too!

Its all too rare to see people having an amicable and friendly interaction respect to both you good sirs, frankly the site could do with less shit housery and more of this 👌🏻

I wholeheartedly agree! How a site where you can order weed to your door can generate so much hate and anger is beyond me. Should be a hippie dippie paradise 😂

More than functional I'd say, you're a superhero!

That's way too generous my friend, your lovely words are more than enough for me ❤ And maybe a pinch of your expertise, if you'd recommend me some good value high end hash or concentrates 👀

People are making me blush a lot lately! I'm far from heroic, but thank you.

I'm sure we can do both? Vendors, hit us up! RealD had some decent hash going on... Whatever you want though, genuinely.

Gotta adming your words had me a bit red in the cheeks as well 😊
I've seen you fight for what's right and stand up to injustice, that's heroic in my book!

I think I read RealD had some isolator on the way, will definitely try to get in on that 🥳

You're a real one!

I have an incredibly focused sense of justice, and always have done; hence my offer dude.

You can keep that chit and call it in at any future date though, as long as I have a little notice.

That's a very admirable quality to have, and it's more than most!

I appreciate you greatly buddy, gonna spark a thunder trumpet now in your honour!

Got the elements papers and two glass filters. I'm a convert. I'm slowly getting good at rolling cannagar joints. Kitchen torch to light.

raw black king size slims

Recently changed from RAW black to houseplant brown rice by OCB free from all the crap

I use Raw cos they come with a pretty tin

what kind of Raws do you use?

Used to do 2 skinners, licked gum from a 3rd paper then peeled off, stuck remaining 2 papers together, less paper, but now getting older it's just the longer single skinners, blue rizla, silver ziz zag, or raws lights

Used gum from zig-zag papers to stick together 2 papers in the middle of joints, strong gum with the old zig-zags

I’m lazy so I just buy elements cones on Amazon 💀

thats the way! 🤣

Been using Smoking (black package) for years. Love them!

what do you like about them?

They're very thin and burn well. I know there may be others just as good as the ones I use, but never felt the need for change! 😅

With you there, been on blacks for years, but then then the Smoking reds came out (even thinner)!

I personally use blazy Susan's, clean burn and a thin vegan paper also. Plus you get 50! in a pack so all round great product for me. They are pink though so do a few odd looks from fellow stoners 🤣

getting all the girls with GIZEH Pink!! 😆

So I used to use the Raw Organic Hemp papers all the time...until I realised that most of the ones sold in shops are fake. I think there's only one authorised outlet that sells them online here, where you're guaranteed to get authentic ones. Smoked them for the natural ingredients etc and god knows what they put in the knock-offs that are sold everywhere in the UK. So I either get Raw Organic Hemp boxes online or OCB Premium papers in the shops, where you can verify the authenticity with a QR code!

we actually had similar issues when purchasing Elements Papers, as those are in our opinion, the best. Bought 5 boxes of knockoff papers and only noticed because the papers wouldnt stick...
fck fakes! fck fake selling vendors!

Absolutely! F**k the fakes - the Raws I was smoking were actually pretty decent knock-offs (except that I don't know what ingredients went into them!), so I didn't notice until I realised the Raw filter tips from that same shop had 'Made in China' on the back haha...so they don't even try to hide it! Then I looked up the issue online.

What I don't understand is - given just how widespread it is with Raw, including on Amazon etc - why doesn't the company do anything about it?? They must be losing shitloads of sales! And it's not like the fakes are any cheaper I think. Maybe it would be a losing battle to try to whack-a-mole the fakes...
