As someone who recently started microdosing and will start growing shrooms, it’s fantastic for overall mood boost, energy, anti anxiety… look into the law surrounding psilocybin and such. A lot of places here in the US outlaw consumption and sales of grown mushrooms, but I’m legally allowed to purchase spores/mycelium to grow myself, which is what I plan to do

Business is gonna business…

I wish lobbying didn’t exist. Essentially entire industries bribing politicians to act on their behalf. Obvious conflicts of interest/monopolizing…

At least it’s legal in my state, and I’m going to start growing in the spring so I can save $200/mo instead of buying from a dispensary

Lobbying. Cannabis is effective as a sleep aid, anti depressant/anxiety, pain medication, recreational drug, among many other things. If it were fully legal and people were aware of it as a substitute to many of the things I listed above, those industries would lose billions of dollars a year. So they have a huge incentive to kick some money toward politicians as endorsements/donations, so the politicians act on their behalf, which is shooting down any federal bill to fully legalize it.

Anecdotal, but that’s the thing with cannabis in my experience… I’ve been smoking/vaping for around 8 years now. Nearly daily. It helps curb my anxiety (most of the time), and helps me relax enough to sleep. I don’t smoke all day like some people, and my tolerance, while higher than it was, is much much lower than a lot of people I know.

I’m excited for when we get a trial on tolerance vs consumption habits or whatnot. There’s a lot we anecdotally ‘know’ about it, but there’s so much we truly don’t know
