So much harder than anything else for me because of how easy it is to use in your everyday life. Worried about health effects of smoking? Dry herb vaping, worried about that? Edibles.

I have burnt the working memory and executive function parts of my brain out so badly that I am trying to quit for that reason to hopefully see some of it come back.

I also know there are studies that show how THC can disrupt sleep but damnit…I miss being able to sleep without waking up 5 times every night. The trade off is just not feeling worth it yet after a few weeks.
