Is Blue Dream high in CBDs? We're on a trip and she got that strain, and I tried it to get rid of a headache (being numb all over being better than a migraine). Well it got rid of my headache almost immediately, but it was also an eye opener. I mean that literally, it was like drinking 10 cups of coffee and getting a full body massage at the same time. I might like it a little too much as I pretty much replaced my coffee during the day with it. I was just curious if CBD content might be why I have such a different reaction. From what I've gathered its the only sativa dominant strain I've ever tried, so that might also have something to do with it.
Blue dream is a medical .....so yes has some CBDs in it but i do not know the breeder of the seeds so i can not give u a %

i smoked the stuff.........it is strong .....it is good for relaxing and sleeping (destresser)
and Yes the it is the fact that the weed is medical with CBDs (it is not a get u high to see mars stuff) it is ment to do what it did for u

i am glad u finally got to see why we like it so much ...........sativa weed is a body high effect indica is more a mind high
as for it replacing coffee (that can be a great thing weed has alot of good healing things to it ) coffee just wakes u up and makes u need to poop

just to help u out later
CottonMounth Releaver .........50% sprite 50% Lemonaid (works every time 1 sip something to do with lemons and bubbles i think)
Munchies .............depending on if u a sweet or salty person .......keep a few candybar or salty chips around (warning fiber one bars are not munchie snacks u will blow out your ass if u eat 2/3 )


and just for fun..........try having a joint with a glass of iced tea or a cup of hot tea ( tea is good for u so is weed double good health whammy ) next time u see the doctor your bp will be lower and so is your lcl and hcl

A lot of it may depend on how much her personality changes when she's high, and if you are equally in love with her high self and her not high self. Also, if the core aspects of your relationship and your bond have continuity - are still there whether she's high or not - seems to impact the cohesiveness of this type of unequal relationship. It seems to me that healthy relationships are built on honesty and communication, so whether you can stay together is only half the question, the other half is whether you can stay together and be completely honest with each other. If staying together requires less than full honestly, then how together are you? If you both want to be together ignoring this discontinuity and you are equally content with that, then you're good to go -- because in the end, as long as you are both satisfied with the inevitable imperfection of your relationship, then it can continue.

Another thing you can look at, if you want to go there, is why does a person get high every day, several times a day? That's a rabbit hole you might want to jump into or you might want to avoid. Living with a person who is high because life is stressful and this makes it easier to bear, is one thing. Living with a person with serious unresolved issues that is using pot as method of long-term denial and avoidance, that is a person who can be sitting next to you on the couch, but they are not really there.

My wife is high 90% of the time when she's around me (the only time she's not high, is when she's at work). On non-work days, she's starts before her morning coffee and is various degrees of buzzed all day long. I only very rarely get high. I have watched my wife closely, and in the end there definitely is a difference in her personality while she is high, but the change is not really any greater than the general mood swings or perspective changes that anyone goes through in an average day or week. Yes, her mood changes are induced, but her core nature never changes, only some of her rough edges seem to smooth out. Would years of therapy be a better solution? We'll never know, so my personal answer to your question is; I respect and love this person for who she is, and I accept that smoking pot is a big part of it. It's all a package.

Life is inherently incomprehensible, as we are living beings who have evolved with a capacity to conceive of questions, whose answers are unknowable to us. So we live at the edge of insanity all the time, it is the underlying core of every conscious moment. In each moment of every day, we are in a constant process of creating a sense of self and a place in the world while unable to fully define the limits of our influence on the so-called common reality, and simultaneously aware of our finite natures (i.e. our own inevitable death). We fill all of these voids in with stories, because that's the best we can do. For some people, this bizarre existence of being a biological creature experiencing sensory input fused with persistent brain chemistry experienced as an emotional component to everything we perceive... is maddening. If getting stoned is what someone needs to do to reconcile the inconceivable predicament we find ourselves in, so be it. It could be worse.

And yes, [last night when I wrote this] is one of the very rare nights during which I partook.

We can stay together and be honest with each other. My main concern was that weed was such a big part of her life that she wouldn't want to be with someone who couldn't share that with her. I felt much better about it after talking with her about it; like you said communication is key. I think letting myself get afraid of how she might react if I didn't like weed may have contributed to my bad reaction to it, as I've been smoking almost every day since 4/20 and I haven't had the numbing reaction since. What we are smoking now doesn't give me the charge that Blue Dream did but its nice.

You have by far given the best explanation I have ever heard for why people smoke weed. I hope it is okay if I quote that last paragraph on Facebook.

Thanks for that. Pot treats us all differently. I can't to paint when I'm high, but I don't seem to have a problem writing. The question that this thread poses is close to home for me, so it's something I have thought about and revisit from time to time.
