I'm an occasional user of weed, used to be much more frequent years ago, but nowadays I really enjoy the clarity and energy and physical strength and healthy feeling of being sober. But I find when I am getting really overly stressed out about things in life and being extremely hard on myself, some edibles go a really long way in helping me let go and maintain a healthier mindset. Sometimes, the next day I feel like poop all day after an edible. Last night I was doing well, and I had the idea to eat an edible which was cool but now today I went to the gym and just had no drive, I really had to push myself to just do a mediocre workout. and I just feel guilty like, I'm fucking up my health and goals by doing this shit.

Obviously, if I dont like what it does, then I shouldnt do it. I know this isnt a sobriety forum or a mental health forum, but I just wanted to know if anyone older had any advice for me regarding this shit. Im 27, and its like, i end up feeling guilty like I'm hurting myself and regretting taking myself out of a mindset where i was doing really good, to get high for a night and then feel like shit the next day and have to go through basically a hangover to feel alright again.

Its weird because when i was younger, i didnt give a fuck about anything and i used alot of hard drugs and pills, and then i put that all behind me and got serious about clean diet, lifting, and discipline in general. But one thing i struggle with is letting go, i have trouble letting myself just be myself, now i care about everything so much that i dont let myself live (as you can see). And i find weed helps me to let go, even after the fact.. but now that i truly appreciate who i am and feel a sense of self worth, I feel like im just shitting all over that by even taking a 20mg weed edible which in the grand scheme of things isnt that big of a deal, I dont drink, I dont use any other drugs and I eat very clean, try to avoid all chemicals as possible.

The core of what I'm saying is basically I have an irrational fear that if I fuck up in any little way, that I'm throwing everything away such as my physique, looks, mental health, gym progress and strength, etc. And yes, I recognize that it is irrational and kind of neurotic and crazy and I hate that.

Exactly what kind of gummies I know they make many different kinds. As far as the occasional weed smoking it could actually be beneficial, got to have a healthy mind body connection not just body, everyone that I know that uses gear and weed swear by it. It sounds like though you perhaps have severe anxiety and may need to explore other avenues whether it be therapy, drugs, or peptides.
I guess every time I've tried weed I've gotten fucked up shit. I become so tired and extremely paranoid, like tin foil headgear and close all the blinds and start peeking out of them paranoid and slow I become so slow it's like slow motion. Definitely not a pleasurable experience for me.

@chunch I get the hangover more so from edibles then smoking. Going with a lower dose isn't as fun but helps with the hangover next day. I find the main ingredient in edibles, the distillate, just hits me differently than smoking.

@Thrawn I used to get the paranoia as well because I'd try to smoke like I did when I was younger, when the thc content wasn't as potent, also sativa just induces the anxiety/paranoia in me with its upping energy making my busy head even more busier. I can only resort to indica now, its more calming and even then I only take few hits to help sleep.

@Bro Bundy that looks mad caked the trichomes on that thing, crazy.
