I got off smokes from 2+ packs a day in 1984. A week hospitalized with breathing issues got me started. Nicorett gum for a couple of weeks, carrot sticks for times I felt I had Micky mouse hands… read more

For the smokers...do you have trouble quitting smoking? What do you do when a craving hits
Lol...
I've been trying the patches, Chantex, Hypnotherapy and acupuncture. Maybe the Bictarvy is driving me to smoke more. I heard that HIV works best when you smoke because it the virus gets asphyxiated by the smoke. I wonder if smoked sausage would do the same thing. OMG now I'm hungry.
Yes it is if you have the willpower
Welp. I havent asked a question in some time so here we go. Lately ive been out of energy. Sometimes in spurts sometimes the fatigue lasts all day. What do you you guys do to boost your energy?
There are days which I feel very fatigued and going home, sit down and do very little seems to help. I regards to the vitamins, my ID doctor prescribed them and she didn't put any limitations on when… read more
I think, pretty sure it was this year I really started smoking marijuana. I'm just a regular social marijuana smoker. I got my first hit Thanksgiving last year cuz I was going through hell with my now ex-boyfriend.
I've been doing a lot of research with different strand and different types. But here's the main question I have to ask.
Is it a good or bad thing to smoke marijuana while you are hiv-positive?

I asked my ID for a recommendation on a smoking cessation and she suggested that i ask my PC for Wellbutrin. She said this was her “favorite” because its a stimulant that helps with depression/anxiety as well as a smoking cessation. I was wondering if anyone out there has ever taken this and what your experience was with it. Thankssss. Much loveeeee 🤪🤪
I'm currently taking it for depression and it's helping me but I don't smoke.

I vape THC. my devise does not entail burning. vaporizing THC and H2O is vape only
I mainly vape because my husband is bothered by smoke smell. He doesn’t mind my vaping. I don’t drink, or do other drugs, so my THC vape smooths lifes edges for me.
Helpful or harmful? I would like to know others opinion on it. Before my diagnosis I was a HEAVY weed & cigarette smoker but, once I got my diagnosis I quit cold turkey. I've cheated of course here and there but, a major difference than before my diagnosis. I was too paranoid that I would get some lung infection. I know cigarettes are a big absolute no-no. But I loves MJ lol. However, some articles I read online say not to smoke while HIV positive but, I've read medical marijuana helps a lot… read more
I use it when in pain. Seems a better choice than opiods
