Has Marijuana Gummies/ Chocolates Genuinely Helped You?!

A myHIVteam Member asked a question 💭
Dracut, MA

I was diagnosed with HIV about 6 months ago and am trying gummies for the first time for my mental health. But all I really seem to do on it is space out in front of my tv so thats not cool- Do any of you use / eat gummies or chocolates habitually and have helped heal & grown from them somehow?! Im just trying to figure out my healthiest path and dont want to get caught up in traps!

I use medical marijuana. My preferred method is a metered inhaler, or vape. I prefer this over edibles because I can regulate the dosage better. Before this was available, I took Valium for anxiety and insomnia. I now rarely take Valium. I keep an Indica vape for daytime use. I’m active and motivated, but calm. Later in the day, I usually switch to Indica. With this, I’m more relaxed. For me, I believe it’s better and safer than Valium.

Pepe3 I hope it helps you. We’re in northern Michigan, just to get away from the New Orleans heat.
