If it weren't for the weed, I don't think I'd ever eat, my autistic ass just wouldn't think of it.
But also if all it takes is ripping open a packet and pouring stuff out to have ready to chew food (but not liquid or mush, the texture ๐ซ), it's a winner. Because eventually I get to the point where I feel sick and NEED FOOD NOW or I'll throw up acid.
Brains are weird.
I can go from completely food averse/nauseous to making 5 star meals in my kitchen after a good visit with miss mary jane lmaoo
Consistently relying on weed to give you an appetite can make you dependent on it to feel hungry. Note how most heavy long term smokers you know are thin as rails.
If you happen to have this problem, however, a meal replacement drink like Soylent can be a godsend. It's pretty hard to eat a nutritious 2000 calories if you have to wait until you're really high at 9pm to start eating.
Absolutely. I've been taking regular breaks after smoking constantly for about a year and it took a couple days to actually have an appetite again
idk every long time heavy weed user I know has hella munchies and are either slightly or really fat, myself included lol
I'd much rather be dependent on weed thanks (and am for other medical needs) lol
Very relatable. Bless the weed.
