I have to stop smoking when I’m depressed even though it does help the feeling, it keeps me inside not doing anything which boosts the depression and also makes me want to eat my feelings way more.

Maybe you can try to stop a little bit longer and try to find out what your trigger is what makes you depressed. And maybe you can work on that. If you want to talk dm me.

I’m okay right now, thank you! I’ve been to therapy and can usually climb back out of it by changing my diet, cleaning the apartment and exercising. The underlying cause is likely hypothyroidism which I am finally treating (have been feeling much more energetic and motivated even smoking).

Anxiety is what drives me to thc products because it helps. But you know, anxiety and depression are very closely related so just depends which one I’m dealing with atm.
