    I spent 20 years on cannabis. It has its own negatives. It will slowly steal your ability to cope emotionally with stress. I’m back to zero meds. I also trialed Ritalin and Wellbutrin. Wellbutrin made me feel like I wasn’t myself and Ritalin took away my appetite to the point I would have low energy and headaches from not eating.

    Cannabis is my drug of choice but I like it too much

      Ritalin did basically nothing, from what I remember. Wellbutrin turned me into a teenage rage monster. I hated it and finally used that anger to convince my parents I shouldn’t be taking it.

      I haven’t had marijuana slowly steal my ability to deal with stress, but I’ve noticed that it’s not something I have to do every day, or to excess, to get the positive effects on my ability to focus.
