What’s been getting your goat this week?
Hayfever causing you to want to rip your eyes out? Office air conditioning too cold? Get it off your chest here.

Sorry to hear that mate.
I can’t understand such an archaic outlook when it comes to legalisation in this country. Especially when countries around the world are legalising. Germany, legal for medical use since 2017 and I think they’re looking at recreational now as well? Would save the NHS an absolute fortune. Some of the shit they prescribe is nuts. From about 14 I was prescribed 30/500 Co-codamols, that I was taking 4 times a day. I stopped when I, shockingly, became dependent. Doubt I’d have been able to lead the life I have without using weed as pain management.
Hopefully you find something that works mate!
That’s some crazy strong pain killers for a 14 year old!! The nhs just don’t seem to know how to deal with chronic pain, they offer things like cbt which might be OK for psychological issues but when it’s a physical ailment then praying the pain away isn’t going to work.
I am currently on 60mg of Codeine 4 x a day (on bad days, I can usually manage with less) as well as paracetamol and Naproxen. Add in my sleep meds, anxiety meds, stomach meds and they could save a fortune!
What really upsets me is that a shittonne of medical grade cannabis is grown in the UK, but it all - or at least most of it - is exported.
Those must play havoc with your stomach as well! It was actually being on naproxenn that gave the final motivation to try and get medical. I think they need you to have proven you’ve tried two types of medications for your symptons, and since co-codamol was a no, naproxenn giving me hella heartburn was pretty much all the justification they need in order to prescribe medicinal.
And aye, it’s British Sugar as well that grows it! Mental.
