Hey everyone, I wanted to ask a question and see if anyone has experienced something similar.

I’ve been smoking for most of my life and, aside from one major panic attack years ago, I never really had issues. After that happened, I took about a year off and slowly eased my way back into it. I’m also currently dealing with costochondritis, which is inflammation around the ribs/chest area.

For the past few months, I’ve been smoking products from a close friend who gets very clean, smooth product that has never caused me any problems. I only take about 2–3 hits and I’m good for the day — nothing excessive like I used to do years ago.

Recently, my friend was out of town, so another buddy recommended a local smoke shop. I ended up buying a THCA indica product from there, and honestly, I regretted it almost immediately. After just two hits, my chest felt like it was burning and I had pain/discomfort for nearly two hours before it finally calmed down.

What confuses me is that I’ve had extensive medical testing done recently — heart, lungs, imaging, etc. — and everything has come back clear. I’m slightly overweight, but otherwise I stay on top of my health. What’s strange is that I’ve had no issues at all with the product from my friend over the last three months, yet the smoke shop product caused such a strong reaction.

My question is: why do some smoke shop products contain things like Delta variants or other additives/cannabinoids? Is there something significantly different about those products compared to more traditional flower? My body reacted very differently to it, and it honestly felt like it did not agree with me at all.

So after multiple specialists everything is clear ive made multiple post here planning on making a video of my daily routine with stretches the only thing I can say is that every time I do the backpod crunch I can here every single bone in my back Crack and I get this amazing relief the only thing I will say i hate is the chest discomfort feels like inflammation everything im stressed other then that I feel like ive made progress but besides that I get a bunch of popping in the front and chest tightens still unfortunately

I’m dealing with a very difficult situation and needed to get this off my chest.

In a previous post, I talked about ongoing issues with my mother-in-law. After a lot of disagreements, I decided to leave. Shortly after, I was asked to come back and was promised things would improve. I was told we were moving into a new place after she sold the house, and she also offered to help me get a work vehicle so I could finally start my own mechanic business.

I trusted that, and I made major decisions based on it. I sold my personal car because I was supposed to purchase a work truck today. I went ahead and got my LLC, organized my tools with help from my friends, and prepared everything so I could start working immediately once I had the truck.

Now everything has changed.

The support I was counting on is no longer there, and I’ve been left without a vehicle and back at square one after I already made all the moves in good faith. It’s honestly frustrating and painful because I built my plans around what I was told.

On top of that, things have gotten worse regarding my daughter. I wanted to take her to see my mother, who hasn’t seen her in over three months. That led to more arguments, and now I’m being told I need to figure things out on my own, even to the point of using Uber just to move my belongings.

Right now I feel overwhelmed, angry, and honestly hurt. I keep asking myself how I let myself get convinced so easily into believing everything would work out. I feel like I trusted the wrong words and made decisions that left me stuck.

What hurts the most is trying to understand how someone who has spoken badly about me and disrespected me still has so much control over access to my own child’s life and decisions I’m trying to make as a father.

I don’t understand why this is happening, and I’m struggling with it emotionally. I feel like I’m falling apart over something I thought I was finally building toward stability in.

I’m trying my best to figure out my next steps and stay grounded for my daughter, but right now I’m just trying to process everything.
