As somebody who doesn't give one-iota-of-a-fuck about smoking weed or what you personally choose to do in your free time (veteran of the >3.5g a day squad):

It REALLY pains me to see users like Lemmy.World's FlyingSquid borderline killing themselves because quitting (even for 2 weeks) is too much to ask.

Not only that, this user can afford the MAYO clinic in the states and yet somehow NOBODY (even the doctors) in his life has told him he should put it on pause (or at the bare minimum, try switching brands to see if pesticides are the issue, or even try changing the strain itself to see if his favorite sativa is actively working against his GI issues)

Is this a rage bait account? He keeps posting random info about his medical issues (and specifically asks for advice) and then quite literally screams into his keyboard that they aren't doctors and that they don't know his particular situation.

Because I know you have an account over here as well Squid, If you haven't eaten for months and vomit every morning (and still smoke on a near constant basis) just consider reading the following:

No Symptoms? Don't read this. Do whatever the fuck you want to.

Again, I give 0 shits if you run yourself into the ground. But if you've ever thought "why does my stomach hurt so much every morning?..." perhaps consider a very brief pause just to see if it helps.

It's a real douche move to question a person's illness publicly this way.

If you actually care, DM them or respond in the comments. Otherwise just downvote their post, move on, or block them.

Don't broadcast your drama like a toddler.

Generally I would agree with you, but given Squids efforts at publicizing his ordeal I'd say everything is fair game.

What a waste of a post. Like so much so it needs to be pointed out and not just downvoted.

Just block him? I'm not a big fan of reading a medical issue blog either, so I just blocked him and everything is fine. No offense intended to Mr Squid either, medical issues are just stressful to read about all the time.
