I started taking mushroom supplements about 6 months ago and it seems to help with cognition, pain and sleep. Hass anyone else found this to be true? I want to get off of Lyrica.

No but I have gummies with CBD oil in them with THC the brand I get is called wyld I get the Stativa for daytime when very painful but I cut one piece into four squares bec I am not interested in being high I just want my pain helped. I don't take them every day though I only take them when pain is so bad that I need something to help in the state of Michigan pot and stuff with it in it is legal
Recreationally. I can't take a lot of pain meds and have a sensitive system,and muscle relaxers don't cut it. Also the only thing that ever did help for pain was Vicodin not the. Weak version they try to give now but they won't give us chronic pain people opioids now. The gummies are actually better for your lungs than smoking pot and I get better direct pain relief from them and Bec I don't take them every day the little squares I take work good I start with one piece and if pain is worse I will take another but not taking every day keeps your tolerance low so it's effective it helps of terrible fibromyalgia flair days and my back and legs when they hurt and cramp up. Like I said I don't care about getting high I just want pain help. It's ok if you want to of course and if you do no judgement here at all. But I am sharing what works for me to help I go to a dispensary to get the brand I look for deals on them too Bec usually it's 12-20 bucks for one container of them but worth it doesn't hurt your organs like meds we have to take too. So just a FYI for all my chronic pain suffers out here in the group. Soft hugs šŸ¤—

Thank you for this information. I saw the.WYLD brand gummy recommended by someone on my lung support group for pain. Different than CBD( which I take), they offer a newer one, called CBN. Iā€™m going to try these gummies soon. They are recommended for sleeping and pain. Iā€™m not able to tolerate THC even in low amounts. It drys me out. Probably due to my lung disease.

I take 50 mg CBD capsules with no THC in them.

I'm very interested in the mushrooms, but mushrooms are one of my food sensitivities, boohoo.
