Depression is though, If you feel that you can deal with it, better ask for help.

June 7, 2024 at 10:56 am #31159VM-TzimisceParticipantHow are you doing now, @ratoy? Did you find anything particularly effective to help during that time? Perhaps you can share some tips, if you feel up to it?
June 10, 2024 at 8:41 pm #31174ratoyParticipantOne thing that helped me was CBD vaping. I used my Nexus Smoke whenever I felt down, and it made a big difference. The CBD helped me relax and clear my mind. It wasn’t a magic fix, but it definitely made things easier to handle. If you’re feeling low, it might be worth trying. Just remember to take care of yourself and ask for help if you need it.
