Experiment

Cole called it "to take the edge off". Just one drink. The challenge was to quit at one.

I had a nurse say that to me 10 yrs ago; must be standard vernacular.

This is funny to me. We are in between generations and common knowledge. 10 years ago you’d be a criminal.

I get the generation that believed in “Reefer Madness”, but opiates are much more dangerous.

Future generations will not see the stigma we’ve attached to marijuana, while pill pushing pharmaceutical companies will likely still be ruining lives legally.

In short, you would be a much more respectable member of society if you would ask your doctor to prescribe you some Vicodin.

I was prescribed pain killers after the motorcycle launch with 3 broken ribs cracked skull and clavicle required splice plate to reconfigure. I stopped taking them as soon as I left the hospital. Didn't want any issues.

They used to virtually hand out opioids before the crackdowns. Never used them in the prescribed dosage. Left me with a hundred or so 500 sized Tylenols with .5 mg IIRC content. splitting headaches I'd do a half. For aspirin level stuff, a quarter was way better (than aspirin). All gone now, no dependencies, maybe some brain damage. I read it works by changing brain chemistry. I don't know if permanently or what.
And that's the story of the missing edges.

Quit and take a break when you lose your focus

Something I really need to do more of.
