Hi My Name Is

Hello everyone. I've been reading the forums for years but never thought about making an account until recently. I am an Organic Outdoor grower, in Oregon. I've been growing for 3 years now, I'm still quite new to alot of the terminology being used, and indoor growing is a whole other ballpark.

I was hit with an unknown illness at 3 y/o it affected my stomach in the worst way, I was up 24/7 with what looked like the flu, I had to go to the hospital periodically to get an IV because I would be so dehydrated. Went to specialist after specialist for over half my life and was stuck in a loop of endless testing. After giving up on the doctors finding any solution I went into remission for a short period where it seemed like everything was normal and it just needed to pass and it came back harder than before took away my appetite caused me to loose 20 pounds in two weeks when I didn't even have 20 pounds to lose. My sleep was affected because I was up random hours of the night. I was prescribed sleeping pills, which would give me nightmares and only make my night worse than it was. I'd be late for school, and was unable to pay attention during class.

When I started smoking Cannabis I noticed a huge change in my life. I was eating more than I would in a whole week in one day, I was sleeping better, I was more active during the day and the mornings which were the worst part of the day we're finally bearable. The day I found out that it got rid of 90% of my symptoms I remember thinking "why couldn't I have found this out sooner"

I now grow 4 plants a year. And every year I learn a whole bunch of new stuff, thanks to everyone here. I greatly appreciate all the help ✌ unfortunately I don't have a journal for the 2 previous grows but I'm trying to keep one this year so check it out

Hey buddy! Isn't it amazing to self medicate without poisoning yourself! Good to hear you have been feeling better. I have been medicating for years and decided to try growing a few plants. It is quite the little experiment! My journal is is in my signature if you want to check it out. ✌
 
:welcome: The cannabinoids in your cannabis probably replaced the lacking endocannabinoids in your system :goodjob:
Just did a little research on what the ECS does for the body and I think you have an extremely valid point. Having an Endocannabinoid deficiency, messes with sleep, appetite, pain etc. And that's all the stuff I have a day to day struggle with. I will have to dive deep and do some major research. Thank you
