I just wanna say, I'm so grateful for everyone's honesty, I really wasn't expecting such a great response to my q especially because I've searched up this topic before and only saw lectures from other people about it being bad for you etc etc My surgery is 10 July but if anyone wants to chat or anyhing about what you're going through please feel free to message me!

Hey there! Thank you so much for sharing your experience w/harder stuff that's really interesting/concerning. I hope you're doing better now! I've never been into coke but I've done similar which I'll probably think twice about now...

You're so lucky you live somewhere that is so chill w/ weed smoking haha im pretty lucky in that I've never had a problem getting weed but as I mentioned it's a tough conversation to have with medical professionals because 90% of them avoid answering the question and advise you to quit lmao im so excited to here your surgery is so soon!! Good luck! I'd love to hear any updates

Awesome, 2-3 months sounded about right! Did you just go back to smoking? Or ingest it any other ways? (I'm assuming not with brownies hehe)

Hi there, New to this forum but don't feel like I have any other place to go. I just want to emphasize that this post and forum is a judgement free, genuine place for like minded people I really don't want a lecture about how I am "poisoning" my body or going to all this effort to "ruin it." Whilst I respect these types of opinions, I don't need them here as I want to know if there are like-minded individuals out there who are willing to share their experience. I guess this is me more asking questions and wanting advice than telling my story so I'm not really sure where to start... Firstly, I've been smoking marijuana for about 6 years, it's beneficial for me as it calms me (suffering from depression), keeps me creative and helps keep my binge eating under control (I know, contrary to poplar belief but everyone is different and that's okay.) Being in a country (Aus) where marijuana is illegal and also having a surgeon who is close with your family makes it very difficult for me to talk about this to them as most doctors, nurses and surgeons will give you the classic spiel of just not smoking, which is fair. Anyway, I'm saying all this because I want to know how long I should be waiting before I start smoking again? I was thinking around 6 weeks post as I should be healed up by then but wondered if anyone has had experience with this? I just want to clarify. I don't drink alcohol and don't plan on drinking again after surgery and have never touched tobacco/cigarettes in my life however, being a millennial who likes to go out with her friends, I do enjoy experimenting every now and then with more "harder" recreational drugs however, that I don't plan on doing at least 6-12 months after surgery. So, after this massive basically I want to hear your stories, all my stoner friends out there (medicinal or recreational) let me know, how long you waited, if you noticed anything different and if your relationship with food was effected + any other experiences you may have. Again, I want to emphasize that this is a safe, judgment free zone and please refrain from commenting if you disagree with any part of this post and my lifestyle choices. Thanks!
