off-topic What do you do to relax after a long day?

[Harsh World]

It can be tough to truly relax after a hard day. Scrolling on your phone might seem like an easy way to unwind, but it usually doesn’t help in the long run.

What do you do to relax after a long day? Do you have any routines or activities that help you feel relaxed or recharged? For me, I really enjoy the feeling I get after getting off the treadmill. Some might call it a “runner’s high.”

For me it's simply listening to music. Music serves to repair my soul.

A simple, yet effective way to relax.

I have music that is constantly on, so I don't find it as a "relaxant" because I never thought of it doing so. However, it probably is to an extent as it's on in the background.

Yes agreed. Music is life.

I listen to music, smoke weed, and watch videos on YouTube.

smoke weed

WIsh it were legal here. Commenting that is grey-zone illegal.

I wish I understood how the government worked here so that I could gather enough support to get it done, at least for this prefecture. It would surely help a lot of those down and out with the increased tax revenue.

I don't smoke, do drugs, pop pills, or drink at all. Don't I sound boring?

I like to listen to music or I’ll find a good movie to watch to help me relax after a long down. If not a movie, I’ll watch a show or two.

No. You're a part of arguably a larger population of people.

Some people like to have fun in other ways. What's considered fun to you, might not be to me, and vice-versa. That doesn't make you boring, it makes you unique.

After a long day like today, I like to go to bed about 30 minutes earlier to just bask in the glory of my Serta memory foam mattress that I have and melt away before it fades into sleepiness.

Then, just get some rest.

It was legalized in Canada for 2 years now I think. We have dispensaries that sell marijuana in almost every town/city.

It was legalized at least 10+ years ago for recreational use where I'm from, and I think it was longer than that for medicinal uses.

I traveled back in like 2014 just to see family and friends and to also take some bong rips and eat delicious edibles.

That's what I'm saying. hehe

In most cases, I make sure to unwind with a very good book or I can even decide to play video game depending on my mood. I can also switch to soothing music or listening to the nature sounds if I wanted.

I wish Texas would legalize it already. It’s legalized in my hometown(Massachusetts). Smh

I think it will be federally legal before it becomes legal in Texas. Then, I don't think Texas will have much say in it.

However, with a lot of people moving from California to Texas, I could see it on the state ballot as an initiative before then too.

Meditate in bed.

It's been decriminalized here. I can get gummies and all kinds of stuff mailed to us!

Meditate in bed.

Once I try to meditate, I will sleep off immediately. I believe that's the meditation working right

I usually like to lay back in my couch, watching a movie or TV show and drink either a beer or scotch. It's my favourite way to steaming off once I'm back home from having a long day.

No thanks. I'd rather not go to jail with hard labor for a couple of years for a single high. I'll fly back to Washington (State) to spark one up before I try to get anything here.

Speaking of which, next year is my 20th high school reunion... so, I probably will soon.

There's definitely going to be enough booze and partying that day. It was the first place I had smoke for the first time in my life years ago. It was a very crazy experience which I'm not in a haste to have one more time.

I didn't go to my 10th, but they went cheap and did it at a public park. So, I don't think there was alcohol allowed as you can't be drunk in public or drink outside of the campgrounds.

I'm pretty sure some still brought alcohol, but they were consuming it discreetly if so.

Yes, I got you. I stopped smoking weed for more than 15 years until it finally became "legal" here. The gummies are great since it doesn't hurt your lungs, and it's also CBD and helps with a lot of different things like pain, RLS, anxiety, etc.

I've already missed by 30th High School reunion. I'm old. lol

 

[Harsh World]

The gummies are great

I forgot that I had six 5mg hard candies in my pocket after I went through security screening at SeaTac on my way to Japan.

I consumed them before I got on the plane, and I swear, I knocked out and woke up in Japan. I was DONE.

I enjoy playing some video games to unwind and I also like listening to music too. I also enjoy posting on forums, well communities I actually enjoy posting on.
