      Sleep talking/walking happens when we dream while in stages of sleep deeper than REM, which means it's really rare and most common in kids. it doesn't happen in REM because that stage is so light your body paralizes itself so you don't act out the dream and wake yourself up. ONLY WAKE UP A SLEEPWALKER IF THEYRE IN A DANGEROUS SITUATION! THIS IS FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY THEY WILL FREAK OUT WHEN THEY SEE THEYRE NOT IN THEIR BED AND CAN ATTACK YOU!!!

    I think people don't give him enough credit on how great a doctor he is. He doesn't immediately judge anyone who self-medicates with alcohol or weed - he's honest on how it may affect the body depending on usage, age, and personal bodily affects. It's even better than he's open to continued learning and doesn't stick to one view.

      Yeh, it definitely is. I tried a bong for like the third time in my life, and nearly passed out as I wasnt used to it, I couldnt move my body, I couldnt breathe, and I think the lack of oxygen and the hit I took was probably what made me delirious. I thought I had died, whilst I was talking to my friends. It was an awful experience. I NEVER thought that marijuana could have an effect on someone like that, but the combination of how we ingested it, being inexperienced, maybe the strain, and it being a drug that just doesnt generally sit well with me (bar a few times) made it a very unpleasant experience. It was terrifying. Thankfully one of my friends was quite good at dealing with the situation, the other one was shaking as he could see that I'd just nearly lost consciousness and I physically was unable to breathe.

    As someone who struggles with social anxiety, major depressive disorder, and cptsd, marijuana has helped me in my mental health journey by helping me curb my anger. It gives me the chance to stop and think, its been very helpful in building skills. Now, when im sober, i can keep my cool, and make better, less dangerous decisions for myself. Weed has been a game changer along with DBT therapy. I would not be as far as i am without BOTH in tandem.

      @K C there is a lot to be said about stereotype threat. That is a legitimate textbook term. Just the peer pressur of your statement is discouraging any progress. I believe recreational use is medicinal. Cannabis is so therapeutic some scientists believe we need it to supplement our newly discovered endocannabinoid system. It has been a part of human history for so long that we have a symbiotic relationship.
      The lack of ambition could actually be a result of a deeply depressing human existence with little purpose other than the propaganda of limitless materialism and planetary domination.

Ideally it’s a temporary solution and it’s a balance between physical health and mental health. I think it’s super important to be informed! It’s important to know the effects and risks of all meds you take weed included. I fully understand the negative effects smoking will have on me and understand the trade offs I’m making! Having medical professionals talk about and destigmatize the mythos around weed is so important.

      Street weed and medical cannabis are not the same the medical cannabis is cultivated to be more medical beneficial than natural cannabis and street weed often has other drugs and chemicals in it to make a unique blend to make it so you can't get your fix from another dealer who sells it cheaper because their weed won't give them the same fix as its a different blend.

    Swimming coach here. Yes on the swimming. He could either swim with no flotation device, use a pull bouey between his legs, or use a small swimmer's tube on his ankles. He only needs a device if he is a sinker, as otherwise his legs might naturally float behind him. Sprinters kick a lot, but distance swimmer's kick much less, and basically practice just using their core muscles to employ their lower body to counter balance their arm movements.

    • @MotionMechanic
      @MotionMechanic 6 років тому +1

      @@QueenVictoria26 , let's try an experiment. If of you l lay in the water face down and hold your breath, straighten out your waist and hold your hands out to your side, do your legs rise or fall? If your stomach is relaxed and your legs sink, your body may have a high bone and muscle density, causing you to sink. The test won't be accurate if your stomach muscles are tight, because that will pull your legs downward. If your legs do float up, then the issue may be that when you are swimming, you may be that you are flexing (bending) your ankles on the downward sweep of the kick, which will be like putting in the brakes in a car, causing you to show down, stop, or even go backwards), or that you are simply making a very deep and large kick. Ideally, in Freestyle, you want to have a small, shallow, fast kick, originating from the hips, with toes pointed and knees mostly straight, making turbulence as you go along.. If you can't fix it, try using fins, they may make the kick too big, but they will tire out your ankles and make them relax.
      Good luck and let us know how this works!

      The medical positives are overwhelming for the most part and I think it should be decriminalizd everywhere and potentially legalized depending on further research. I live in Canada where its legal and so far its worked out pretty well for the most part. Like any recreational drug is definitely has its negatives, i know some friends who started smoking really early (like 13-14) and a few of them have had some serious negative effects on their cognition and overall motivation. I personally cant use it because im super hypersensitive to it, im the guy who takes one drag off a joint and vomits 30 minutes later or is just absolutely couched. Its just not for me overall anyways because I find the high super boring. I think the big one Dr. Mike forgot to mention is its potential for lung cancer when smoked, its not nearly as bad as smoking tobacco but it still has many of the same problems with irritation of the respiratory tract, increased mucus production and a slight reduction in pulmonary fitness (how well your lungs take in oxygen). Any smokable substance also provides a much greater risk for psychological addiction that can be very hard to break. The second biggest long term side effect/risk is cloudy thought and short term memory formation though, my dad has smoked recreationally intermittedly for something like 25-30 years and he has some serious trouble finding the right words, repeating stories and phrases, and thinking things through thoroughly but I do suspect he has adhd like me due to its genetic nature so take that with a grain of salt.

So, it can help you train all the muscles in a group by providing the resistance (which is basically what weight is) no matter what movement you make with them. So, you can do punches, bicep curls, arm lifts, and even get the resistance from pushing back down with the same "weights." All of this without the dangers of hitting yourself with something heavy or dropping them and causing damage (since they are typically made of a type of foam or other light porous material to maximize resistance), and that is only to mention the "dumbbells."

    I really appreciate this view on medical cannabis. I suffered a traumatic brain injury 4 years ago and had only a total of 27 minutes without pain over the first 2 years with the injury. Without cannabis my pain level was at a 9 with limited cognitive capacity. With cannabis (prescribed by my PCP in a legal state) pain went to a 4 and I could perform my ADL's again. For me, it was actually a lifeline stopping seizures and returning the partial blindness that would occur during a particularly bad attack. That said, there came a time later in recovery where I had to learn how to curb use so that I got the still-necessary benefits but not so often as to impair otherwise normal function. It is a balancing act. Like anything else, it can be used to cover your symptoms or to treat them- its up to how you use it and what other co-treatments you follow that makes the difference between the two.

    The "quiet day" one is literally any job where you have to help people. For example, when I was in high school I worked in a restaurant. Anytime anyone said "its slow right now" or anything similar we would get a huge rush. Idk what it is. But it is crazy.
