Trump brought the Regeneracy, just not in the way he expected.

I certainly didn't need detox. I would probably be the last person anyone would want to have around people undergoing withdrawal from booze or drugs. I would not have the requisite empathy for someone talking about bugs all over the ceiling. I have seen people over-medicated on pain-killers; it isn't pretty.

I was told that I might as well have an occasional beer or glass of wine just to dissolve the anxiety that goes with the territory. That is the exact opposite that is suggested to people with chemical dependency. One drink is safer than pills for anxiety. It's the third drink, the one that dissolves reason and conscience,  that creates trouble.

One good thing about Asperger's is that we don't have problems with chemical dependency.

Have you ever considered cannabis?  The potential for abuse is low and strains can be developed for just about everything.  I have one for body pain--I smoke it in the morning so I don't hurt at work, and one for relaxing and getting the anxiety out.  I typically smoke it in the evening (when I need to).

If you plan on using edibles though...be careful.  It takes 45 minutes to an hour to kick in and people often take too much.  IF you go that route I suggest taking one dose, waiting 90 minutes and taking another dose if you need it.

You may or may not get high.  One of my co-workers is using high CBD cannabis to treat her MS, and she doesn't get high off that at all.  I consider it a pleasant side effect.
