Sometimes it's both. Look this sounds really woo, I work in healthcare in Berkeley CA. I'm a childhood SA survivor. And in 2008-2012 I lived in Calistoga on Susan Boswicks ranch as her personal assistant, the founder of Berkleley Psyschic Institutes and attended the Santa Rosa BPI, I have an extended clairvoyant certification and a very successful private practice on the side of my main career. I have also co-run the Berkeley Essex Goddess Temple/Redwood Tubs for two decades.

I once had a deep soul reading done and was told I'd chosen to make childhood VERY hard for myself. Before birth, my soul made this choice, for the sake of vibrational/spiritual/human growth. One of my first memories of the angels I work with was them taking me from my body when I was assaulted by my moms boyfriend at age 5. It's also the first/only time I dissociated fully out of my body, and was a moment in which I incurred immeasurable brain and psychological damage. My first memories of angels are being on the table in heart surgery before that, I'm a congenital heart patient and had another heart surgery last year in april, the surgeries deepen my mediumship skills, and I'm able to help a LOT of people in my private clairvoyant practice. I don't have any reason to convince you or mind if you don't believe me, of course that's alright. But I think maybe for the matter of those who feel there is some connection between their intuition and their childhood trauma, for those who maybe feel spirit has healed them in immaginable ways no matter how far they have left to go, keep going, everything is energy, not everything is physical, we get one life, be as powerful and beautiful and present as you can be, every day we can become more whole and shine brighter regardless of the darkness we have had to pass through. There is a purpose in the growth of this world and humanity. And you are not alone.

Doesn't prolonged levels of stress degrade immune function? SURELY it's more the other way around?

Weed so loud I forgot my ears were already ringing.

> “The question now is whether these changes in immune cells are a cause or consequence of depression and we hope to examine this in future studies.”

Not yet determined.

It can help push it to the background, especially at bedtime.

>>>EMDR is AMAZING for this. I had one traumatic experience as a kid, was SA'd by my moms boyfriend at 5. And I do emdr weekly with my therapist on the phone, while I watch the ball go back and forth on my laptop and do bilateral tapping on my head/body. It brings traumatic experiences from a 10 to a 0 in terms of distress, turns down how effected we are by triggers in daily life, helps with dissociation/getting back into our body, helps remove trapped emotions in the body, and offers divine perspective we couldnt see ourselves while untangling knots in the brain and actually scientifically rewiring our neurotransmitter pathways for new habits and thoughts. It aint easy, you have to physically, psychologically, and emotionally be in a safe enough place to literally step into and walk through the past, but if you can and have a good therapist you trust it is lifechanging. Also hot baths are great afterwards. A jog, you take a day for self care to rewire and then back to normal life until next session. Its one of the most advanced forms of therapy available, and one of the only for complex-ptsd. Helps my ocd a lot too. Sorry to interject just wanted to put that as an answer to the above question, because it is a specific answer.

Research has shown that it does pass genetically yea.

Unfortunately for me, this explains some things

We focus on what is important to survival, and for victims of this type of trauma, objects aren't the threats or resources. Threats or resources are people and their emotional states. I suspect this is related that I've repeatedly noticed, that also anyone who calls themself an "empath" has childhood trauma. They aren't sensitive or blessed or naturally in tune with the universe, they are simply hyper-reactive to a certain thing as a method of survival.

Narrator: In fact it was the other way around.

Weed makes mine worse and can cause auditory hallucinations, but surprisingly mushrooms causes it to go away completely, albeit temporarily. Sitting in silence is just so refreshing when you're used to that constant noise.

Does this explain why the first sign of me getting a cold is creeping existential dread?

It doesn’t make it go away but it can make me less annoyed.

So it's not the other way around?

Thankfully, mine isn't. It just stays on the same level, volume wise, though it might shift pitch compared to how baked I am.

Mine is much more prominent when I smoke up

This is the exact opposite of reality for me. Weed (especially edibles and flower that is vaped or smoked) make my tinnitus orders of magnitude worse. The only weed product that does not do this is vape pens (but only certain ones for some reason).

Cannabis is also pretty well known for making tinnitus worse, so this study is odd.

Cannabis helps me sleep, and it helps me calm my mind. However, it does nothing to alleviate my tinnitus.

It definitely helps me sleep, without it, the rumble keeps me awake for hours. But no, it doesn't take away the symptoms.
