Does anxiety increase your heart rate, or does an increased heart rate lead to anxiety? This study (in mice) showed how the brain and the heart work together to contribute to intense emotions like anxiety. To me, this suggests that tools like HRV and biofeedback could be a useful tool for anxiety because they help lower your heart rate.

Mine gets so loud after smoking that it makes me want to step in front of a train. I go through this feeling every single night. I’m legally deaf too so maybe that has something to do with it. I probably wouldn’t hear the train coming anyway.

I have only smoked occasionally, but I use edibles. To be honest, I don’t know a single symptom of anything it doesn’t help with. Headache, sore muscles, stomach ache, insomnia, planters Fasciitis, join pain, depression,…. I honestly can’t think of anything an edible won’t give temporary relief from. Even my apnea goes away sleeping on 5mg.

I assume it might lower blood pressure if that's one of the causes of people's tinnitus.

I'll add another hand to the has lifelong tinnitus, uses cannabis, and I think it helps with various symptoms. I can't say it's been the cause of the cannabis use, but it's yet another thing I hope improves from it.

I can't wait for cannabis to be truly legalized, and commoditized. I'm tired of paying so much for a plant. We've conquered the plant kingdom! I want my just dues!

I highly doubt my tinnitus ringing ever subsides with smoke, but it does seems to be effective going to the bathroom and extended flow everytime.

But ringing, the only thing I can do is leave the Tv on all night, or at least till I drop off, to fake me out that's there's ringing going on with Tv sound.

Just as long as when sleeping, Vacuum cleaner ad doesn't come on for a solid hour long. That's just brutal.

Cheers
