I was using pretty hard after my mom died. Numbing myself every night for two years, it really messed myself up and my partners life. After taking a break for 4 months I saw and felt what it was doing to me and decided to reduce and use a different form for more control if needed. I take a gummy on fridays and Saturdays now, finally found the best option for me and sticking to it for almost 7 months. Be safe everyone.

Too much of any mind-altering substance will cause mental debilitation at some point. Moderation in all things. I say this as someone who has gone hard on a few different drugs (including alcohol) throughout my life.
