When someone who has been sad, distant, not themselves for a while suddenly starts going out of there way to see people, often giving them gifts or possessions don’t assume they got ‘better’. This is the time to really ask them if they are okay; to reach out and not simply accept the answer of ‘fine’ or ‘great’ or ‘never better’. Because for some people the relief of having made the decision to end their life can make them happy, euphoric even. 

He pointed out that often this change in the person is such a relief to their friends and family after having seeing someone they love suffer, they just don’t realise what has caused the change and frankly they don’t want to ‘rock the boat’ because they are just so happy to have the person they love ‘back’. But in reality, the person they love is saying goodbye. 

During the interview, he told the story of a colleague (back when he had a factory job before he became a doctor) who had been depressed for a long time. One day he came in and was really happy, people kept commenting on how good it was that he wasn’t sad and grumpy anymore. He gave people some of his things, took people to lunch. Went home and killed himself. 

He explained that when the police came to talk to people, they told him it was a common story they heard “but they were so much better.” 

So be there for your friends and family. Tell them what they mean to you. Let them talk to you without fear of judgement. LISTEN. Suggest people get help if you think they need it.

It is also present in high amounts in mangoes, hops, lemon grass, West Indian bay tree, verbena and the plant from which it derives it’s name Mercia. Myrcene appears in small amounts in the essential oils of many other plants as well. It’s odor is described as clove-like, earthy, green-vegetative, citrus, fruity with tropical mango and minty nuances. Without going into too much detail, the presence of Myrcene is an important factor in the quality and enjoyment of the high from smoking certain Cannabis strains, particularly those strains that came from tropical climates…namely Sativas. It is possible to enhance the quality of the high from your bud through the addition of Myrcene.

Here is all you need to do - -  eat a mango one hour before smoking your herbage.  The addition of Myrcene to the body from the mango will have a profound impact on the quality of the high. Low potency bud will get the zing you were looking for and high quality flowers will just get better.
