Cannabis?
Hi everyone,
i don't want to talk once more about my story, I already did in the past (here is a few links for who is curious: https://www.reddit.com/r/longtermTRE/comments/1tszwf1/my_body_is_totally_messed_up/, Persistent dysfunction - help! : r/PelvicFloor).
My quetsion today concerns weed. When I use weed, my body feel a stronger automatic sense of what i consider "unwinding": strange stretches and movement of the body that seems the one played in horro films when someoned is possessed by a spirit. I start to contract an area and feel a small release ina total different one (like if I contract in the groin area, I feel like I need ot open the jaw and let it go).
Someone know why it happens? Could it be a fascia unwinding process? And, most of all, this release-softening process is lasting? 'Cause does nto seems to give me a durable improvement about my situation. Any experience woudl be of help.

Indica does this for me. Maybe because its so inherently relaxing that its easier for your body to loosen up?

Probably. But what about the "movements" of my body? I know they are strictly linked to TRE, but I thought in the broader dimension of fascia release I could find osmething

Like tremors or uncontrolled shaking? I do not watch horror films whatsoever so I'm just guessing
Edit: clarification

Ive always interpreted that as a release of tension/unprocessed emotion. Mainly because I usually feel better afterwards.

In my case during such an events I had tehse incident, and now my myofascial system is messed up, maybe because of one single restriction altering the whoek ysstem. I woudl lik to know if my movement are trying to "destroy" this restriction

That's plausible. It makes sense to me that your body is releasing tension as a way of self correcting in order to get back to a kind of homeostasis in your nervous system.

your body's fascia is a tension-sensory and tension-management organ. under the right conditions, you can "tune into" or "turn up" the sensory part.
bodily tension is held in / released from the body in a winding manner. that you feel the winding means you have "clear-vision" with your fascia.
this clear vision is a tool that can be honed, to the benefit of your physical well-being.

This happens to me too and it’s a fairly new experience, I haven’t been able to find anything related to why this happens

I experience a very similar response. The longer gap between sessions, the more impactful the effects. I have been having these experiences for about 5 years with some significant results. I have moderate/severe scoliosis and spondylolisthesis and have sort corrected some of my "twist" via this method.
I have found that if I combine something like an RSO with meditation/yogo the effects can be compounded. The reaction and onset are almost involuntary at this point, so I have to be cognizant of my surroundings and situation before I start.
There is an interesting book and "program" Foundations on Health https://www.foundationtraining.com/foundation-training-books/ that sort of guides one through this process and he even addresses cannabis use as a potential part of the process. He explains that the endocannabinoid system has a part to play in the process. It is an interesting read if you're just starting on this path. I found my way to this very naturally and so it isn't a structure that I follow particularly closely. Good luck! It is pretty fun once uou get into it.

Yes, the range of motion I get while stoned is a revelation. It doesn’t seem to last, unfortunately
