Greetings,
I have been experimenting w/ sjw for about two weeks now and have noticed a few interesting points about its effects. First of all I just want to express my gratitude for such an informative site. No where else (in all my hours of internet searching) have I found a site providing information as valid as the many personal experiences w/ sjw listed here.
In the past 2 weeks I have definately been aware of a groove I seem to find within the few hrs. after taking a dose. Its not unlike the calm and introspection I find after a good meditation session. I seem to be more in the moment, dealing with whats here rather than having an obsessive interest in the possible failures of the future. While I find these effects very positive I believe I have not yet discovered the full potential of sjw, seeing as how I have only been taking 900 mg a day for two weeks. From what Ive read I should be expecting noticeable results within 2 or 3 more weeks.
Anyway, I wanted to post a message about my experiences with alcohol and marijuana. About a week ago I drank about a 6-pack of beer and smoked some pot while socializing w/ some friends. As the night progressed I seemed to get spacier and less conscious as I would normally under the same circumstance. I left the party feeling very detached and having a hard time being aware of reality. The next day I suffered an incredible hangover feeling aches and pains and mentally very fuzzy. After this experience I laid off the alcohol for a few days and did fine. A few days later I drank two beers in the evening and started to feel somewhat spacy like the other evening so decided to lay off the alcohol. The next day was very similar to the first experience I had (aches pains fatigue spaciness). And a couple other experiements after this one lead me to believe that alcohol and sjw are not meant to be *sob* *sob*. And perhaps marijuana too although many other people claim otherwise. When youre out drinking w/ sjw, please be careful and underdrink. View your experience through a microscope and notice your state of mind after a couple drinks. I'm not sure if the interaction Im having is caused by the MAO interactions everyone's talking about or if its just a strange reaction, but I believe it warrants personal investigation.

I have had a a couple of glasses of beer or wine with NO adverse affects (I've been taking SJW for 4 months now),but if you have a problem mixing alcohol and SJW, why bother drinking if you have good quality "weed"? I understand that having drinks with friends is more socially acceptable, etc., but frankly, if you're experiencing good results from SJW, in your case, cutting down on booze (six beers?) is a small sacrifice. Try sticking with weed...It's produces a far more interesting high than alcohol does, and you won't have a hangover from it either...The munchies maybe, but NO HANGOVER.

I, too, have had similar effectrs of miximg SJW and akcohol. I find that even after one drink I feel very lethargic and 'fuzzy' the following day. Like I haven't slept at all the night before.
This has led me to pack up drinking all together while I'm on SJW. The sucess I've had with it, the way it has changed the way I feel and cope with life far outweighs the effect of a couple of drinks.
Bit of a bummer though!

hi there,
I want to agree on both points...this is a fantastic site, very informative and helpful. And I've had 2 nasty experience mixing alcolhol and sjw. I've been taking sjw for 6 weeks and notice a BIG difference...I was naive and did not expect to feel like I am on "medication" since it's herbal, but I do.
I had 2 glasses of wine 2 weeks ago with dinner...this is a very normal occurence in my family (it was weird that 2 weeks had passed with no wine). All of a sudden I was dizzy, slurring and essentially passed out within 20 minutes. It happened again last week after one joint and one glass of champagne. I can normally enjoy several of both with no problem. Again, I got very "sloppy" and silly at first, then dizzy and sick feeling. My boyfriend was quite alarmed and said I was rambling and mumbling and not making sense. I vaquely remembering thinking I was dreaming while I was awake. Obviously, the combination was way too much for me, but I guess I'm wondering why?? No one else seems to have a real problem with moderate alcohol consumption and sjw. Marijuana and sjw alone are fine for me, it is only when I introduce the slightest amount of alcohol that I've felt this negative effect. I read a warning about red wine and sjw this am but it doesn't say what can happen when the 2 are mixed.

I do notice the alcohol+SJW effect. My alcohol tolerance has gone down significantly since started SJW, which is actually pretty good, expense-wise. Personally, for the sake of feeling outgoing and confident for a night or two a week, i can stand the horrible hangovers (yes, i do realise i shouldnt rely on alcohol; i don't)
