    Capsaicin cream was a game changer for me during episodes before I fully quit. Applied to my abdomen it reduced nausea intensity within about 20 minutes. Stopping cannabis is the real solution but capsaicin helped in the acute phase.

    Cannabis was genuinely managing my PTSD before CHS forced me to quit. Losing it was painful. I have since found CBT-based therapy more effective long-term, but the transition was very rough and took time and real support.

    I grew my own for four years with completely clean inputs and still developed CHS. I wish it was pesticides because that would mean I could return to using clean product. But stopping cannabis resolved my symptoms regardless.

    As someone who lived through it I do not care about the politics. What I experienced was real and devastating. My symptoms disappeared when I stopped using and returned when I relapsed. The cause and effect was undeniable.

    I had this exact pattern for 8 months before a diagnosis. Multiple doctors said anxiety or gastritis. An ER physician who had seen CHS recognized it immediately. The hot shower compulsion is almost diagnostic on its own.

    I went through the same thing. Three ER visits before anyone mentioned CHS. The hard truth is the only real cure is stopping cannabis entirely. Within two weeks of quitting my symptoms disappeared completely.
