Marijuana & Autism + ADHD

Hey all,

So I've just been diagnosed with Autism and ADHD however my ADHD meds are being held up until I can get in with a social worker so they can see I'm not at risk for becoming addicted. Very frustrating. I had previously quit smoking marijuana to figure out what's going on with my brain and to find natural solutions, but with social limitations & masking becoming increasingly frustrating for me because I realize now when I'm doing it (nearly all the time). Does anyone else feel as though marijuana helps to slow your thoughts down and feel a bit normal and at ease? I've struggled to find anything else that brings me this sort of relief, although because it brings me such relief I end up wanting to be high all the time. It's confusing to me and if anyone has alternative solutions I should try please share!
