Il know that bramble are eatable and I can recognised them perfectly but I couldn't bring myself to eat it. It feels to weird. I should'nt have forrage it.
I've made a flower-leave salad and mugwort fritters out of the rest.

Isn't mugwort bitter? And mildly hypnotic, which as long as you know, is fine?

I didn't taste much bitterness which may be du to cooking it. I never heard it was hypnotic and didn't feel any effect. I eat about a handful of it tonight and the same amount yesterday. It was the first time I eat it. Is this an effect of commun mugwort or chinese mugwort?

Common, I guess. I used to make a week tea of it to alleviate uterine cramping when OTC pain relievers didn't help anything, without it. https://theherbalacademy.com/blog/how-to-use-mugwort/

Oh ! Yes. Mugwort is famous to be the woman plant at least in french. Did you meant paint relieving by hyponic. I might not have understood the word correctly.

Nope, if you make the tea stronger, it makes you sleepy, or* it did me. But that may be because I also took it with food and ibuprofen.

I also consider common mugwort to be a bit hypnotic. It's worked with to produce vivid dreams, better dream recall, and lucid dreaming as well.
