Are you a doctor or a nurse? I’m not being sarcastic, just curious.

I know someone who smoked that synthetic ‘weed’ they used to sell at convenience stores. He was messing around with a mutual friend’s loaded gun and shot a hole into the wall, taking the TV out with it. I wasn’t there, thankfully.

I’m a critical care RN of 28 years and still practicing in the great state of Virginia. I have a burning hatred of the ruin of what the drug culture has done to countless lives! Yeah...smarter more careful folks sometimes get around the laws of averages and never let the drugs control them...but there are many more who have been caught up in drug addiction,(pot was usually the first drug...though some could argue tobacco) who have ultimately wasted their lives and have died young! Alcohol seems to get a free pass but it I think alcohol is much more destructive to far more folks than even pot is. “Wine is a mocker, and strong drink a brawler” according to Proverbs and I’ve spent many a 12 hour shift trying to detox alcoholic and drug abusers safely as they went thru DT’s, “the shakes”, da joneses” or what ever else you want to call it.

When you’ve faced down an naked angry psychotic patient bloodied from the urinary catheter he’s managed to pull out of himself while waving his private parts (spurting blood) around yelling....”yeah come and get some”...then one starts to come to certain hardened conclusions as to what the drug and alcohol culture is really all about!
