I've got all kinds of faults and bad habits. But I don't go on public forums where kids are present and advocate doing something that can lead to mental illness and addiction...which is what you were doing.
I reread my original comment #12 and another response, #41 and I dont know where I came across as advocating the use of weed ?
Yes, Ive smoked it for a long time and though had other problems in my life my use of pot was the most docile.
I voted against legalizing in California and Do see it as a serious problem especially for the young. I started at 14 and went on to many far worse adventures but in the end found now even ice cream is bad for me.
Addiction comes in many forms. Each person is different. Overcoming weakness is all I really advocate when it comes to substance abuse or any unhealthy habit.
