Exactly where I am on this. 100% I don't know why they think they are 'different' because they are not. They are avoiding life on some level.. and if that level affects how they live then they are no different.

Been there first hand. The #1 relationship my XABF had was with POT. He told me all about it after I made "discovery" and the excitement in his eyes and voice was really creepy.. the sort of excitment you hear in the voice of someone who has just won a big prize. His big prize? A life of failure!

...and no different than any other drug. I think pot is, as you have suggested, more insidious!
