Hope it's ok for me to post here. Think I made a similar post here quite a while ago. When recreational pot just became legal here in California.
I just. Need. To. Rant.......
I'm an Alanon, ACA and mother of a son who has smoked pot for at least 20 years. He is addicted to pot. And has no plans to give it up.
He lives in a state where recreational pot isn't legal. Pot has ruled and ruined his life.......
I live in a state where medicinal and recreational pot is legal.
Pot and CBD products are now sold locally and even home delivered.
(Age restrictions apply, but you and I know how that goes.)
At the gym I hear 30, 40, 50, 60 year olds talking about their pot and CBD "contacts". Raving about how goooood they feel.
I have older friends who have pot parties. They feel so fine and relaxed (aka stoned) and don't understand why I don't join in.
I'm sorry. I just can't embrace a community of potential and already addicted pot heads.
IMO this proliferation of pot and its derivatives has the potential to
Break - The Almost Broken State of California - and potentially, The USA.
I know, I can't do anything about it.
Sure having a tough time accepting it.
By the way,
At my Alanon meeting today, my friend, whose husband and daughter are alcoholics mentioned that she recently found out that her grandson is smoking pot. Her pain and confusion and fear was palpable.............
Life, as we all know, can be, and often is DIFFICULT!!!!
p.s. Pot and CBD users.........Buyer/User Beware !!!!!!!!
