Since I have not read the orginal post, I can't speak to it's contents. However, I will speak to what's been stated here.

Discussing the past use of illegal meds/drugs is NOT a crime. Discussing it does not mean condoning it. This is a mental health forum and addcition/abuse is a REAL mental health issue that is recognized.

I encourage such discussions as I feel the support can help to SAVE LIVES. There is a huge difference between condoning illegal acts and discussing drug abuse. In my opinion, drug abuse is the one subject that is excepted from the guideline "no discussion of illegal acts", as to a member seeking support/instruction/guidance. A guideline is just that. It is not a set in stone rule. This guideline wasn't intended to be an "all covering, unbreakable rule". If that were the case, we couldn't discuss something apalling we read in the newspaper that was an illegal act, to use as an example. Does that make sense?

If there's ever a question regarding a guideline, don't hesitate to ask.

Thanks,
