Do you live in Weed CA....lol

I was a pot head from age 14 until 32. When I started in Michigan at that time we could still get really good Columbian Gold. Stuff would make you hallucinate. Then the DEA really cracked down on Florida and that dried up. Then it was Mexican dirt and once in some good green from CA. Then when I was 21 I moved to CA and it was very good hybrid all the time. My boss grew it. Way before it was medical legal. I suppose you live in Humbolt. That's where his seeds came from.

I was definitely addicted. I find it fairly harmless but my chronic use was not good for me. It is very hard on the lungs. Kills motivation in the long run, hard on short term memory if its good stuff.

I have been clean and sober for twenty years. but about 5 years ago I decided to try it for depression. Didn't work. Then a few years later to try it for anxiety and found it had to be the exact right strain. One buddy would have some that just made me totally tired and I didn't want that. Some would make me paranoid and that is not good for anxiety. There is one that is just right but I don't really want to get a card and find the right one. I have anxiety meds that work. I think it has legitimate medical uses. Maybe CBD more than TCH I dunno. Like you said you can stub your toe and get a prescription. Next election it will be legal all the way around in CA.

I think chronic use is not good but if your have cancer, or chronic pain, or anxiety, or something and it helps you who am I to judge. I don't think occasional use is harmful. If you are just using to get high for fun I would say only do it every couple of weeks or no more than once a week. If you have to get high to go out to lunch and everything else you do everyday then it is a problem.
