Don't know if being off pot will help or make her worse. I'll see her in May.

Oh boy... The horrible cycle that self medicating is! I've been to hell and back in that area. Mostly with alcohol that I finally put down last May. Does your friend have a MI that she is coping with? Getting off of meth will cause mood swings and chemical imbalance for up to 2+ years. Depending on how long and how hard of a user she was. At least from what I've been told. If she just recently gave it up then she's in for a ride still. Since it drains dopamine I would suggest a AD like Wellbutrin. If your bothered by the pot then maybe confront her? Most of all, ask her if she's alright mentally. Let her know you do care and that you want her to get help. I gatta tell you that she may not be thrilled about your honesty though. Good luck hun!
