The ones I see have never tried to object to pot use and have from time to time suggested I consider using it (I rarely smoke - only a few times a year). The first one suggested I get xanax from a friend (I would never take xanax and told her so - she seems to believe xanax is flowing freely on the streets to one and all) and to have a shot of liquor (I rarely drink) before coming to appointments.

They are not all anti-substance nazis.

For me, it is not bad advice to try a joint from time to time and I would run far away from any therapist who advised or was otherwise against it (I don't care one way or the other if they advise doing it). I would never, ever, take prescription drugs for stress or anxiety.
