[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Cannabis is legal - its hilarious seeing you all cry about it :P[/quote]

I personally know a wonderful 19 year old whose life and family have been entirely, heartbreakingly derailed by thc induced psychosis-i assure you, it’s not hilarious. [/quote]
THIS. My 20 yr DS has been hospitalized twice for cannabis induced psychosis. He struggles with anxiety and thought it would make him feel better. The first time was smoking, the second an 1/4 of gummi. And before you blame it on us parents, we have been very involved and provide support. Kids are going to do stupid things. We all did growing up. [b]The difference is the pot is 1000x stronger than when we were kids.[/b]

Like most laws meant to address social problems, this has just created more. I hate it.[/quote]

They said this when I was a kid in the 1980s, too. What were people smoking before the 1980s? Ditchweed?

Not to minimize your son's experiences. People definitely self-medicate, and in my anecdotal experience, the self-medication often causes its own problems.

I would hope that, with cannabis being legal and regulated, there would at least be more certainty about what you're getting, when you get it.[/quote]
