I would prefer it to be legalized. No specific economical reason, really, I would just prefer to have it without repercussions. I could go down to the doctor and say that I have anxiety about getting in trouble for marijuana, but I don't really want to go through all of that trouble.

Two different ends of the spectrum, lol.

I agree with you completely. There have been times when I wasn't able to get any ganja and it can be frustrating, but flipping **** about it means that she is too dependent on it. Anyway, if she's using it to self-medicate anxiety, that's just a bad idea to begin with. Weed can help you "forget" temporarily, but it definitely makes anxiety worse in the long-run.

As for smoking at parties, I always feel pretty cool when I'm part of that group that's getting high AT the party, but it gives me the spins if I've been drinking too much (the key is moderation). On the other hand, if I smoke and don't drink anything before a party, it usually makes the whole experience less than pleasant.

Unfortunately many habitual smokers lack the ability to plan ahead.
And I think it's pretty common for all habitual users to get cranky when their supply is gone, not necessarily only those who are self-medicating.

Give her a decade or so before you judge her too harshly - she'll either have quit or learned how to estimate when she needs to get more before she runs out.

Growers out here in CA are against it because they're making so much money on it. Other than them, only complete morons voted against.

A couple more years and it will be fully legalized in CA, which the benefits of will be displayed and then more states should follow.

I think an important step toward legalization will be the assurance to the underground market that they will not lose money from its legalization but may instead become official business owners and expand their product to a wider, legal market.

It sounds crazy, but even the most violent cartels could eventually go straight if their crimes were pardoned and their businesses legitimized.

Yes dude.

You think i ever let myself run out of weed? I always have 2 sacks, each different strain, one being the back up.

It's just too stressful when your almost out. I spend the whole high thinking "ohh man im out what am i gonna do" or start drinking whatever has alcohol in it.

Very dependent on it.

I always run out of weed, but I don't moan or cry about it because it's my own fault I'm out and should learn not to be so greedy. I suck it up and wait til weed day :).

Like Matious, i always have on hand. Its not because i constantly have to be holding, I just end up with several strains from experimenting and keep the stuff on hand i tend not to like as much. Being able to buy at a moments notice by googling my area on weedmaps is a pretty sweet deal.

I remember the days when i had to wait on someone to get back into town, or finish with their daughters baptism or some **** that would drive me crazy. Its so convenient and nice to be able to head to the stores which are generally open from 10-11pm everyday. YAY.

This too. I had a strain that was making me very tired and unmotivated. It didn't work for my daily life so i had to buy some other ****. Fortunately this new stuff gives me very clear thoughts and energy.

I used to know of this website that had a chart and it explained the effects of each particular strain, i wish i still knew about it. If i could, i would only smoke the positive, medical grade stuff, but it doesn't come by very often so i settle for the weed that makes me more reclusive which sucks. Try to combat it by drinking coffee but then i just seem even weirder at work, all high and jittery.
