It troubles me a great deal that marijuana is illegal. I have tried to rationalize to myself that marijuana is wrong, but I cannot...however *smart* I think I am. The last time I used MJ was a couple of years ago. There was a six month period when I used it regularly, during which time I did not drink alcohol, and it was effective at halting anxiety & reducing ADHD symptoms (or so I believed). It calmed me down. I probably drink too much alcohol nowadays, and it's probably why I'm overweight. I only blame myself of course. I exercise a lot so I'm sore & my back hurts...and I'm not losing weight. No matter how busy I am marijuana somehow creeps into my mind...but again, I'm not using it. Too bad there isn't a treatment for cannabis addiction like there is for heroine & narcotic pain relievers. I think I'm self-medicating w/ alcohol & overly vigorous exercise. Who knows...bottom line is I can't stop thinking about the calm that marijuana brings.
