Oh, I am so glad you're not letting yourself be re-directed by such abusive comments. I apologize for getting the gender wrong. I actually thought I had corrected that, but missed it somehow. I went home from work thinking about you and just hoping you would see through the bizzareness. Eventually I started to laugh about the whole thing, because no matter what (and apparently no matter where) I have found that when I try to make positive change, some type of thing happens--you know, like right in your face kind of negative thing--that translates into not going forward. Bottom line, I think I must be on the right track! I'm new to this site, too, but already I have received so much useful information to help me see my situation in a different light. I feel empowered and confident to continue looking for informed solutions that meet our family's needs.

Just know that despite being a stranger, I am rooting for your success.

I'm sorry that I'm an honest person and the rest of you don't like it. And I'm sorry for assuming you were female, acousticrat.

I'm just pointing out, people who lie, cheat, steal, and put others in danger, do not belong in society. Don't you think you would have gone to jail if you had been caught for any of that, or did you already? Hmm let's see...Charles Manson lied, cheated, stole, and put others in danger, but he also smoked pot, so I guess it's ok, it was the pot's fault, not his. SIKE. I'm not saying you are anything like Manson, I'm just making a point. You need to be responsible for your own actions and quit trying to put the blame on something else. You manifest your own destiny. It's like that old saying: Guns don't kill people. People kill people. It works here as well. Pot didn't make you do those things, you made you do those things. But it's really easy to just shirk the responsibility of your own actions, isn't it? 'It wasn't me, it was the weed'. Don't make me laugh. I'm not saying you shouldn't quit or trying to give you shit about wanting to quit, I just think it's unfair of you to blame your own actions on an inanimate object.

I'm a new member, but seeing your pot leaf signature seems very inappropriate for this type of site. I can't speak for everyone else on this site, but from what I've read, most of us are in despair and we're dealing with marijuana addicts or people are trying to quit themselves and finding it's extremely difficult.

This is a Support Group, not a PRO Marijuana site. The site descriptions states "A community of patients, family members and friends dedicated to dealing with Marijuana Addiction, together."

I was also thinking about some of your comments about how wonderful pot is because it comes from the earth. So does tobacco. I'm not saying pot causes cancer....but we all know tobacco is not good.

People smoke tobacco with tons of added chemicals to it. But not with pot.

OK

I know this really has nothing to do with me. But, seriously, I think you should go to a different site LizzieBathory and leave this one. I understand that marijuana has some good, healing properties but this is ridiculous. As stated by Sotma3 that this is a SUPPORT website for people dealing with difficult issues directly involved with marijuana. You sound like how I did when I was 17, just discovering it for myself and just thought it was the most amazing thing in the world.

To me, you sound like you're in deeper than you know and living way too far on the denial side of things. I feel sorry for you because to me, it seems like you've built up a wall so thick that even you yourself cannot break it down to see yourself and what you're saying to people for what everything really is. Either that you have a derranged view of things in general.

I'm sure that you're not perfect so bashing people for their mistakes in life will not get you anywhere.

People who can manage smoking weed usually do not feel the need to defend it and its users/abusers at all. Especially on a support website.

People are going through really difficult times trying to quit or living with addicts.. This is to help them cope and to get better, not to challenge them further.

So please, find somewhere else to spread your pot mania and leave us be.

oh, and in case you didn't already know.. marijuana is also treated by humans. It's rare nowadays to just pick if from nature and get high. It's done but alot of times, it's cured and very treated by people.

I apologize for the tone of that last post but if people want to justify smoking pot, they'll do it themselves.

I don't think smoking pot is a bad thing. That depends on many other factors. I'm glad that you have found something for your bipolar disorder and I know it does have amazing medicinal properties as well as other things.

Just try not to challenge those of us who are struggling. k? Smile

Refer to this quote in my previous post: "I'm not saying you shouldn't quit or trying to give you shit about wanting to quit, I just think it's unfair of you to blame your own actions on an inanimate object."

hi lizziebathory, wow you really sound like a very negative person, this is a support group not a group where people can come on here and put other people down.....our journey's to giving up pot or for some people on here living with people who smoke it is a very hard one.....i have just been reading some of your post and the way i'm reading them they are very negative to me.....you call people names like losers......we have been through hard times trying to give up our addiction and you just come on here and say that we are losers & just because some have stolen to support there addiction doesn't mean that they are losers and need to be in jail, before there addiction they probably would never have stolen a dam thing.... i think we are winners & strong because we can admit to ourselves that we have a problem with pot and want to fix it.....to be honest you don't sound like a person i want to waste my good words on, as i read your posts they start to make me feel angry & i can't believe that you can come on here and just blast all that stuff at people.....wow i'm gobsmacked.....maybe you should not be on this support group because your not very supportive at all.....

wow how wrong you are lizziebathory to say that pot is not grown with chemicals.......alot of it these days is grown with chemical enhancers, majority of pot is not grown naturally these days......wow everyone i don't think it matters what anyone says on here lizziebathory apparently has an answer for everything, wow this person seems to think they know it all......please try and ignore the negavtive views and keep keeping strong in your journey of trying to quit pot smoking to regain a better life for yourself.....W00t Cheerful Smile Silly W00t
