[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 745617, member: 4152"] No judgement. I personally can see pot as helpful medicinally especially for pain or perhaps glaucoma. But I did work with teens who got in trouble legally for drug usage (mostly pot) and their lack of motivation was disturbing. Best guess is it’s not like that for all teens, but I suspect many if not most. Perhaps also those with extreme anxiety get a sort of benefit if not used in excess. ??? Re no judgement also...we adopted a child that ended up suffering from mental illness. Lots of stigma. Lots of preconceived notions. “Perhaps mr and Mrs nomad didn’t raise her right?” Some people thought. Give me a break. On occasion I would meet someone who “got it,” like a neighbor who had a bipolar uncle and told me some “far out,” stories. Some things you just have to live it yourself or closely observe. Some things we Might not understand. I don't know. I do think perhaps we are each meant to try our best in life [/QUOTE]
