[QUOTE="Blindsided, post: 757658, member: 23811"] JMom, I can only share what I know. MMJ has helped my son. He has struggled with Bi-Polar (diagnosis'd at 17, now 46), but is very pill phobic, including opioids, always has been. When he moved to California for a job (over 20 years ago), he got a medical card in hopes that nature's MMJ would help his swings and his anxiety. He is acutely aware of his behaviors and so remorseful when he lets the mania take control. That said, I found out later that he had smoked it in high school. Today, he is at the top of his field. He is sought out by others because of his expertise. I don't know if the same could be true for your son, because the situation is different, but your son's willingness to respect your boundaries is a very adult thing. In my son's case, he never did any other drugs that I know of. Right? He doesn't drink alcohol, he and his wife just celebrated their 20th wedding anniversary, and he is very successful. That makes me think he does benefit from it. My Difficult Child is my 41 y.o. pregnant daughter, who has never been interested in marijuana. She instead is an alcoholic, though she did stop all drinking the minute she found out she was pregnant, so I am hopeful; I walk on eggshells, still. So I understand your concern about marijuana. I am glad to hear your son is showing signs of progress. In healing [/QUOTE]
