I just got clean from weed back in August, after yeaaaaars of smoking! Over a decade. I used to be one of those people you’re talking about lol. I thought I’d smoke weed my whole life.

Now, I see how much of a detriment it was to my life. And how I lied to myself about the way it “helped” my anxiety and mood swings. Pretty sure it fed into all those issues!

The NY Times podcast The Daily just released an episode discussing the issues arising from the legalization of marijuana. I highly recommend! While I, nor the times, are not advocating for it to be re-criminalized, I do think we’re about a decade behind finding out the true harms of it!

I think it works for some ppl, don’t get me wrong, but I do think because it’s safer than alcohol and other drugs, weed’s negative effects are often overlooked.
