i love pot i do think it should be legalized i dont think its a gate way drug because when anyone says it is their using it and somthing else its just not pot ... if that makes sense!!! but i also belive that some people just cant handle the responsiability of pot just like some people cant handle them selves with alchole and thats when pot gets a bad name

It makes me feel relaxed and mellow. Often at first after smoking more than usual or of a better quality, I feel that my brain cannot cognate thoughts very quickly, that my processes are slowed down.I get paranoid if I am not at home or I think that someone around me may disapprove. After I get a grip on it I start to think more clearly and sometimes more profoundly. I carry on conversation and enjoy the feeling.

I don't think that I like it as much when I am made to feel uncomfortable by others. If I smoke too much and feel that I cannot perform the tasks at hand well or like so much of the time I am hiding the fact that I am stoned from non smokers. I feel judged by those who know I am stoned but are not smoking.

My day used to be not as fun if I didn't smoke. It was such a part of my routine that not having it would make me dwell on that fact and only make me want it more.

I think weed is mentally addictive much the same way as any habitual action. If one is used to doing something or feels they need to do something then they do it. The feeling one gets from cofee in the morning or walking for exercise is allot like it. If you stopped drinking coffee you might get a headache for awhile but that would go away. With any substance we use even if it is physically addictive it is the mental addiction that prompts us to use it. We wouldn't wait for the physical pain or whatever side affect one would get from not using that would prompt us.

I think that people who are predispositioned to use drugs either by genetics or from emotional trama will find something to use. Weed is easier to find and more common so it is abused more second to alcohol. I have done many different drugs in my life but I never felt that weed was a gateway.

If it were legal then our prisons would be les full of people who really don't belong there. There would be les organized crime and the government could regulate and tax it. It probaly would loose some of it's Golden Apple value and be much less an issue but who knows. When this county started there were no illegal drugs. You could purchase morphine and suringes from the sears catalog.There will always be those people who think that drugs are evil and they may be why would anyone beleive me when I say they are not? I'm an addict LOL. I am a dry addict for the now.
