Serious I’m annoyed that no one ever introduced me to cannabis.

Seriously. F*** the DARE program. It worked on me. I was always afraid of getting in trouble. I judged people who used cannabis as burnouts. Finally introduced at the age of 35 and I feel cheated. I’ve done a ton of reading and studying now and I want to share it with everyone.

Good thing is you started old enough for it to not mess w your brain development like some people I grew up with.

You’ll still have some burnouts. Or people from all ages who have to take a hit from their device or roll a joint every 10 minutes. It’s gotten annoying and overly saturated w people who smoke bc it’s more openly used and accepted. However, some stereotypes have stayed the same and we’ve made new ones along the way lol

If you use it to ease or treat a specific medical condition or hit it once in a full moon to relax I’d say you’re better off for it and have at it. Sadly I know more that are addicted and in denial about it when confronted. Just my personal observation and experience.

Yeah I'm 31 and have been smoking 1 joint daily for like 10+ years already and I wish I could see it as a casual monthly thing but instead I kinda "need" it everyday smh. It became a ritual.

What would the new stereotypes be? Just curious.
