Exactly!! As a firm believer in the positive medicinal and health affirming nature of cannabis, I agree with this sentiment 100. It’s a potent medicine that deserves respect, IMO. Respect to me = use w reverence and balance. I am also a long time user, started at 13 also (anyone else‘s first time involve gravity bong hits in mom and dads claw foot tub😂?)
I believe ganja has been, without a doubt, a positive influence in my life. I can also acknowledge that sometimes I lose sight of maintaining a healthy relationship w her. Like any potent medicine, there exists a fine line b/w healing consumption and detrimental over-use. She is here to teach us things. Sometimes we have to falter or fuck up in order to raise our understanding and awareness. We won’t all have the exact same dynamic or dosage for a balanced and healthy relationship. But, it’s on each of us to explore and determine for ourselves, “what does a healthy relationship w this plant medicine look like, for me?” It’s nice to have a place to talk about these things w kindred spirits. Thanks again grouchy and also a big thanks to team OG and all the diverse users that make this place so great.
