Weed, pot, ganja! Yes ladies and gentlemen we are talking about the stickiest-of-the-icky. Ahem! According to a new Dutch study done on Aussie teens, there’s a mutual relation between the use of marijuana and psychotic symptoms in teens. Conversely, they found a possible link to psychosis in adolescents and the use of weed later in life. Well duuuuh! Truly groundbreaking info. Truly! G’ Day Mate!

I’ve been a pot smoker since the age of 13 an now I’m 50. I’ve been a very productive machine operator an a GREAT parent. I’m working on my 32nd year of marriage (The only marriage.) No, I don’t have a college education nor did I ever feel I needed one. I’ve always been ADD an school was hard on concentration. No, I’ve not wanted anything harder. Pot has always provided a vessel of focus for my mind. I paint, write, an work with Equine rescue. I LOVE THE LORD JESUS CHRIST an at no time did I ever feel out of control of my emotions or my situations of life. Due to drug testing at my place of employment I had to make a choice. Yes I made the choice to keep my job. I miss the calmness an the relaxation it gave me. No, after many years of smoking on a daily bases there was no withdraws physically, just anger for losing my freedom to smoke. Now let’s discuss Psychosis. I’m one of four children who has not suffered some form of mental illness.My oldest brother suffered two mental breakdowns. Thanks to a drug called Hallidol. My brother got on a motorcycle an killed himself. He had a false sense of being. My sister an younger brother also has been diagnosed with bi-polar disorders. My little brother now uses marijuana an hasn’t been bothered with this condition. Sleep is a problem for him and most mental disorders. Pot provides a natural way to feel calm an provide sleep. I thank God for my health an well being, but if I ever feel that Marijuana can out do a pharmaceutical drug I WILL SMOKE!!!!
