I used to smoke back in the 80s in Hawaii. When I quit, then went to the eye dr, he asked if I had changed anything. I asked why? He said the pressure went up in my eyes like 15 points. When I told him I stopped smoking pot, he said you might want to start again.

I have two cousins (brothers, 38 and 40-something years-old) who are schizophrenic, both living at home with their mother, both big time potheads. Marijuana is what they use to self-medicate, not the cause of their mental illness. (I point at their mother as the cause. )

I worked with a guy that got cancer at 25, that smoked while going through chemo. Never missed a day of work, wasn't sick, and other than losing his hair, you'd never know he went through chemo.

Another woman was dealing with cancer at the same time, didn't smoke, and missed all kinds of work. It even seems to help prevent and/or treat some forms of cancer.

Why they don't legalize it, is beyond me.

i notice my sisters inlaws and my brother inlaw only got more nuts when they smoke pot, heay they grow it themselfs too, i only smoked pot twice in my life ( i had to try it ones in my life!) and that was with the age of 21 when i was living on my own, and still i was scared to dead that my parents would found out...because they would kill me, adult or not. my sister inlaws use pot when she has to clean alot, my brother inlaw well, he use pot and sniff or whatever he can to get high, i dont use pot, i think it isnt special and thats the message i give my kids too...pot isnt needed to relax or whatever..for real i am scared to dead my kids will use it, specially because its legal here.
