hot take: it is often better to take psychiatric drugs than to self-medicate with weed
I lost ~7 years of my life to weed addiction (which I didn't recognize until the very end) and I really wish I had just gotten on SSRIs instead
at least then I'd have done more with my life
"it's just a plant, at least I'm not taking synthetic pills from Big Pharma" I say as I take several big hits just to be able to go to the 7-Eleven on the corner
"it just makes me giggly and hungry, that's all" I mumble as the hours, days, and weeks all melt into one big puddle
