Join in or butt out, your choice, just don't try to be superior.

I know we are discussing cannabis and not fair to compare with alcohol, but lots of people are extremely belligerent after drinking (no names mentioned like.. :) I am,of course, still my sweel lil 'ol self when tanked). I understand it makes you fairly mellow and non aggresive.

It depends how strong it is, before SKUNNK - cannabis was about 2 - 5 % THC content now it's about 15 - 20 % content. THC one of the main chemicals that causes the effect the other one is CBD!

Smoking Cannabis about 5% THC will make you feel mellow, relaxed, music/ TV and Film is more enjoyable, if people around are negative it may make you feel a bit paranoid! Can make you laugh a lot etc

So what are you trying to say?

Could it be that if allowed to continue with the drugs this illness would have been suppressed?
Or that like you soaps are not real?
Or that this lad was suffering withdrawel from a none addictive substance.

I do wish you could make yourself clear.
