Re: Mental Illnesses.
Hey man, I was on anti-dep on and off over 10 yrs. When i was off i drank instead. Quit drinking 4 yrs. ago but been on anti-depressants steady since. Doc said i had the worst case of drug-resistant depression she ever dealt with, so i went from one to the other, higher and higher doses, zoloft, celexa, trazadone, risperdol, lithuim, to name a few. For almost 2 yrs. i was like a zombie, didn't hardly leave home except to shop, no friends, nothing. So about 8 mos. ago i tried weed again after long layoff,( the late 70's was when i smoked a lot.) Started smokin around Mar., quit all my medication, all i do now is smoke, and my whole life is now changing. I'm active again, I read a book on growin weed, stuck some seeds in a pot, got excited, bought a computer, got more excited, bought a digital camera, then found out about forums, got more excited, now planning my move to Calif., all this from a guy who used to spend 18 hrs. a day lyin in bed, readin or watchin TV. And all possible by quitting the doctors drugs and using mj for my anx., dep, also little PTSD. Sure still have probs. here and there but nothing close to before. Since i always loved gardening, mj now serves as my therapy, spending time growing and learning. I'm starting classes now also. The joy's of growing and pleasure of smoking has given me a total new outlook on life, this is from a guy who a year ago wanted nothing more than to go to sleep and never wake up again, but now i look forward to every day, cant wait to see the ladies startin to snow on them. Sorry man didn't mean to write a book but i'm just so happy to have my life back again and i owe it all to mj.
