How Did You Handle Peer Pressure Growing Up?

@beermeplease so did you bow to it?

@Primnproper in my earlier teens yes. i started smoking cigarettes and weed because of it. i didn't really like weed back then. made me feel too paranoid, i quit smoking weed late in my teens and didn't really start again until my late 30s early 40s

@beermeplease it will still make you paranoid. lol
See that’s my prim side shining through! Shut up Prim!

@Primnproper i don't get paranoid any more...it relaxes me.

@beermeplease 👍 good for you.

@Primnproper Paranoia was always linked to its illegality, once states and countries relaxed the laws and legalized, it went away.

@NativePortlander1970 oh no my niece that did it alot in her youth and its affected her terribly..

@Primnproper did she have mental health issues to begin with? cannabis by itself doesn't cause those kinds of issues that i know of.

@beermeplease @Primnproper Sadly, if someone has already underlying issues, some Cannabis strains can exacerbate them, those with a major dominate sativa is usually to blame.

@NativePortlander1970 that's what i heard.

@beermeplease No, she didn't at all. After all the scans and the delcing into her past, that's what the specialists told her, and she herself noticed the change once she started.
