This story is true - and I'm reaching the end of my rope (anxiety, breath)

I am the epitome of "stoned" when I do it.. not even the munchies like everyone brags about!! Stuff is funnier though!!!

There are two types of cannabis, well three technically but the two major ones are Indica and Sativa.

Indica strains will make you feel very stoned and lethargic, couch locked just don't feel like doing anything except eat type of effect.

Sativa will make you alert, but stoned at the same time, you'll feel like walking around the park on a Sativa type strain.

A hybrid of both Indica and Sativa will just overwhelm pretty much, making you couch locked and lethargic and very very stoned.

Rudarallis is the third type, never tried any strains derived from it though.

I have the videotape, the pics, etc. The harassment level has just escalated to a point where I have spent the last 3 out of 4 nights in a motel. I have 24 hours worth of video of my neighbor just staring at my house from my other neighbor's yard.

I've taken pics each morning the last four days with my digital from a step stool in my bedroom. I've captured four men dressed in either masks or make-up in my next door neighbor's yard. She's elderly and says the trespassing "problem" has been going on for two or three years. She won't report them as she fears them.

So I have quite the conundrum. I am to meet with a private investigator tomorrow but his fees are more than I can afford. I could rent an apartment for what he charges for 1.5 night's surveillance. I own the house and always felt safe during the day - until today when I saw the guy with the mohawk in my backyard. This is not the first time I've seen him in a pic.

What would you do? I've sent the pics of the masked trespassers to the police as a follow up to a request for one that I took. Also, a guy stopped by my house to ask if I wanted to buy firewood. Guess what...I live in Phoenix in an all electric subdivision and he did not stop at anyone else's house on the block. He resembled one of the guys in the photo I gave to the police. Additionally, when I told the police about this they said they had never heard of such a thing before - someone selling firewood up my way.

My nerves are shot and it seems like no one will help. Or shall I say that help comes from those we least expect it. I found this to be true when my dad died and now it's happening again - the ones I thought I could count on have bailed, while others less close have stepped up to the plate. Still, my nerves have had it and I fear each night as I never know what is going to happen.

As I recall--- you posted a similar thread before awhile back. Are these same people/issues that you have been having for quite some time now?

I was thinking an artist may have placed some sort of odd looking carved statues in their yard and that's what you're seeing. Close up photos could confirm.

There will never be a "close-up" or a "focused" picture. This has been long and ongoing and the OP clearly has one of two problems: #1 she enjoys the attention she gets from her posts or #2 she really does believe that this is happening. Either way, I really do feel sorry for her neighbors. Can you imagine?

Misty, since you're fortunate enough to live in a medical marijuana state, there is a community you would love to be involved with, people just like you... it's not just hipsters smoking it just to prove to other hipsters that they're cool because they smoke, but people very much like yourself that found that it enhances their lives and quality of life and wellbeing.

I live in Georgia so I wish I could have the type of community that they have on the west coast, and the dispensaries out there already have marijuana baked goods you can just eat, or even beverages infused with THC. I know Germany has a beer brewed from hemp called Cannabia, but it has a very low THC content compared to the stuff out west I bet.

Also be very cautious if you choose to eat foods with marijuana baked into it, it's very easy to eat more than you need and become very very very very stoned, it won't kill you if you eat too many pot brownies, it will just make you pass out. I recommend a vaporizer if you're concerned about smoking it, even smoking it has been found to be less dangerous than smoking tobacco.

Well, thanks for your thoughts. I've been here eight years and had zero problems with my neighbors. In fact, I keep to myself. I am quiet, keep up my yard, and mind my own business. Clearly the last point I mention isn't one of your strong suits.

You absolutely make me LOL! I am sorry to disappoint, but I won't be smoking any MJ anytime soon. I just have no desire. Even if it were legalized (and I don't think it is here but just shows you how much I pay attention) I wouldn't be buying it.

But I support you in your rights to enjoy it!

[esnox82]

Right, you were quiet and kept to yourself until you didn't like the way your neighbor was building out their property... Is that incorrect? This entire situation only began when the new neighbor decided to develop his lot the way he chose... and you didn't agree. Would you like me to cite the posts you made?

Oh brother, no one would have liked it. In fact my next door neighbor made the comment she can't believe the city let him do it and that all our values will probably go down. He built up our wall without my consent (per city ordinances) and that was what really caused the problem.

Now, if you are here to derail, move on to a different thread. Thanks.

You'd be surprised at who does smoke it, your neighbors probably already do lol. You only live one life, so there is no reason to be afraid, if it's been okay'd by local governments for medical use, then it's not as dangerous as you might believe it is, otherwise it'd still be illegal for any type of use.

The Netherlands legalized it, Italy decriminalized it, Switzerland legalized it, Portugal legalized it, Canada decriminalized it, California, Arizona, Michigan, New Mexico, and a couple other states I'm missing decriminalized it.

It's not that marijuana is less dangerous now then it was perceived to be in the past, it was never dangerous to begin with... and Cannabis is the first plant cultivated by man, we have a long history with marijuana, 12,000 years strong.
