I do not have a moment to myself throughout the day, and I find that I fall asleep easier after taking a few hits because I can unwind quicker. I sort out my thoughts, plan for the next day, straighten up, and fall asleep.

My marriage -- It sucks LOL

I don't want to go into all the details about my kid's special needs, my marriage, my messy husband.... I find that weed helps me cope with these situations in my life, that's all.

I am sure most people who use marijuana find that it makes certain things easier to deal with.

Bottom line, and the main reason I use it, is because I enjoy it.

Well, instead of trying to cope, why not try to face your problems? Your husband doesnt like it yet you persist. Pot is more important than that? Problem. You use it to cope with stress? Problem. "My way or the highway" attitude about substances is a good way to ruin a marriage.

Sounds like pot hurts your life despite your temporary enjoyment? Why, tell me, is this any different from any other substance abuser?

And I'm a pro-pot choice mom of a disabled child but holy heck, you are trying to avoid life.
