"My problems started with alcohol. I moved on to cannabis, then cocaine, and eventually heroin. It's a typical progression for an addict."

So, what happened here? Legal pot laws hopped into the magical time machine, went back to when she was 14 and put a joint in her already drunken mouth?

Take some farking responsibility for your life. If you are an addict, that's on you. You farked up. Your parents farked up. Instead of living your life you sought out escapes from it.

Pot didn't ruin your life. Neither did heroin or cocaine or alcohol. YOU RUINED YOUR LIFE.
This is the first lesson people like this have to learn if they ever want to actually go straight.

I agree with what you said, but I would like to draw attention to the disconnect that allows people to attribute cannabis with being a gateway while ignoring alcohol, nicotine, caffeine and prescription meds as gateways.

Point 1: She was a lot cuter back when she was a stoner. Now she looks like a dude.

Point 2:
the recovering addict, now 22, says: "For people with addictive personalities or who need to fill a void, legalising cannabis could be so dangerous.

"My problems started with alcohol...

Two things:

1. The Sun link + "cute blonde/brunette/redhead" headline = DO NOT CLICK

2. I call BS on this tale. This is the exact opposite of what cannabis does.

Yep. every single person I've ever met with a serious drug problem started with alcohol.

This evening, I started with alcohol and moved on to cannabis and cocaine.

I have managed to do so without destroying my life.

cyberworm		2013-01-06 12:02:09 AM

Interesting they glossed over that she was smoking weed at 14, was an A student at 18 (4 years later, smoking weed), and then in college had problems.

Oh, her dad died when she was 14? Hmm....

Let's not blame marijuana for someone's lack of coping skills.

reklamfox		2013-01-06 12:02:19 AM

NEWS FLASH you were always a theiving heroin addict with OCD who was prone to panic attacks. You also happen to be a pot smoker. Pot did not cause you to do all those horrible things. You did it to yourself.

/a smoker who is neither an OCD heroin addict or an anxious thief

Exactly!

If she was sincere she would be campaigning for the banning of alcohol as well, since it was obviously her real "gateway drug."

Incontinent_dog_and_monkey_rodeo		2013-01-06 12:03:14 AM

It's more of an argument FOR legalization, so potheads can stop having to hang out with junkies to buy weed.

It would be a lot easier to judge how healthy she is now if she would pop that top and let those puppies out for some air.

So much THIS!

Earlier tonight I was overhearing a friend of mine laying some truth down to a kid, trying to get him to come to terms with his heroin addiction.

It's people like you what cause unrest.

olddinosaur		2013-01-06 12:06:44 AM

Hogwash, with 10% truth stirred in.

If you are a compulsive self--destructive personality, you will find a way to achieve your goal, whether that means is pot, drugs, booze, potato chips or anything else. Take away all that and you can waste your life sitting in your momma's garage playing video games until you are 40.

I stayed stoned to the gills throughout the 60s, and nobody held a gun to my head. I drank an ocean of alcohol throughout the 70s and never got hooked on it. But I stayed hooked on nicotine from 1963 to about 1995, and that was the hardest habit of all to break.

No chemical is stronger than I am, and no man on earth can tell me what to do. I am the master of my fate, I am the captain of my soul.

Suck it, trolls.

This. There would be no "falling in with the wrong crowd" if the wrong crowd weren't 100% in control of distribution of marijuana.

Gotta love the whole "weed ruined my life" -- because weed definitely forced her to agree to spend £200/gram on cocaine and heroin.

Choose Life. Choose a job. Choose a career. Choose a family. Choose a farking big television, choose washing machines, cars, compact disc players and electrical tin openers. Choose good health, low cholesterol, and dental insurance. Choose fixed interest mortgage repayments. Choose a starter home. Choose your friends. Choose leisurewear and matching luggage. Choose a three-piece suit on hire purchase in a range of farking fabrics. Choose DIY and wondering who the fark you are on Sunday morning. Choose sitting on that couch watching mind-numbing, spirit-crushing game shows, stuffing farking junk food into your mouth. Choose rotting away at the end of it all, pissing your last in a miserable home, nothing more than an embarrassment to the selfish, farked up brats you spawned to replace yourselves. Choose your future.

Choose life... But why would I want to do a thing like that? I chose not to choose life. I chose somethin' else. And the reasons? There are no reasons. Who needs reasons when you've got grass?

Probably a high-maintenance AW from an early age. Got a Makiby Barbie instead of the Ballerina Barbie, had a hissy fit, and said ,"I'll show them!" Next week: smoking and drinking.

All else follows.

I plan on becoming the world's biggest Taurine Tycoon. I found a source in China for pennies a kilo...after I base that shiat up, I push the powder in subways across America for $20/gr.

most substance abusers start with nicotine or alcohol. The problem isn't really the substance, but the person who has the addiction. They could have been abusing "legal" prescription meds too and it's no different than going with the illegal substances.

I bet she liked sugar so much as a kid that she became "addicted". This cycle started way earlier.
