re: Cannabis and breastfeeding

Well, it's less about personal pleasure and more about the relationship between myself and my husband which suffers in some respects because of my complete non-desire to have sex because my medication completely negates my sex drive, but I can understand people seeing it as being more selfish than as a traditional medicinal use. I personally DO see it as a medicinal use.

i'm sorry if i offended you. it was not my intent. maybe i said it the wrong way. in any respect, i did not mean for it to sound as though as i was calling you selfish. i was saying i would sacrifice my personal pleasure. maybe it looks the same. i am sorry though. i do understand the effects of medication making things difficult. i used to be on anti-depressants. so believe me, i definitely understand. i do view the use of marijuana as medicinal in many circumstances and the way you describe your situation, i agree with you as it being a medicinal use. i would most likely make the same decision, however, if they offered a different drug or prescription, no matter what, based on side-effects. for example, i've been doing research on vaccines and there are many out there that i am choosing to wait on administering, even though the pediatrician i will be using does NOT recommend the practice. and many people disagree with me for doing this, but i am aware and responsible in regards to my decision. just like i believe you are. so, again, i was in no way pointing fingers at you or making negative connotations in regards to selfishness. if that makes sense.

i dont beleive in smoking pot around children or at all really.

HOWEVER, that doesnt mean I hate ppl that do it. I have had tons of friends that did it. I didnt "disown" them or anything. I just kinda did something else when they lit up, if I was around.

I did it as a teenager, and i guess it was laced, atleast that is what they told me afterwards. I remember it sucking. I used it because I didnt care about anything and i said
"what the hell" and tryed it. Well needless to say it made me feel worst, and trees tried to attack me...and so forth. After that I started shivering.

My mom has always done it, and I didnt like how she acted on it either.

I just never liked it, and I dont want my son to do it. Even though he most likely will some day. Until then, Im not going to encourage. But I didnt write this to piss anyone off, just to explain how I feel.

Now I am off to take that political compass thingy =]

I was not offended, but thank you none-the-less for the apology.

My sister had a similar experience where someone laced the joint they were smoking with cocaine.

Unfortunately, some people are jackasses who don't think about how their actions will affect others.

I encourage everyone to give their opinions, either pro or con, so long as they can do so maturely as has been the case with all the posts thus far.

This has been the most informative and interesting thread I've ever come across here. To the op- your views are very refreshing.

Thanks!

I definitely think that there is nothing wrong with smoking but everything in moderation. As long as you can take care of your kids or you do it while they're off at grandma's then I believe there isn't anything wrong with it. But everyone has their own opinions.

Quoting God:“ Just an FYI. I talked to a doctor today and mentioned that the Effexor that I take has dramatically ... [snip!] ... who will automatically jump to labeling him a quack, the medical licensing board obviously doesn't, heh. Peace and pot. C.”

I LOVE YOU C.
