There was a wrap-around ad covering my morning Sun-Times for Sunnyside dispensary wishing everyone a Happy 4/20.
I have been an all-day/everyday marijuana user more-or-less since I was 16 years old. What maybe began as a recreational party favor turned out to be a very useful aide for me. Not to get too much into it, but there are thousands (millions) of Americans who are prescribed various drugs; I am certain marijuana is the right fit for me, and subsequently got my medical card a few years ago.
I spent most of my life taking extreme steps to hide the fact I was a smoker. I lost friendships, jobs, trust/respect for authority, and placed myself in dangerous situations with dangerous people because I smoke pot.
I now feel like the tide has completely turned, and there’s no going back. The acceptance of marijuana use over the past few years has been a MAJOR benefit for me, and I want to thank all the non-users who have come around on the issue, (or- at the least- not actively fought to oppose these changes). What may have been a long time coming was worth it. Happy 4/20.

I rarely, maybe twice in the past year, smoke. But I got a THC topical cream for a chronically sore neck that helped immensely more than chiropractor & acupuncture did.
Legalizing is the right decision and hope that we get many more great discoveries like that.

I risked prison time for a long time with my home grow as a way to keep my wife off of opiates and instead a little smoke to help her sleep at night when her pain got bad. It was better than finding a plug, but with a big risk to be sure.
Now we swing by NuEra to resupply. It's a whole new world!
Special shoutout to WI for keeping it illegal. Illinois can really use the tax revenue!

Sitting in the parking lot at Rise Dispensaries as I type this.

I don't (can't) use, but big shoutout to those that help keep my taxes lower!

+1 keep it coming! WI's profited off our summer homes for too long time to get that money back!

It’s only 35%. :-\

I don’t smoke/use. Experimented a little in college and in early adulthood - but not much. That said, I don’t judge those who do. Whether for pleasure or for medicinal reasons I’m good with legalization of pretty much everything. Legalize, regulate, tax. Happy 4/20 to all! Oh, and happy 6th birthday to my granddaughter Elizabeth!

I love hearing stories like these!
Legalize all drugs.
Why is the government telling me what I can put in my body?

Jah bless!!!

I'm fine with legalizing a lot of them but at the same time something like PCP which we've seen have pretty disastrous implications for others not on it... ism fine focusing the extra efforts on busting that up.

PCP, heroin, meth, fentyenal bad.
Cocaine, MDMA sorta bad
Weed, shrooms, LSD legalize and study.
Microdosing with LSD and mushrooms is fascinating emerging science for PTSD, TBIs, bi-polar, and other mental health treatments.

100% agree.

Nice of you to say, but our life is easy. We have plenty of money so the doctors are the only pusher she has ever had. I think getting hooked and being poor is a life-changing/ending combo.

I have a former coworker, well into his late 40s and very conservative otherwise, who microdosed with MDMA (after an unsuccessful stint with mushrooms) to combat some horrible depression and it was fantastically successful and changed his life.
My experiences with the dispenseries in Chicago, specifically Sunnyside, has been so fantastic and really a template for how it can be done. Very interesting to compare and contrast that with my experiences at similar establishments in Seattle and Denver

I don't know enough about MDMA outside of Lazar Hayward's "journey" and that it's massive in Ireland.
Everything else I 100% agree

I get the impression molly is pretty big in the US club scene. I'm an old (40s) guy that likes EDM, and every time I go to a show I get offered molly. Maybe it's just the way I look.

It’s enormous in the club scene. I may or may not have some experience with it 8-) but I’ve never sampled from one of the friendly local pharmacists at a show cause that’s just reckless

Bought three packs of gummies on Sunday. They work better for my back issues. My dad can’t sleep because of restless leg and the meds he was taking almost killed him. I recommended CBD/THC gummies, and he’s sleeping sound now

I get it, I do.
But I think you should allow an individual to choose. Plus, it would destroy the drug trade/black markets. And it would significantly improve deaths from accidental overdose.

I think we should destigmatize drug use but I think legalizing some of these would lead to very bad outcomes.

I think the long term outcomes of Portugal's decision will hopefully open discussion.

Judging by many folks posts on here, I can see why 420 is a day celebrated by many scoopers.

I am looking forward even more to retirement as I feel like, having never consumed recreational pharmaceuticals in any form, I am missing out.
Need to get me some gummies.

I had 2 friends in college who were pretty careful. Drank and partied like college kids do, but never played with anything "illicit". Both got very good jobs, accepted offers about a month before graduation, passed the drug tests associated with said offers...and then both dabbled in marijuana for the first times in their life. One went to a concert, specifically with the intention of trying molly (which he did). The other had an experience with some pharmaceuticals. But both smoked for the next few weeks. Then after graduation, it was out of their system and that was it. Both got married and had kids by their late 20s and one of them drinks maybe twice a year now. It was all pretty amusing.
As for gummies, they are the truth. But they can definitely wallop you. I smoked a fair amount in college with some friends who were heavy vapor vegetarians, but wasn't a huge fan of it. But gummies I truly like, both to relax and to enjoy myself. The THC/CBD combos are my preferred

I like all forms of the magic herb.

I used to be anti-legalization but over time I have done a 180..As a possible substitute for opioids, that would be good/great development, IMO.
I have heard that different varieties/kinds have different effects. Is that true? Any recommendations for stress relief?? Probably better for me than a couple of glasses of whiskey??

I've only gone the recreational path not the medicinal route so "results may vary" and anyone with more knowledge should correct me.
First off, there are two main strands indica and sativa. Indica gives more of a body high, sativa is more of a mental one. In moderation indica will provide physical/pain relief, and sativa will allow you to process stress better. In excess, indica = in-da-couch (order a couple pizzas and binge Stranger Things), sativa = rabbit hole (grab a beer and go to a Tame Impala concert).
Second, there is the smokable vs edible. Smokable is an immediate hit and edible is a prolonged hit. IMHO edible is less harsh on the body (lungs) and you can ease into it with controlled intake.
-
Thanks for the info...I am more inclined to go the edible route...

Go to a good dispensary and they can get you what you need. I went in when all hell was breaking out at work and told the guy what was going on. He knew exactly what I needed. A good budtender will explain your options too,n
