Hey guys so I know you've all probably seen countless threads like these before but I would just like to have my problem answered, so I tried talking to my mom about weed and she kind if confused me. She told me that she would fully support me if the doctor were to give me a prescription for medical marijuana but that she wouldn't condone me using it recreationally. I along with my entire family am 100% Colombian and over there people view stoners as complete and utter drug addicts. My mom told me that she would see quote on quote "stoners" high and that they would become violent and exhibit the syndromes that a heroin addict would experience such as withdrawals. Now from my experience smoking and seeing other people do it I know this not to be true but anyways I told her that marijuana won't cause violence and that most of the smokers there tend to be on harder drugs but being the stubborn and sometimes know it all lady that she is she shrugged it off saying it was a lie but then I also told her that it wasn't bad for you and gave her all the facts and she seemed to believe it. So then I brought up the situation of me smoking it recreationally when I was older and she said that she wouldn't be happy, I asked why and she said because there's no need to be altering your mind with drugs but yet she agreed with medical marijuana. She has a point with the whole no need for it but sometimes I just feel down on my luck and find that smoking helps me get over it for a while, it's not like full stage depression but sometimes I can't cope with situations ,like my sister constantly calling me an idiot because my ideas or thoughts don't go with hers or she disagrees, she doesn't view this as a big deal because I look like I get over it quickly but it just leaves me feeling like I am a true idiot which makes me feel depressed or sad.Anyways I've already been caught by her once and now she uses it to blackmail me into being her servant which I hate and which is why I want to convince and tell my parents that I smoke. If any of you guys have been in a situation like this and have succeeded then any advice from your view is greatly appreciated, thank you
How old are you, smoking does fuck you up if you start using it regularly in your teens! She is your mum though, she will never support you smoking weed no matter what. Just keep the fact you smoke hidden from her out of respect and she will probably just ignore it and let you do your own thing.
I'm 15 and I know I'm not really a regular smoker it's just something I do ocassionally , but thanks for the advice, I might just consider stopping for a while though
My advice is stop till you have goals, and smoke when you can and when it's not going to interrupt your ambitions to achieve said goals. I know a lot of friends of mine have fucked their life up because they put weed first before achieving success.. now they selling tinnis out of a state house.. you want that life, hell no you don't, no one does so get your ass back in school boy
Lol, but I do go to school I go to one of the best schools in my state and I try my hardest, some of my friends ended up being burnouts but not me, I hope to go into the medical field,a pediatrician to be precise, I get perfect honors but I think I'll lay low for a whole maybe just do it when offered but I don't think I'll waste my money, thanks for the advice though it really helped
My mom was and is very anti-weed. It took me turning 18 for her to just accept the fact that I toke up and don't want to quit and will not quit in the near future. She still hates it, but i also think she learned a lot from my smoking. She used to be like seriously anti-weed. She acted like it was heroin or something. Now she isn't as crazy about it. I think me smoking pot for nearly 5 years and it not having a real negative affect on my life might have altered her view a bit. Even though she would not admit it in a million years
I tried to talk about it to her but now shes suspicious of me, like I can't bring the topic up without her asking me if I wanna smoke or something, sometimes I'm tempted to say that I do wanna experiment with it or that I already have but I'm scared of her reaction, same thing with my dad, but thanks for your advice, it's greatly appreciated
So here's a little update, today I told her that I wanted to experiment with it and she said that I shouldn't be thinking that way, she said that the concept of inhaling something isn't good for you and I didn't wanna bring up the fact that she used to smoke cigarettes , I asked what would she do if she found out that I had smoked and she said that she would've been disappointed because that's not how she raised me, that's pretty much all she said.
