Glad you found a supplier & can now feel normal. And I like your "deny reality" comment - you're exactly right. I've had more true insights high than when I wasn't smoking.

I like both pot & alcohol, although I much prefer pot over any alcohol as a mood elevator & insomnia relief, I love the flavor of some wines & most beers. My only substance mood-elevator now is tequila but I have to drown it in OJ just to tolerate the taste.

The problem is my hubby is so old school, like Biden I suppose, that he objects to any pot even being in the house. Grrr. When I was a working girl in my 20s & he was still in grad school, I ignored his protests. I'll be glad when it's sold in shops without even needing a prescription.
