to eric dec 25, 2007-harvard-why would you say all those things about something you obviously have no clue about? i'm not saying pot is good for everyone but some people really need it to live their daily lives. i'm 30 yrs old and i've smoked pot almost every day since i was 14. i have bipolar disorder and crohns disease. i also have a beautiful daughter and a husband who i love very much but life for us is very hard. pot calms me down and allows me to function normally. i'm sure it's cause i've smoked for so long but it really helps for alot of reasons. i smoked cigarettes for 12 years and i'm so glad i stopped spring of 2004. that's what was bad for me!!! thank you-neisha from pa
