Default Intervention for pot... WTF

So, ive been with my girl now for 2 years on and off.. and we blaze every day but thats about it she hasnt touched any other drugs other then shroomies and e once or twice. Her parents invited me over for a bbq lunch today at least thats what I was expecting. When I showed up the shit hit the fan her parents planned a fucken intervention and my girl actually agreed to get "help" her parents want me to get "help" too.


It was the worst experience of my life I never heard so much bullshit come out of anyones mouth. The counsellor kept feeding me bullshit saying that it's taking over my life ruining my body this and that... Of course I denied the treatment and now my girl doesnt even want to talk to me... /end rant I would keep typin but I realize this aint no myspace blog

Basically just wondering how many of you had to deal with the same bullshit as me.

You're probably better off, you were going to have to deal with her parents down the road anyway. A girl that was spawned from such idiots is unfit to reproduce.

I fed the troll lulz.

Sounds pretty stupid really but there are some people I know personally who could benefit with some kind of intervention with the way they are letting their lives go over such a stupid drug as weed.

Some people do have problems related to weed. It's not the drug's fault. Any addiction, physical or not, can be harmful.

If you're a reasonably productive person and they're hassling you just because you like to smoke pot, then it's certainly bullshit.

I would have just started laughing, then ask where Astion was because I would have thought I'd been punked.


But seriously, I would have just left the room and light up a bowl at my place. No intervention for weed. They do that on T.V. for crack heads and shit, not weed. Fuck that shit.

my family only sends people to rehab if their life is close to an end. and it has happened multiple times.....infact it seems like every member is an addict in some shape or form of something or another.

I think this is the best answer.

But obviously you have chosen drugs over your girlfriend. And she is obviously not very important to you or you would atleast made an effort to stay with her, so you need to just forget about her now. I am sure she was very hurt that you chose to do drugs over staying with her. That shows you do not really care about what is best for her or if she is happy. Seriously If i loved a girl i would give up weed for her. So she is nothing to you,that is what you showed her. If you really like this girl and you want to bewith her/stay with her you need to give the shit up. if her parents were trying to get you to goto rehab for weed that is stupid and rehab being so expensive i hope they were atleast going to finance it for you considering how goddamed expensive it is. That is alot to ask a person to get help, but it is alot more to ask you to pay that much money for a silly weed HABIT.

I got the same shit for smoking weed and cigarettes when I was barely 16. I've yet to forgive my family for their bullshit move and fucking up my high school career.

OP: I would've called her a hypocrite and walked as well as having a few choice words for her family and the counselor.

well just because weed is seen as harmless and relativly socially acceptable compared to other drugs doesnt mean it doesnt affect your life negativly.

I often wonder if getting high everyday is better living through chemistry, surely there are enlightenment that can be known through our sober state, and after all sobriety is not "sober" in and of itself, if the chemicals in your brain where swapped with that of the chemicals in weed, so you were smoking sobriety you would be going "omgwtfsobrietyftw111my senses and awareness is so great and i can feel such a variety of emotions and analysys".

So yeah maybe you have put drugs before other commitments.

People>Drugs. I know sometimes you feel like going fuck it people suck my drug is always there for me, but at the end of the day its gotta be people, because if it isnt thats when drugs are gonna fuck you over.

Perhaps you could tell your girlfreind it is such an intrinsic part of your life, she needs to realise what she has done is insulting such a core essence of your being, and at the same tell her how much you care about her and you value her more than drugs, but she needs to understand that what she did was a knee jerk reaction and makes you feel like you cant communicate or trust her. or something like that.

if she tells you to fuck off after that then im sure you know what to do.

The topic of addiction pisses me off in general. Not the concept of habituation of course, but the term addiction, and the stigma it carries with it. Anything can be "addictive" or "habit forming". Fuck, some people develop severe "habits" that don't make ANY sense, such as hand washing, eating, watching TV, etc etc. But they actually DO make sense. It's simple. We find something we like, and we like to do it. Simple as that. The thing is, some folks can get too engrossed in whatever their habit is, and that's when things get out of control.


The key to beating "addiction" or habit formation is to simply STEP BACK from your life a minute and examine things. Psychedelics are fucking win for this, especially mushrooms. The more the better :D After actually laying things out and being logical about it, you can learn to use drugs as the tools they are, and not simply for gratification, which is really the root of any addiction, or habit.

Humans are weak. It is our nature. The difference between a junky and a responsible user is that the junky gives in to his weaknesses without fail, and to extreme, while the responsible user pretty much looks at things from a totally logical point of view.

amen to that. i love smoking weed but usually when i feel i need to relax. and even though i love it i know it's stupid to wake and bake because personally for me it makes me lose all motivation and makes me unproductive, so i can tell myself no. what is fucking awesome is instead of doing drugs you're addicted to all the time, save that money and start a drug collection. and you'll be real fucking happy when the occasion pops up and you need the right tool for the situation. for example you go camping and instead of looking for shrooms at the last minute and not getting them, you got some stashed away. or you forgot to study and you need an adderall the night before the exam. shit like that.
