    It is not physically addictive. If your life sucks and you use it to cope, you’ll be cranky when you stop, same as if you used trash TV to cope but your cable goes out.

    You cannot overdose on pot. You can try, and the worst that will happen is that you’ll fall asleep. It is not dangerous on its own.

    Don’t like the schedule 4 distinction? Fine, pick another. But having it set to schedule 1, same as heroin and PCP, is insane and 100% politically motivated.

      I see you have meet an ex of mine. Totally useless and unable to do anything after work except watch 3 hours of the same TV shows she grew up with. No, we didn’t break up over this. It was mildly annoying not relationship breaking.

      Schedule 1 is bullshit but schedule 4 is too lax… schedule 3 would be the best fit… also on the topic, benzos should absolutely be ranked higher than 4.
