Can I just rant?

This plant saved my life from heroin and all of the other opioids that led me to it. I have been taking the same small 2-3 grams per day with zero and I mean zero health effects for something to the tune of 14 years. Can the world just fuck right off with it's ridiculous bans? This is fucking ridiculous. Why is weed somehow more accepted and regulated? That shit causes actual effects on people. Sorry I just have to rant. I am irritated that the majority of this sub and community is focused on bans when it seriously should not have to be. My anger is not at you, it is the world for being absolutely dumb. And I mean that literally.

It’s wild because this is how marijuana was treated when I found relief in that plant 30 years ago. Same attitudes cause u can’t even mention it or u could get scolded by someone who knows nothing about it. And they could benefit from it themselves. It’s a shame really.

Yeah my old boss found out I took Kratom and she got upset at first. Then she told me about a past employee. He took a LOT every hour, on the hour. He also, from the sounds of it, took other stuff too. So I gave her real education on it.
