This is definitely a great topic 
in my honest opinion, I think only when one obsesses aboout whatever drug, is it a problem.
lets say for instance, this person thinks it’s "okay" to smoke a blunt on ‘occasion’
so they’re rule of thumb becomes lets say,,,,,,,, monthly.
so, for the entire month, they think "I cant wait til (whatever day) to smoke"
two weeks prior they are like buying whatever they want to have on hand for munchies, you know, gettin primed up. LOL
I just think,,,, ANY time you obsess over something, its a problem. When it controls YOU,,,,,,,,, its a problem.
Im with glen bee.
ive never really been the person that can do ONE, of ANYTHING. LOL and suboxone is the first thing Ive EVER been able to take like Im soposed to, also. in the begining, I had to ‘make sure’ I guess, that there was no reward. LOL but I did figure it out, and things have been great since.
Ive asked my doctor if ‘weed’ was okay. He said he thinks so, if it wasn’t previously a problem, and if I ever do smoke some, to just talk to him about it, you know in case I get a u/a. Well, the day we talked about it, I was like HELL YA
buddy!!!!
I haven’t though. I dont know what it is??? I dont really have any interest I guess. I thought I did, but I think it would make me feel guilty. and I dont want that to happen. If there comes a time, where I WOULDN’T think I’d feel that way, I might just smoke a ‘j’ LOL
but I’ll cross that bridge when I come to it.
Alcohol,,,,,,,,,, the only time I ever took it to the extreme was in high school. when I guess I was ‘being cool’ LOL
BUT,,,,,,
as an adult, or since Ive turned 21, I haven’t really drank. The smell of alcohol, especially the ‘stale’ smell,
brings a FLOOD of old (bad) memories, and I just can’t handle it.
So, I guess that’s a good deterant.
I did drink one beer like the first month I was on suboxone,,,,,,,,,,,,, I was at my husband’s family reunion….. and everyone was either smoking weed, drinking, or snorting something. I felt so outta place, and fragile. So I had a beer cuz I thought it would ‘take the edge off’
well…….I was in for a shock!! for me, it didn’t seem to ‘mix well’
my face felt hot, and I didnt ‘feel’ anything from the beer expect not great haven’t tried since.
there’s my two cents………….
I think all of us ARE different. we all came from different places, and had different ‘careers’ with drugs.
so,,, if you can have a beer or two or smoke a j and forget about it the next day, then great.
I mean, the odds are stacked against us,,,,,,,, we gotta do what keeps us sane!!!!!!!
