Martin,

Smoking pot can have negative effects on the person's health and it is an illegal substance, besides. Someone can be happy without using it.

Aasa,

You stand your ground and continue to make good decisions for yourself. You can support your girlfriend when she decides to stop smoking pot, but you can't make her stop until she is ready, unfortunately.

Bianca,

You know your boyfriend and whether you should trust him or not. If your gut feeling is that he is not being honest with you, then that may be a sign you should listen to it.

Derek,

I agree that some people use pot in the way you described to cover up the symptoms of mental illness. I'm very glad to hear that you have been clean and sober for many years.

The Author, Jennifer Chait overlooked the fact that many teenagers use pot as "self medicating" for underline mental health problems such as bipolar, and ADHD. Often the use of pot go's on far into adulthood and the underline mental health problems do not raise thier ugly heads until after the person detoxs or the pot looses it affect (no longer covers up the condition, which tends to some teens to move on to other substances. It took me 28yrs of substance abuse (using every type of street drug and alcohol) that led me in the end to attempting to shoot myself in head, because the self medicating nolonger worked for me. The good news is that I have been clean and sober for 18yrs with help doctors, prescribed medications for ADHD and bipolar, and a 12 Step program of recovery.
