It is common for people to get paranoid on pot, but that usually goes away at some point.

If one has a beer, or glass of wine first, some times that will negate the paranoia.

But getting paranoid on pot is probably the main reason most don't smoke it.

In my old age, I want to be honest about what I post.

I am so tired of having to sanitize everything i.e. dumbing it down because people can't face reality, and in my old age I am not going to do it anymore.

Dumbing things down is the pet peeve of most of our great thinkers e.g. Montaigne said:" the older I get the less I fear to say what is on my mind."

And I could post a hundred of them like that.

So for many seniors pot is a god send!! It reduces pain, and can reduce anxiety, helps sleep, and it makes life more fun, e.g.watching movies.

AND the big one is, for a while one doesn't dwell on their aches and pains and knowing death is near!

We get a break from that.

I love it!!
