Have you ever heard of self-medication?

Many people who self medicate use booze. Is that better?

seriously .. if someone has strong emotional problems which would you suggest: booze or pot?

emotionally damaged people ..

You hear about the guy that gets drunk and comes home to beat the wife and kids ..

Every hear about the guy just smoking some pot and doing the same? not drinking and smoking .. just smoking. no.. they just want to kick back for a while.

BTW .. one of the benefits of smoking pot is that it greatly curbs the desire for booze.
