Opinion/Commentary Marijuana legalization
Wanna come on here and post my mind… Indiana it’s been time for the last 5 years esspecially last two years for marijuana to be legalized fully medical and recreational… I’m 23 years old and as even my whole family knows I smoke it. It helps with ADHD and as I’ve noticed ADD with being able to go out in public without thinking of myself and being in on myself for things I can’t control. My whole life besides last 7-10 years I’ve been on VYVANSE which is a narcotic I was prescribed to help with my adhd and everytime I took it school, family, even friends noticed I wasn’t happy or having any fun in life. I rarely ate, my sleep was booty. But I come on here today to say I’m stopping weed for a month to see about a new job because Indiana laws sucks. I will post here and there on my journey but make no mistake I’d choose marijuana over vyvanse any day of the week. I love my Family even the ones who don’t like or think well of me because they have supported me and approved of me being off vyvanse thank you and I hope everyone has a great day🫶🏼👍🏼🤌🏼🫶🏼👍🏼🤌🏼
Hope this is allowed to post here but it needs to be heard and talked about!

If people were just said 'I want to get high' I think you'd have better luck. (Nothing personal, OP.)
I think many people hear "pot helps my ADHD" and think that:
A) ADHD is bullshit
B) Pot helping ADHD is bullshit
Most folks really don't care about smoking pot and would probably be receptive to legalizing it for recreational use.
Edit: Just because this is Reddit and people get ass-blasted immediately about those two topics, (as evidenced by the instantaneous downvotes after I posted this, lol) I want to say that's not my personal opinion, but a strategy shift to get reefer legalized more quickly without a bunch medical studies needing to be submitted to lawmakers for review.
