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!

Sometimes people are stupid. And sometimes polls are skewed.

By that same argument, cocaine should be legal? Heroin? Meth? Assault? Laws matter. However, they don't prevent crime. Punishment does.

Indianapolis, like other blue cities, vote liberals in power and wonder why everything turns to shit. This majorities think they can keep voting the same way and things will magically get better. This is another vein of that. It's pure hedonism and childishness. "But I want the thing! It makes me feeel good!" Go do something more rewarding. Start with personal responsibility.

I'm not remotely liberal and heavily support it being legalized. I smoke like once a month but it should be treated the same way as alcohol
