How to bay

I've been on just prescribed suboxone and weed for 4 years, I don't even think about opioids anymore, even though suboxone is technically one, its not a drug that gets me high.

An actually very helpful, science based, and non-moralizing take. Thanks for this! What I needed to hear today :)

Immediate difference!

I'm just finding about California sober and didn't realize alcohol was included. There's nothing sober about that.

Do not stand up while doing this!!! Sit down or lay somewhere

Thank you so much!

Didn't realize that for her "cali sober" included alcohol, which is a hard drug. Ridiculous. I have never been addicted to anything but still use the term to specifically describe my rejection of alcohol and other hard drugs for weed only, which I genuinely do believe to not be very harmful. Still wouldn't advocate it for kids. Cheers.

Great interview!!! I just watched episode 1 (The Spark) yesterday!!! Absolutely mind boggling the effect this industry has had and continues to have on our teens our country and the world.

Mmj can be dangerous for people with mental health conditions, but this woman wrote a paper claiming mmj killed her son. This is an incredibly controversial, and frankly after reading her story insanely unethical, stance to take. In her, God knows how she got it peer reviewed, paper she does not list any of the other factors in determining a cause for suicide (family history genetic or personal, failures of mental health professionals to adequately treat his issues and most importantly wether her political and social stances had negative effects on her children. Frankly as someone who uses mmj for medically caused nausea and has seen it effect others negatively I was hoping to find real research on the topic. I wonder what causes a publisher form the deep south might have to publish something clearly political and unscientific in nature? There's no red state blue state bs in our country is there? Noone from MO has an interst in dunking on mmj for political purposes? Come on. I'll take a listen but I suspect Karen who thinks she's a scientist. Using your sons death as a political jumping off point is fing low.

Thanks for explaining

And all these bans and junk regulations are getting getting pushed through at the state and federal level while theyre legalizing marajuana at the state level in multiple states. "Lets demonize Nicotine"(shown to be neural protective) while legalizing THC(the vape that actually made all those kids sick a few years back, they were to scared to admit that to mommy/daddy and the local news) so they all cried that nicotine vapes made them sick

Also authorized devices only owned (atleast partly) by big tobacco companys theyre killing an industry when they could have made a law only allowing vape shops to sell the products because lil Jimmy,Bobby,Billy and Mandy aren't getting their disposables from a vape shop theyre getting it from gas stations and bodegas that have no problem selling to people under 18/21

"Open the door a crack and you may get a flood" sounds like the perfect analogy of the FDA and vaping regulations. Its aggravating they still say thing like youth smoking/vaping epidemic(you know because a focus group responded most to that phrasing). Kids are always going to rebel/partake in risky behavior wouldnt it be safer if they used products that are proven to be 95% less harmful than smoking, also most of the people ive talked to mention how its easier to quit vaping than smoking. On the other hand i do believe they shouldnt be vaping 50mg salt nic if they were never a smoker. Vaping also tends to be much much less expensive than smoking which can help people save money and attain a better quality of life, i can vape all month for the price of a pack of cigarettes if youre just starting it'll cost a bit more because you'll need a device which thanks to our lovely goverment will cost you more than it would have a year or 2 ago

I'm sorry about your loss. But your opiins are not fact. Marijuana does not cause schizophrenia. Or any of your claims. Clearly hecwas on something else or had underlying conditions. You tried to cure something that's not addictive and brainwashed him which caused him to give up.

Brilliant and common sense. Pot smoking was a gateway dope road for me that ruined a great music career in country bluegrass. The lyrics are clear in the Billy Strings/Wille Nelson version. The term "California Sober" has been around a long long time. Its clearly indicating that smoking dope is a break in hard liquor use. But the final verse makes it clear she fell off the wagon numerous times and the devil always wins meaning she has lost the will and hope in life. I truly hope Billy Strings disent go down the road always traveled and ruined many great legions. Some made it, most did not!

What if your kid-friendly logic is wrong? Seeing that risen teen use correlates with the eradication of smoking (more harmful & addictive), is *all* youth NVP use non-beneficial? And if the magic deterrence from synthetic "tobacco" flavours doesn't hold true, wouldn't you actually be lobbying for smoking habituation?

Good video, helped me out 👍

Hello

I was recently diagnosed with Bipolar 1 and concurrent PTSD. I have lived on a roller coaster to hell and back repeatedly throughout my life. I have been trapped in exactly what you are describing here and your video is extremely helpful and informative! Thank you!

Is it social evaluation anxiety affecting her mental health?

😘 ᴘʀᴏᴍᴏsᴍ

Everyone has to draw their own line in the sand as far as what sobriety means to them. I personally don't think people are as sober as they lead on, particularly while they smoke/vape nicotine, and ingest caffeine. Both are mood altering substances correct?

When you've been in therapy for years, tried all the medications, and yet nothing works and this is all you feel you can turn to. Psychedelics truly are a life saver. Lsd saved my life when nothing else could and for that I'm truly grateful. It taught me how to love myself for all my flaws, it taught me how to teach others to love themselves. And it's been teaching me how to be a better person. Truly these tools must be utilized, but that isn't to say that they don't have their downsides. My sense of self has been fractured, I've been laced and caught addictions, I've had to deal with real psychosis (mental hospital type beat) thanks to this stuff yet I truly wouldn't be here without it. Just know that the reason people self medicate with this stuff is because they are tired of being a victim of their own circumstance and they want a change in perspective. These are the perfect tools to give that change, and in fact they are the only tools that have actually worked (for me at least).

sad thing is kids tend to use disposable vapes or small devices that use disposable cartridges FDA has issued MDO's to all the bottled liquids adult tend to use and open system devices that are too expensive and bulky & hard to hide for kids to want, history should tell you that a black market that doesn't care who they sell to will open up to meet demand, see Australia now or 1920-1933 alcohol prohibition era for an indication that making something people want illegal does not make it go away. not to mention all of the vape businesses that will close down and the resulting extra unemployment this will cause.

The problem is that "vuse" is put out by a big tobacco company. We should be able to look at history and see where that will lead.

Thank you for this video. Sam Quinones has a message about the "new meth", i.e. P2P meth so-called; yet very few people understand the importance of this message. Let me start with some preliminaries. My son (1993-2019) became a meth user. His behavior was such that I thought he had been sniffing airplane glue or solvents (huffing). But his problem was primarily meth. The meth subculture is full of experts of deception; there is no group of people whose individuals are so prone to tell a lie, even if it is a bald-faced lie: that is, catching someone using a drug then having the person vehemently, even aggresively defending the lie even in the face of irrefutable evidence. My son's mother and I (we are separated since he was very young) both suffered through several years of my son's meth addiction, and didn't know what to do. He spent several months in jail and was jailed several times. The financial impact alone of that was horrendous: lawyer's fees, bail bonds, fines, the cost of an ignition interlock, and the usuric fees charged to make a phone call to an incarcerated loved one. Not to mention basic support, for due to his addiction, he could not hold a job long and any extra money went to drugs. Christmas presents or other gifts were sold for drugs. When my son was brought into court, I saw him in leg irons and manacles. Sometimes he was sent to "rehab", which as far as I can tell only served to placate the court and give my son eighteen days away from access to the drug. 12-step programs were, though promoted to some extent, ineffective, because meth users are too paranoid, and too know-it-all, to reach the level of humility required. Outpatient treatment requirements, another financial burder for the parents, was seen by my soon as an obligation only. The fact was, he just wanted to get through the legal requirements in order to be out in the world again where meth was universally available at affordale prices. One of his girlfriends, a few years ago, chose meth over safety, sanity, and security, and is now most likely in a tent encampment where she can get more of this poisonous substance to inject into her veins, though she doesn't know what is in the drug she prepares for the syringe. My son became increasingly dishonest, unruly, and even violent, though he had been brought up by two pacifists who do not ever resort to violence to decide issues. The P2P meth made him insane. This was complicated by benzodiazepine use, chiefly Klonopin, on which he overdosed at least twice (that I witnessed; I assume there were other overdoses). My son died three years ago in July. He was driving a motorcycle and while attempting to outrun the police, who wished to pull him over for reckless driving or speeding, he went off the road at high speed, hit a tree, and died, on the weekend of July 28, 2019. At his funeral was his ex-girlfriend (with her daugher- so I knew she was temporarily straight and was allowed visitation). So that was in August 2019. Eight months later she came to see me and we became involved again. But she would come to see me, and then disappear for months. The call of the drug, and the lifestyle of doing whatever was necessary to get the drug, was too strong. I assume, now, she will either die of a drug overdose or from some drug-related cause, or will continue as a prostitute until she completely loses her looks, and then still continue, for there are men who will pay any woman, no matter how sick she is or how desperate, in order to have sex. That is a whole other issue. A year ago she came to see me. She had been living in a tent encampment. She had nothing, not a phone, not a dime; nothing. She slept for two days here and then went back to the drug world. Believe me, having meth as a rival for your affections is a losing proposition for any man. A woman on meth is enslaved by, and devoted to, the drug, to a degree which no man however decent and good can overcome. P2P meth is a drug straight from hell. My whole life is grief now for what meth did to my son and to other people who I met as a result of his addiction. Thank you, Sam Quinones, and keep up the good work.

Alcohol is a hard drug

Most of shit is bullshit. If your not pro Cali sober and pro harm reduction for the people it works for, your pro death

i did not need to be called out like this

Exactly! I suffer from social anxiety myself and some of the side effects of this is nausea and vomiting, just like feeling nervous before a sporting event for example. This side effect is caused by the fear that something bad will happen and the more we try to prevent it from happening the more it will happen. For example fear of embarrassment in public and fear of being judged. All of that is part of social anxiety. And unfortunately some of the symptoms of feeling sick due to this mental illness are the same symptoms experienced when someone is extremely waisted and lots of ignorant people out there instead of helping a person out jump to the conclusion that this person must be some drunk bum from the street. I had severe panick attacks in public before as part of my social anxiety and I started losing my balance and feeling extremely dizzy and not walking straight and people just have it in their minds and assume without knowing me that I must be a drunk even though I have never drank alcohol in my life. It's a sad judgmental society that we live in which is one of the prime causes of mental illness.
