Sure the combo makes you more wasted, but just plain old smoking a doob (if you are used to it) doesnt do much. <br /><br />I think it was more the quart of vodka that put her in that condition. I USED to smoke weed, you build a tolerance. I cannot smoke it anymore because it makes me wasted. <br /><br />If alcohol is legal weed certainly should be.

She was a genius at hiding her addiction for years. Once in a very great while she would have a few drinks in front of people. <br /><br />Before I was 34 years old, I had only seen my Mom drunk one time.(when I was 14 yrs. old) That was at a neighborhood block party, and I was able to shrug it off. All of us shrugged it off because it seemed so unlike her.<br /><br />My Mom did not drink during the day until all of her children left home to marry. <br /><br />Before she died, my Mom told me her whole history of drinking. By that time we knew she had a problem. She had been drinking compulsively for 30 years, and we knew nothing about it until several years prior. By that time, she was under cancer treatment, and my Father had to sell my Mom's car to pay the bills. <br /><br />Her oncologist told my Dad that she had a bad liver and a bad pancreas. He was stunned.<br /><br />I believe that there are some addicts who can fool people.cherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07717256091553930518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6316617410436977874.post-17686856508622363622009-11-05T13:07:35.303-05:002009-11-05T13:07:35.303-05:00I would say you don't know any alcoholics Leah...I would say you don't know any alcoholics Leah.

Seems quite com...>Denial in the face of reality.<br />Seems quite common, irrespective of civil liability potential. Families often prefer to describe someone as missing rather than dead. Innocence of the accused is routinely asserted by family members and by the accused themselves. And defendants are often sorry for what happened but rarely sorry for what they did, only for what happened.FleaStiffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09837830811566745662noreply@blogger.com
