The Dope Fiend

  Honestly, I kind of think my country (France) forbids weed today because of all the bullshit of the Reagan era and it’s pretty infuriating.

  Their depiction of weed as some super dangerous class 3000 hardcore drug ended up as some kind of standard for most of the developed countries.

  It sucks.

    It’s just indication to the fact, that the biggest part of our assumed development, our democracy, or our rule of reason is but a delusion.

    Especially when it has medicinal applications.

      Just like morphine. That doesn’t mean it’s not dangerous

    It’s just bewildering to prohibit a plant that is easy to grow, serves a lot of uses, and doesn’t easily get you killed.

    I’m also in Europe, and still trying to cope with the fact that I got into trouble with the law for tending a garden. Well I guess at least it re-radicalized me for all it’s worth.

      I had a similar experience with my poppy field ringed with gympie gympie.

      I’m all for legalisation, and I’m a regular user, but the fact that it’s a plant has always struck me as a weak argument. We can do better.

      It’s one tier better than “It’s natural!” (So are asbestos, arsenic, and anthrax.)

    considering how much French society despises US policy, I’m kind of amazed that France is still prohibitionist - that really does suck mate.

    Or maybe because it’s a drug (alcohol and tobacco are too ingrained in society to be outlawed, and despite that tobacco consumption is decreasing)

      I mean there are tons of drugs which are perfectly legal, so I don’t really see that as a sound reason to outlaw it.

    Be careful, you cannot do more than four marijuanas a year to avoid addiction

  PAWS is no joke, though.

    Those are also typical symptoms of people forcing a change in habits. An acute change if you will.

    Imagine someone who works remotely - when they’re informed they now have to do a 2 hour car commute everyday for no reason other than to see the boss even if it means less productivity.

    Those symptoms seem like a fairly normal response.

    The article you linked mentions it isn’t a recognized syndrome.

  • aaaa@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

    PAWS is no joke, though.

    While post-acute withdrawal syndrome has been reported by those in the recovery community, there have been few scientific studies supporting its existence outside of protracted benzodiazepine withdrawal.[8] [9] Because of this, the disorder is not recognized by the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders[10] or major medical associations.

    Maybe not a joke, but it doesn’t sound like it’s taken very seriously
