Hi all! Well I figured I'd add my .02 to the hijak train here
I have epilepsy... I take 600mg of Lamotrigene and 200mg of Topirimate (Lamictal and Topamax until they fortunately went generic several months ago for those of you searching away right now) every single day.
Without these drugs I have seizures
throughout the day, every day, with several gran mals (the kind that make you pass out and lock up for a few min) each day. Taking these drugs however, allows me to lead a normal life, seizure free.
Here is the kicker. I used to be a realatively heavy smoker. Standard 1.5 - 2 packs a day and I could get 3 packs pretty easy on those long days in the field. When I was smoking cigarettes - I still had seizures every so often. Now that I ahve quit regular ciggies and have been
vaping the last 2 years - no seizures for the last 1.5 years period.
So my point is you can sling poo from any direction you want and it might stick, but guess what? You still smell like poo cuz you been flingin it too.
There are no labels but what society creates. Your own opinion or decision on the way things are interpreted is one thing, flinging poo at someone who doesn't agree with you just stinks up the place. Diplomacy or no diplomacy it doesn't matter.
In my opinion and interpretation. I am definately a drug addict. If I don't use my drugs... I don't function. Also, if I don't use my nic juices once in a while, I get a little testy and anxious. However none of the drugs I am using are directly harming those around me, and I do not use my PV in front of any children or anyone I don't want to influence with the idea of smoking /
vaping that does not already.
If I am not causing harm to others and I am not breaking the law, then don't sling poo in my direction and neither of us will get stinky. If you get your hands dirty, then don't complain about the smell when you get poo all over yourself.
Take care,
- Hap
