Ok - so I know my bf smokes MJ because he can relax and also play his guitar creatively, or more creatively...but he is also on antidepressants (Celexa/citalopram). I've never tried any drug ever and I rarely drink. I've always had a closed mind in regards to the MJ and he says "don't knock it til you try it" which I don't intend on doing, "a lot of the songs that you LOVE were created by people who were smoking MJ." and that I need to have an open mind about it.
He and I live 5hrs apart and that is part of the reason why he says he needs the celexa, me not being there and of course - money, not having enough, living paycheck to paycheck.
I don't want him to use MJ his whole life. Do people grow out of it? I know he used to drink a lot and get drunk and now a 6pack lasts him forever. I don't want us to be married and have kids and for him to be smoking when we have children who need to be cared for. I do try to have an open mind about it all. I know he could be doing SO many worse things. I know he loves playing the guitar and wants to pursue that as much as he can and I love hearing him play. I just personally do not understand the need to relax in that way or to escape reality for a while.
I'm looking for opinions on the combo of antidepressants and MJ, and whether people grow out of smoking MJ, and general opinions I suppose of MJ. I'm worried he's gonna do this the rest of his life and is it something I can learn to deal with or is it going to tear us apart? I don't think it's worth breaking up over, though. HELP!!! :D Oh, and please don't be mean or rude to me for feeling the way I feel because I'm not dissing anyone for using it or anything like that...I'm letting u know my opinions and fears and am asking for others opinions about MJ not about me. Thanks :)

One of the smartest things I did was dump my MJ smokin boyfriend.....
Got tired of him being stoned and me not, cuz I was staying away from the stuff. B O R I N G when he stoned and I not. Sure as sh*t wouldn't want it round my kids.
When I was in detox program, there was guy there for MJ addiction...
MJ nowadays really is strong, not at all like the stuff when I was a kid.
My thots.
