I could die if I tried marijuana and I still believe it should be legalized, so yeah.
Curious about this, could you please elaborate? Unless it has to do with the actual smoke.
Not only am I asthmatic but I also have some PTSD-related issues and oddly enough, the combination boosted my blood pressure to pretty scary levels the two times I went near the stuff.
Mind you, 2007 was a very bad year for me in general so that didn't help. Both times were within three months of eachother and the second time I wound up in the hospital. The doctors didn't believe it was straight-up weed because "that doesn't happen" but the tests proved it: it was straight-up weed. I reacted in an incredibly negative manner; blood pressure shot up. They ran an EKG thinking my heart was going ballistic but it's in perfect health, so yeah.
I had a special brownie in 2010 because two of my good GameFAQs buddies who became IRL friends since they live so close baked them and I experienced a much less insane version of those events that then made me really sick for a week to boot.
Suffice it to say, it's not for me.
