Drug Healing
Saturday, May 9th, 2009In Alcoholics Anonymous they say, “Once and addict, always and addict.” Though I deeply admire and respect the work of this organization, I’m here to say that this is just not true. I know. I proved it.
I was a marijuana junkie for ten years to the second. Yes, a stoner. Inflicted with reefer madness. 
) I first got stoned New Year’s Eve 1969 at 12:00 midnight and I stopped for good New Year’s Eve 1979 at 12:00 midnight. For the first three years I was what one might call a social smoker – weekends, parties, occasionally with a friend. For the next four years, I was a full-blown junkie, getting stoned every day around 3:00 in the afternoon and staying stoned the rest of the day. During that time I never really thought much about my addiction. It was just something I did, something a lot of us did in the mid-seventies.
