Here's what I want to know..

Hypothetically, if there were a weekly 12-step meeting for MMj patients and others sympathetic to medical needs in sobriety:

A) Whom here on WT would commit to participating?

B) If it were located at or near a co-op, which co-op would those of you wishing to participate, choose for the location? Please name your top three in order of preference. Base your choices on location convenience and whether you think the facility and operator are compatible with the idea.

C) What day/time is best for you (list 1-3 date/time preferences. Meeting would probably be 1-1.5 hrs)?

D) Where are each of you located who would be interested in this? (city & closest freeway exit)

E) My work-in-progress name for this group may not be the best choice. "Meetings of the Medical-Marijuanically Marginalized" or MMMM Haha.. any other suggestions?

F) If this is something you would like to be involved in, but are limited because of illness, lack of funds or a ride, or routine time constraints... please, rather than letting those factors prohibit you, tell us what's up and we'll try to accomodate. If this group gets off the ground it will be dedicated to those who by circumstance are already marginalized in Recovery. It should be our aim to make everyone who is remotely interested, feel welcome and able to attend.


Thanks everyone, for your interest in this and your posts in this forum. I feel much better about my sobriety, knowing that with regards to Recovery and MMj, I am not alone.

Peace

Nice! Sunday at 5... Is that a suggestion for day/time of meeting or just for online chat? I have no experience running a chat session here, I'm assuming it's a simple process.

Normally, Sunday at 5 would work for me, but I'm out of town this weekend.

Other than that, I have regular meetings Tues 6:30-8 and Thurs 7:30-9. So those times are no good for me. We could still do the chat session Sunday at 5, I just wouldn't be able to make it, this Sunday. Well, who knows.. I might.. I'll be on the road but I'll have my laptop, so it's possible, if I'm near a hotspot.

Dustin L. - Age 27
Off Meth since 1/6/05
Off Alcohol since 3/1/05
Became MMj patient 8/10/06
Same goes for me on the 24/7 phone availability. My # available via PM. Glenn, I'll send you mine and get yours too..

Got it.

I think we can start out with just a Chat Meeting.. Say Sunday 5pm to 6pm. It will be pretty much an Introduce yourself and a Short diatribe about you.

Hey WT can we reserve the Chatroom for 1 hour?

Of Course the Phone is always on if you need me.

Hmm...I don't really know enough about the chat room functionality to know if you can reserve the room, but you're welcome to use it when you need it.

Has anyone tried MA (Marijuana anonymous)? I'm sure they are still around. I used to go to meetings years ago. I quit for 7 years and now I have my own co-op. Go figure.

that's to funny MA what now, i laughed out loud at CA we at NA call them the confused addict, i'm not sure what to call MA i know MATURE ADDICTS hahaha not funny!!! ok i did'nt think so either. it's so dam funny how we make oursleves so dam important that we have to have our own 12 program shit. unknow what i call that? terminaly unigue, or is it [ i need that quick spell shit] sorry, i hope you understand what i'm trying to say. it's all a drug alcohol, mmj is a plant with medicinal purposes that' make it a drug. it also changes the way you feel. anything in opinun can be addicting, it depends on the person and what they are useing it for. we as a human race have a problem with instant gradifcation, which inturn set's it up as addicted, anything can be addictive if not taken with moderation.as an addict my way of thinking is one is great 4 must be better and we are off and running. sometimes we don;t stop in time and we die , i have lost alot of peaple to this fukin decease my self inclued. my mother , my father my brother and i hope not my other brother drinks alot ans used to do alot of speed , but he seems to be doing ok now. i haven't talked to him in years he know i'm dying but won't call my son also they both won;t call me oh well i'm not gonna lose sleep over it . it's not my problem. i'm dam gratefull to clean and sober today. it's a good day see ya keep comeing back. it works if you work it! endlessky

Once I expire this year thats it....


No more renewal



I am too scared of cancer and stuff...


I just wanna be exercising and stick around on the earth for as long as possible.

I know sobriety is better

Even though I dont consider the herb to be a drug,

people like myself are addicted and it messes peoples lives up
both monetarily and physically.
I started using it for my back pains and things got bad...

I therefore will never renew

I will miss all the WeedTracker Bredren

I've been in and out of NA since 1981. MJ has always been my drug. Now I've been poz since 1982 and now find MJ helps my painful feet and gets me exercising. Have been going to MA about 5 months and have not been using ... but I think I am going back to using becuz of feet and general energy (MJ has always been a stimulant for me).

MA did nothing for me. The general tone was "I was loaded all the time and wasted my life." Well my life was that I was loaded and had lots of adventures but it's hard for me to function in the religious community where I dwell...so have been trying to be clean. Ambivalence is my middle name. (I talked to some NA friends today and they seemed to give me "permission" to back to MJ.)
