Wha kinda vibes this year bringing?
Me granny woulda bawl if she see this headline.
Where they does come out with those type of events?
So if we are going to promote it , romantize it seending the message that it’s cool trying to defreniate about promoting medical Marijuana it’s the same ritual coming habit that resonates with the brain and released of dopamine the good feeling hormone that tricks the brain so all this hype about celebration is no plus to our young population you see their brains are so wired that they love challenges and extreme they hear don’t fo this as yes I can do this authority is always challenged by our youth so as we are seeing Marijuana induced psychosis cases on the rise from the abuse and the diagnosis after a clinical intervention from the behaviors we see so let’s wake uo and put some resources to cater for that population that would present with cannabis induce psychosis in our communities and some one has to step up and take the blame and be responsible because every young mind that is destroyed family suffers exponentially
Was it last week that the news had government was making it illegal for people to smoke in the street,this week there’s going to be a 4days celebration for cannabis, why Antigua always do things backwards, why not just put out some tables and handout information pamphlets on the topic,what are you teaching the children?.
