I have never been an avid user of cannabis.
When I was in high college, I tried pot with my friends. I didn’t love the taste or the smell. I tried using pot again at college, however I didn’t have a fantastic experience that time either. After I started entirely to work full-time at an office, I found it more and more difficult to sleep well at night. I had trouble falling asleep and I could not sleep for more than an hour or two at one time. If I awoke in the middle of the night, I was awake the rest of the night. One of my co-workers, Gus, advised smoking a marijuana joint before going to bed. I wasn’t recognizably interested in trying the suggestion, but Gus brought myself and others a joint a couple of days later, but Gus brought the joint in a small bin and presented it to myself and others at lunch. Gus told myself and others to take it apartment and smoke some before I went to sleep. Since I didn’t have to pay Gus for the marijuana, I decided to accept it and take it home. Gus’s marijuana joint sat on my bedside table for many days before I finally decided to light it up. It was just after midnight and I was wide awake. I had a meeting busy at 8 in the day and I needed to be alert and well rested. I lit the marijuana joint and took a couple of puffs. I coughed and coughed, but it didn’t take but a few minutes before I started to believe the effects. My arms and legs got lighter and I became severely drowsy. After I drifted off to sleep, I did not wake up until my alarm was ringing.
