All of my newsletter readers and blog readers know how I feel about\u00a0what I call the
\nNew Psychotic Pot that’s been legalized in two states so far here in
\nthe US. Now, we have a bigger problem in
\nthe world- synthetic pot. I spoke to a lot of younger people when I was
\nin California last week- (wow, when did I get old enough to call those
\nin their 20s ‘young people’ he hehe! )\u00a0 I said this and I stick by it,
\n“I don’t care what people without bipolar disorder do regarding smoking
\npot. Their brains are not like our brains. Bipolar brains don’t respond
\nwell to the new, incredibly strong, hydrophonically grown and
\ngenetically modified pot. So, if you have bipolar disorder, you need to
\nthink about your pot use differently. It’s a choice. Now, the bigger
\nissue is synthetic pot- also called Spice. Here is a short news story on
\nthe topic. It highlights the dangers of using synthetics when the real
\nstuff is illegal.<\/p>\n

I’ve also included a link to a superb TIME
\nMagazine story on synthetic pot.\u00a0 I smoked a lot of pot in the 80s and I
\nhave bipolar disorder.\u00a0 So this isn’t some soap box. I would not TOUCH
\nthe stuff that’s out there now. I respect my bipolar brain too much to
\nsubject it to possible drug induced psychosis! I don’t want to offer a
\njudgment… just information.\u00a0 Tell me what you think after you watch
\nthe video! I’m interested! Julie
