Hi there. I am a constant dagga user,
I do not find myself an ‘addict’.
Yes I smoke weed, no I’m not a bad person.

I am 17 years old. I’m a recovered drug addict.
I have intense back pains and chronic depression.
While being a drug addict I never touched weed.
With my chronic depression I’ve gone through
many suicide attempts. I then tried weed and
suddenly my back pain was gone. I had no desire
to commit suicide or self inflicted plain. I
find myself being friendly and much easier to
handle my temper. If it weren’t for weed I
wouldn’t have come very far. My family was ready
to give up on me. There was no hope. I am now at
college after 2 years of not attending school.
I have an amazing mother who has restored hope
in me and an amazing boyfriend. Thank you weed
for saving me! I will continue to support this
cause until our plant is free.
