You have some story to tell. I'm sure all of you do. It is so sad what drugs are doing to so many people. I'm so glad you reconnected with your BFF. That must have given you a huge lift. Hope you are doing well and enjoy that wedding. Have a great day.

Thank you all so much. You have really helped me here. Her drug of choice was painkillers/opiates. We all just want her well and back in our lives and are trying to figure out how to deal with all of the changes. I really appreciate the information. Have a great day.
This is part of the info I got when we dealt with my husband's alcoholism and learning he was bipolar a few years ago. The psychiatrist gave us this bit of wisdom: Whenever the addiction takes over..emotional development sorta stops. Hopefully, when the addiction is no longer part of their lives..the emotional level begins to grow again.
I see what you mean, and yes, it can, but that isn't permanent. Once a person stops and rejoins the world their social skills improve rapidly. whereas a pot damaged mind is a permanent. They will be manic depressive schizophrenics for the rest of their lives.
Ive heard of it with heavy use of a lot of drugs.The thing about being reclusive Well I did that for a long time while using pills(off and on).I think w/the drugs comes depression as well.If u r on anything and dont really deal w/life it stunts ur emotional growth whether urs pot,pills,coke,booze whatever ur doc is
I've never heard of that. I've heard of mental problems where people don't mature like normal people. Smoking dope starting in the early teens can cause mental problems, schizophrenic, manic depressive problems, which may make a person seem like they are somewhat immature. Reclusive behavior is a common problem associated with long term pot use, and they just want to live like they were a teen all their lives. They sit around with all their reclusive pot smoking friends and complain about the world progressing (and leaving them behind, they think like a kid does as far as politics go, they want everything free and therefore are usually left wing lunatics))
