Thanks for posting.
Addicts or even rookie drug users seem to think they are immune from the effects which is bad enough but what many miss are the side effects when they mix with other drugs and substances because they are minimizing at least one of the them. The potheads are one of the more recent offenders but I've witnessed people mix with alcohol and suffer effects as well. I know a big drinker who messed themselves up on steroids at first thinking they would offset and speed the recovery from heavy drinking but in fact wound up with strokes, high bp and diabetes among other things. They also tried slowly substituting pot for alcohol frequently mixing and wound up in some very nasty places/moods.
