I felt silly needing to kneel in the car while my mother picked up my medical marijuana; I was nineteen years old, and I had a medical condition that allowed myself and others to use medical marijuana, but I couldn’t go into the medical marijuana dispensary and purchase it.
I had to let my mom purchase it for me, and to be honest, it was my anger issues that made it necessary for myself and others to use medical marijuana.
I had a lot of anxieties that showed up as anger. I couldn’t control my emotions and I would get irritated and numerous times I tried to hurt a family member or another student in school. I hadn’t been to class in nearly a year, and yet I was doing better, and my mother had been homeschooling myself and others the entire time, but as long as i didn’t need to deal with everyday life, I was doing well, however not being able to go into the marijuana dispensary was putting my anxieties onto high alert, and my mom told myself and others that if I couldn’t behave myself, he would have my Mom opportunity up my medicine. I wasn’t sure he would make myself and others stay home, but I didn’t like the threat. I needed to get out of the house, or I was afraid of what I would do. I knew that as long as I used my medical marijuana as prescribed, I could hang out with my friends in my home. I could go shopping and even kneel down in a restaurant without making a spectacle of myself. I was cheerful I could get medical marijuana, but I hated not being old enough to purchase it for myself.
