CONVERSATIONS WORTH HAVING
Finding Your Path of Recovery
Recovery isn't a "one size fits all" get up..it’s more like a 3 piece suit tailored to your soul. For a long time, the normies and the ones doing the judging told us that recovery had to look exactly one way—total abstinence from every single mind-altering substance, or you weren't "clean" or "productive".But as we grow more open-minded, we’re realizing that the goal of recovery isn't just a sobriety date; it’s stability,positive physical and mental health, ya kno homie a life worth living...
For many, the journey getting away from their drug of choice is a mountain to climb. Everyones journey is different, you gots to understand that substance use disorder is the outcome of a untreated off balance core system.Our bodies are producing chemicals needed but not in a balanced nature...When lookin at it like this we can see that for some Juggalos, ma*****na, When used with respect, this plant isn't a way to get "lit" or "high asf"; it’s a tool or medication.Its all about balancing yourself on that tight rope....
A Closed mind will continue to be blind to the benefits, while others can compare it to diabetic with off balanced insulin levels...
You might hear normies in NA or AA ask, "How can you be in recovery if you still use w**d?"
We like to look at things a lil different....
The primary goal is to stop the behaviors that lead to the death while improving daily living...If regulated ma*****na keeps a ninja from a fit of anxiety or panic that may push them back to their drug of choice well that is a massive victory for anybody who truly knows that experience. If ma*****na is the thing helping a juggalo with a eating disorder find the ability to eat with any sense of normalcy then thats a win.If ma*****na is treating symptoms without causing problems in any area.... we refuse to hate on it..After years of hard use, the brain's chemistry is often in chaos. For some, cannabis helps manage the crippling anxiety, insomnia, or chronic pain that usually acts as a "trigger" to go back to our drug of choice...
Being in recovery means you’ve stopped the cycle of destruction. There is a massive difference between chasing a high to disappear or run and using a natural plant (regulated and controled ) to stay grounded so you can show up for your kids and put in work that overtime your stinkin thinking would stop you from..
Being "in recovery" is a state of the mind and heart. It means you are no longer a slave to the stinkin thinkin....It means you are staying strong for your Homies, being a present parent, and keeping yourself wicked but beautiful....
If some ma*****na helps you find peace ( not is the peace ) without any sort of chaos, that is your journey, and it is valid. Some call it "California Sober," others call it "Medication-Assisted Recovery," but we just call it your path.... your story...and we fu**in accept it and ask you to share it with any juggalo you feel comfortable to do it with..
Keep your head high and your heart open. As long as you are moving forward, staying productive, and keeping it "wicked" while not partakin in your drug of choice you are winning the battle.....
HOWEVER ......
Some muthaf**kees can use the plant as a medicine but it’s also important to stay real with yourself—if ma*****na was your drug of choice the relationship looks a lot different. For some ninjas, ma*****na wasn't just a "medication"; it was the main way to ghost reality and avoid the work of growing. If the g***a is what led you to lose focus on your goals, or it made you slack at the warehouse, or let the yourself down or is what you run to when experiening emotions of any sort then "medicating" might just be a mask for the same old cycle to continue...Every juggalois different. Open-minded recovery is about honesty; if you’re using it to chase a high rather than find a balance, it might be time to put the g***a down and find a path that keeps your head completely clear of the fog. True clown luv means supporting your brothers and sisters in knowing when a tool has turned into a crutch.
ITS SIMPLY ABOUT FINDING YOUR PATH OF RECOVERY, YOUR WAY OF A BETTER LIFE..
