100% pot IS the answer. Also stay the fuck away from Venlafaxine! That is the worst thing I have been on yet as far as being locked in. The drug works great, but the side effects and withdraws are horrendous! Try googling "brain zaps", I get these if I'm like 10 minutes late with the pill! Not worth it. I do highly recommend getting your rating correct though guys! You get a tax free check for the rest of your life, period! Not to mention you can get all your meds free for life. I don't like groups,individual,or counselling from psychiatrists, BUT being on meds that work for YOU helps tremendously for the people that have to deal with us on a daily basis. Alcohol has been the #1 reason for my friends going down hill in a hurry! One of my Soldiers was so fuct that he lost his license for dui, then drove anyway, went out to the bar with his brother, crashed drunk on the way home, killed his brother, went to jail! FUCK THAT! I never have the slightest regret for quitting drinking! I had my drinking days in the Army, more then any frat boy, and that's where I left it. Cannabis is such a better choice, as you have obviously seen otherwise I wouldn't know of you[guys]. All I can say is get help and let the VA pay you for it. Shit you could get enough money per month to offset some of your growing expenses! It's worth a shot. I'm definitely not preaching for the VA because I know like the rest of us that that place is broken. I'm just saying that you all most likely qualify for AT LEAST 70% disability through the VA. The VA is the only place that will do anything for US, UNLESS you apply for SSDI and collect that check. Once you get 70% disability and are deemed unemployable you get bumped up to 100%. Coupled with the SSDI money, your talking about around 50k/year, for the rest of your life. Not too shabby if you ask me. Now if you dont qualify for that whole shabang then you should still qualify for service connected disability. If you haven't done the VA assessment for all this GO DO IT. Again this is just my 2 cents. I'm anything but a freeloader, but I figure that the system fucked us sooo much that it's worth trying to get some of it back. Keep your heads up guys/gals! If you have any questions about anything hit me up! Please. If this isn't for you than that's cool too! Just trying to look after my fellow Soldiers/Farmers!
Cheers,
