> no muffled I wouldn't think it would be ok for a friend to smoke as much as me
> but I would understand it

*I think I proly understand to some extent.
But if its causing trouble, or you think it might be, well, then mebbe its time to cut back and/ot stop. BUT you need to replace the pot coping mechanism....find ways to cope w/o smoking...

> I asked him if he ever smoked pot...he was a little defensive, and said "why do you want to know?"
> and I said because some people think it's "BAD"
> and other people think that it's ok, but maybe that it's not good for everyone

*LOL! He didn't want to say? LOL!!! I asked my T...I think she said she hadn't, and yet she was a child of the 60's.
LOL mebbe bring a joint in and ask him if he wants to toke up?! LOL!!!
I think pot is NOT really very good for people in ANY way really. Its hard on the body. But its also not the worst thing in the world in moderation I suppose.
That being said, I would REALLY NOT be happy if I found out my kids were smoking up.

> I don't know what that means
> and he said "I grew up in the sixties...I worked in a rehab in the 70's"" - as if he was saying "of course I've smoked pot! but there is a difference between someone saying it's not "bad", but it's not always a good idea"
>
> and today I told my pdoc that while I was walking toward the door that I have this tendency to think that people are hating me

*that'd be negative self talk. I was good at that. I used to foever twist stuff my oldT said. It kinda got to be a standing joke, that when she'd say stuff, she'df repeat it and check, and say DON'T you go twisting my words around!
I learned to check with her when her words seemed cruel, cuz that was a sure sign I was twisting, cuz she was never ever mean to me.

> and he said "what would you say if I said that I could never recall a time when I thought that I hated you"
> and I said "oh, you probably did hate me at some point, you just don't remember" and I was so blase about the whole thing, he even laughed a little, maybe about me telling him what he thinks
> ...I dunno

*he was laughing cuz you was seemingly sending him a joke bout not remembering.
But I bet he was telling the truth bout not ever hating you.
But of course, you sound like me with my twisting.
Its good to ask and check. Over and over if you have to.
Even if you don't beleive what they say.
Mebbe its sinks in some after a time.
Seems to have w/me.
Take care,
M
