I mean one of those: the driver doesn’t clearly have anything to do with cannabis use, and with your other friends there’s very weak evidence linking long term cannabis use with psychosis, if there is going to be a psychotic break then the user will experience it early on and it’s most likely genetically related AND very likely to happen in any case. It seems like you might just being using anecdotal evidence to justify your already existing conclusions about a substance.

You didn't fuck up. Survival skills are a great addition to any kids skillset, it's not somehow your fault that she ran away. In fact she's probably now less liable to get herself hurt before she comes back.

And she'll thank you (maybe not out loud) when she gets help for her self harm and your medical skills leave her with less severe scarring.

You could look at this as a FU, sure...but what I see is her home life was not that great so she used the knowledge she picked up from you (and honestly probably a lot more than you...) to escape for a while. At least you taught her well...when I did the same thing around 13 it was all self taught and trial and error...and a LOT of error

Can't speak for OP, I used to get sinus infections once a month at minimum (it felt like they never went away) and my allergies combined made me miserable. IIRC they were taken out late teens early twenties - one of the best decision I made.

They should have ripped them out when I was much younger TBH.

In what way is defending myself sick? He swung a huge bottle at my head and I’m lucky I didn’t pass out from the hit. This man was physically aggressive toward me and I fought back so he didn’t continue harming me. Obviously I recognized I fucked up by going after him, which is why I posted this under this sub!! I realize it was a mistake!! No shit!! But, under no circumstance, am I going to allow a man, or anyone for that matter, attack me without getting some kind of attack thrown back at them
