[QUOTE="Mikey, post: 38341, member: 3579"] Hi Karen. I agree, it's now time to take on the weedmonster. Everyone agrees. Just trying to figure out next steps. and re: "And by the way, pot peanut butter crackers?? Whatever happened to the hash brownies?" Brownies you actually have to cook. This other way, you simply mix the pot in peanut butter, smear it on some crackers, and bake it for a few minutes to get the THC oil to mix with the peanut butter and melt into the crackers. According to my son, it's lot's easier. Funny story about that, too. When I was talking with the intake coordinator at a local Residential Treatment Center (RTC) about possibly sending my son there, I had to describe what his problems were and what he was currently doing. When I told her about distilling his own hash oil, she'd heard about that. What she [i]hadn't[/i] heard of was the way he was using it, i.e. consuming it sublingually, under his tongue (he learned that little trick from his sublingual vitamin B supplement). To say the least, she was surprised (which was saying something for a woman who's dealt with teen substance abusers for over 15 years). Her comments were "my, what a creative young man you have". [img]:hammer:[/img] She then proceeded to tell me that she couldn't take him on as an inpatient because he was an adolescent, and unless he was found to be a danger to himself or others, they couldn't "lock him in". So they only take adults and adolescents who actively seek rehabilitation, or adolesecnts who are are in crisis. Smoking pot, being a smart-A** to your parents, and being defiant don't count. So they won't take him. Neither will any other inpatient Residential Treatment Center (RTC) for three states around. All that's available is IOP, which he probably won't agree to go to because he doesn't think he has a problem. Ugh. Well, let's see what his therapist comes up with. It might be time for the intervention he said might be necessary, only we don't have the threat of forced inpatient treatment to use as persuasion. Mikey [/QUOTE]
