(and she WILL find out) She is going to be pissed! No two ways about it! So get your arguments and research ready in advance.

More advice- Don't let your grades fall if you are returning to college. This will be an important argument for you. "Mom, look at my grades- did they go down?" (Hopefully, they will go up as I have observed happen with other ADD kids in the past.) This shoots down the big "amotivational syndrome" myth! If you need study tips- ask.

You need to be able to counter every myth she has had put in her head! Hormones, IQ, amotivation syndrome, cancer (boy! what a whopper THAT ONE is!), schizophrenia,...the whole 9 yards!

Your sleep patterns should level out. Keep a log. You'll need to prove to Mom that cannabis is helping you.

One big thing- you have to remain absolutely calm when you talk with her! (Dang, I know how hard that's going to be- I work with kids with ADD and other disabilities.) It should be two adults discussing a course of medical treatment- but she will likely be rather emotional, so it will be up to you to set the tone of the discussion! Remaining calm adds weight to your side. :thumbsup: (I'm a psych major- sorry)

And who knows- maybe she'll turn out to be an "old hippie in disguise" :hippy: and all this hassle will be a "tempest in a teapot"!

Yep...Granny's stoned again (muffins, pipes and a vape or two :hippy and rapping away! LOL Congrats on getting legal. OK that's all for now!
