Opiate addiction recovery meetings @ any dispensaries???

[lampost]

OK, pretty self-explanatory....

I remember seeing some ads for these when I first started hitting dispensaries. Anyway, if anyone is clued into a good group or shop that has meetings let me know....

Do 12-steps work for Buddhists:wtf:

sorry I can't answer your question, but I think there's some interesting movement in this area with regards to cannabis. A friend went through opiate recovery recently, and they were fine with his cannabis use - they were concerned only with opiates and alcohol.

It was a check-yourself-in sorta place, not just meetings. I believe he's been on the good road for six months now. just smoken.

best of luck to you!

couple of nice books written specifically for doing 12 steps from a Buddhist practice perspective I read and liked some years back. Googling the two gets you there and elsewhere. Personally, I found my sitting practice in quiet made all the yak yak yak in meetings all the more obviously counter-productive for me ...

i tend to do things on my own. but a little support now and then couldn't hurt.

I may be totally wrong about this, but I thought the new legislation prohibited dispensaries from being within 1000 feet of any sort of addiction recovery program meeting spaces.

Good luck though:thumbsup:

wouldn't that beat all.

If 1284 makes it such that it would be illegal for a dispensary to host an addiction meeting...

I just have to laugh. how very fucken sad.
