How to Apply for Disability Benefits with Drug Addiction Note carefully where it says that if drugs cause your disability, NO MONEY. Might there be some unscrupulous doctors or lawyer who will misinform the government, sure. "It is not possible at this point in time to receive Social Security Disability benefits based solely on Drug Addiction. The Social Security Administration (SSA) will not grant disability benefits to people with disabilities that have been caused or worsened by addiction. If Drug Addiction is deemed immaterial to your disability, it is possible that the SSA will grant your disability claim. If, however, the SSA finds that your addiction materially affects your disability, it will not grant your application for disability benefits." The correct information if I am reading regulations correctly is that if an addiction is the cause of your illness and stopping the use of the substance would make you no longer disabled then NO MONEY, however if you remain disabled even if off drugs then you are covered. An alcoholic who drunk crashes her car and becomes paraplegic is still eligible even though the addiction caused the disability, getting sober won't make her walk again. Code of Federal Regulations § 416.935 Quote:

I smell that at Churchill Rec center while playing pickle ball. I've been skunked more than once on those courts, too.

We have been down this road so many times concerning marijuana that it is just a waste of time because stoners will always be stoners and stoners like all addicts can't or won't admit the truth.
What I find sad is that profiteers are succeeding in their pitch to legalize marijuana. It is just immoral and irresponsible for people readily agree to a drug that offers no benefit to the masses but can and does extreme harm . Ican't imagine a parent going along with their kids smoking pot Perhaps i am the only person in the world who hasn't smoked it. Heck I couldn't recognize the so call skunk smell people address here. I didn't do drugs for the same reason I stopped smoking cigarettes in 1973 for my health and that of my family and neighbors and to set good example for my children. I have far to much respect for myself and my body to fill it with junk |

Sharing
I thought I would share an experience from back in the 80's. There is a town which is quite a bit north of San Francisco and it is Guerneville. At the time it was and maybe still is a leader in marijuana both in growth and usage. Today probably usage as others have taken over growth. The whole town was a pot center. When the California authorities put up a sign on the main highway as to turn to go into Guerneville the citizens would tear it down as fast as it was put up. At Thanksgiving they had a very large warehouse and held an open dinner for all who wanted to attend. The whole town was "high". I went into a Bakery to buy a roll and coffee. The owner told me to go ahead and take what I wanted and welcome to his town. Of course there was no charge. All actually seemed high and were happy.Being a leading marijuana center in California is really saying something. It would be interesting where are those same people today? Most in those days would not know that Guerneville was there as there were no road signs telling it's location. I continue to remain strongly against pot but still remember the wild town that smelled of pot and was not tied to charging for products.

You have an honest right to your opinion, thanks. Your money is where your mouth is, as they say.

IMHO pot is not nearly as big of a problem as the booze. Both of my folks died indirectly from the drinking although the death certificate didn't say so. Recent news stated that 83% of Americans favored legalization of MJ. When I asked a classmate of mine from the class of '65 if he still smoked pot, he said he gave it up when it got over $10 a bag. Alcohol on the other hand has basically remained the same cost. When I quit 18 years ago a 1.5 liter of cheap vodka cost the same as it does today.....

I've never smelled pot that burns and smells like skunk. New one on me. Just the regular grade.

Some people don't like to be around people who don't drink.
Some of my treasured, long time friends, get a little annoying after having tee many martoonies.

It's called skunk weed and you have to drink some tomato juice as a chaser.
