Input: Text: this happened about a week ago, but my mom recently brought it up again and i am just looking for a place to vent my frustrations. i'm a 24 year old asian guy and i've been a fairly frequent weed user since high school. while in college and grad school i upped my usage to everyday. never felt like it dramatically affected my life in a bad way. i still managed to get all a's and after grad school i got a job as a transplant researcher in a hospital (which is where i still am currently). i pretty much only use it at night when i'm bored/winding down for the day, or when i'm chillin with friends. fast-forward to last week, my mom recently had a surgery for glaucoma (roughly a $2000 procedure) and it was not successful. she was given 3 options. 1) she could take a medication everyday for the rest of her life that would inevitably cause central nervous system damage, 2) she could try using medical marijuana, or 3) she could do nothing and eventually will go blind. she opted for the mj option. since it was taking so long for the actual card to arrive after she was cleared i offered her some of my resources. she agreed and we eventually ended up talking about my smoking frequency. when i told her i typically use every other day (which for me is a pretty big cut back since school) she wasn't happy about it at all. she starts telling me that it's sad that i need to feel "high" that frequently to feel happy in my life. basically, all the stuff you don't wanna hear from someone who hasn't experienced it. anyway i drop the topic and we don't discuss it for a while. then yesterday she brings it up again and rants about how she's concerned i'm not going anywhere and that she feels she's failed as a parent because she couldn't stop me from getting into stuff like this. this got me pretty heated because i feel like she didn't feel that way before she knew. i just graduated from grad school last year (i got into this program immediately following undergrad) and got a decent job at a prestigious hospital. my plan right now is once i hit the 1 year mark for working at this job i will either continue on to a phd program or i will enter something that involves a lot of computer based statistical analysis & research (which i consider one of my strengths). basically, my point is i have a plan and i consider myself to be on the right track for life in general. i would say the 2 things that i could be flagged for is 1) technically i still live at home. this is out of convenience rather than necessity because this makes it wayyyy easier to pay back the massive amounts of student loan debt i've accumulated. 2) my job doesn't have amazing pay because this type of research job is mainly for the purposes of moving on to a phd program in the future. since these incidents have occurred my mom has also ceased all marijuana use, so i guess she'd rather go blind than smoke weed. i'm just pretty annoyed with the whole situation, weed doesn't define my life, but at times it does enhance it. i love my mom and i don't want her to go blind (if i have kids someday that would be really sad for me) but i'm having a really difficult time grasping her perspective. i'm considering stopping forever if she just shuts up and takes her meds. it kind of makes me sad that i may not be an ent anymore for something this stupid.

 

**update:** hey guys thought i'd just let you know what ended up happening. so after having a lot more calm conversations with my mom she agreed that going blind willingly was just stupid. she has been smoking everyday now and hasn't complained once. she said she doesn't necessarily agree with the way i go about using herb but as long as i don't stop trying to be the best i can be it doesn't matter. sorry if this isn't some crazy finale to the story but i'm just glad i don't have to stop blizzin and my mom is taking her med. thanks for all the support fellow ents, happy toking!

TIFU by telling my mom I smoke every other day.
