End marijuana prohibition and aid the shrinking economy the same as ending alcohol prohibition did in 1933. End the promotion of unsubstantiated social problems and the unsuccessful efforts to control with our prohibition laws. Use this money to rebuild our economy and tax those who wish to profit from marketing of this product.

Poe's The Tell-Tale Heart and Weirdharold's Manic Depressive Illness |
|
|

Posted by: harold -

I have written much about my alcoholic illness, but I have never written much about my manic depressive disorder except to say I have the illness. Even though painful as it may be I am going to make an effort to talk some about this condition that few understand.
The Monday after Thanksgiving 2005, I was in my son’s home and I closed out his web browser and nothing but a picture appeared on the screen. He was at work so I spent the day loafing. I picked up a book of Edgar Allen Poe’s writing. I turned to one of my favorites of his, “The Tell-Tale Heart”. I remember the first time I heard this read to me when I was in the 11th grade. Somehow I knew he was telling more than just an ordinary horror story. As I read this short story all of a sudden I realized Poe was using his pen in his grand style to describe the symptoms of the manic side of manic depression.

Manic Depression: Inner Battle |
|
|
|
Posted by: harold -

|
When I am on the roller coster of manic depression it is not easy to determine where I am. There is no way to say which direction I am going. When I become irritable, it is a very uncomfortable state. I try to control and it causes panic attacks. If I do not control, I offend the most important people in my life and then, more panic attacks. I search for more ways to correct this painful condition and it adds to more irritability. If the direction is downward I will soon enter a state of worthlessness. It will take all the energy I can muster to stop the fall. On the way up there is hope. Being a manic depressive there is never a middle ground. An inner battle is constant.

American Phenomenon
I believe the father of the prodigal son would object to the act of giving unrestrained access of an automobile to a fifteen year old. Remember he was a liberal. I have three adult sons none of which was give unfettered access to the family automobile. It was required they show responsibility for their actions with the car, one was arriving home as scheduled. Ask any one of these sons of mine of their parents actions. You will receive an angry reply from each.
On the other hand I wonder why parents go to barber shops with their children and tell the barber how to cut their hair. A part of parenting is watching a child grow within his own self, conforming, rebelling or both. We as parents must learn spiritually when and how to let go. Also we must not allow our children to inflict their immaturity upon the society as a whole. This can only be accomplished via spiritual principles.

Guns v. Drugs |
|

Being a drug warrior I see many people going to jail for possession of drugs. I believe that we can stop this in a fair and suitable way for all. Since drugs are illegal to possess and guns are a Second Amendment Right to possess, the right thing to do would be to take a bag of pot away from those pot heads and give him a nine millimeter semi-automatic. Tell him to stop messing with that pot and go defend himself. Obey the laws and stop hanging on to illegal substances. He should remember that Charleston Heston will never take away his gun, but any halfway decent cop can take away his drugs.
He can join up with any good redneck and go around the county defending his right to defend himself. Drug are far more dangerous that guns. So stay away from drugs especially pot. I have been told 4 year old children have had their brains blown out while playing with pot. Now if we follow my social agenda just think how much safer we all would be and we would not have to take Charleston Heston’s gun from his “Cold dead hands”. It all sounds so simple to me.

This is a talk I gave to the clients at the Harbor House Treatment Center Tupelo, Mississippi on 01/04/2004. This is a transcription of that recorded talk you may find it a little hard to follow. If you have interest in the subject you will find it fulfilling. I'm going to read the 15th chapter of St. Luke. I'm going to read the first two verses and then I'm going to skip some. I was intending to read all but my eyes are not that good today. I'm having problems with my eyes dilating properly. Everyone should be familiar with the story, even if you've only been to church 3 times. You might find it a little bit different the way I interpret it. This is the story of the prodigal son. The first two verses are the most important.

I took my first drink on March 24 1960, my last on December 22, 1975. When did I become addict? Here is where all popular belief is phony because experience tell me the conditions for addiction were present when I took my first drink. The same with many others I have met. Prohibition is trying to stop an affliction that already exist.
My conversations with others indicate their experience with the first psychoactive drug created some enormous feeling of relief and the only thought was to go for more. The suffering from that episode was agonizing and we were never going to do it again, however the next opportunity we were at it again. This is called addiction.
The best analogy I believe is think as if the addict's brain is like simmering fire, no flame. The addict believes he has put out the fire for a short time by using alcohol or some other psychoactive drug. While, others see it as the fire has burst into flame. The addict does not know the fire is still simmering and all other think the a substance causes the flames. Here lies the falsehood of the prohibition laws. Since, this is the basis for prohibition laws and it does not work. Most all think we must continue out efforts and in comes treatment and all the other "Drug War" industrial complex.
The alcoholic/addict is well aware his behavior does not fit into social standard at times, as does all. Take away the Prohibition Laws and then all are on the same page as the alcoholic/addict then he is not trying to hide from prohibition laws but keep his our behavior in check. While the populace is not trying to keep substances away from the ill they believe to be of value.
Punish people for bad acts and take the away the prohibition laws. Then the Justice System would need not be in the treatment business.

Do Not Define Psychoactive Drug |

Any anti-drug war movement that tries to define psychoactive drug as dangerous are only feeding the beast. The only manner to end these disruptive prohibition laws must do the same as done in 1933 to end alcohol prohibition.

The mind and body seem to be in a position of anxiety. No comfort from any action. Deep breathing helps. A state of mindfulness or awareness is difficult. Living in the moment is hard. When an activity is started, it is forgotten or something else need to be completed. This mind set leads to very little being accomplished and cause for a feeling of uselessness. The fact that I am able to put this to digital form is the accomplishment needed to keep me going, today.

Self Pity |
|
|
|
Posted by: harold -
on Friday, August 22, 2008 - 09:07 PM |
|
I started taking Wellburtin on the 12th of this month for depression. My pdoc thinks I should be on an antidepressant. I started some form of cycling shortly after starting the new meds. First, chronic fatigue, then suppressed anger and by Tuesday afternoon, the 19th, I was in a state of self pity. This is a normal progression for an alcoholic. About 2:30 PM, after going to a noon fellowship meeting downtown, I laid down for a few minutes to stop the fire in my brain. My phone rang and It was Jimmy informing me of Don's strange accident that caused his death.
Here is where my feelings become the most strange I have experienced in my 48 years of my brain disease. At once the self pity disappeared and my thoughts began, how can I acknowledge to his family their grief. I do not know their addresses, phone calls are out of order at this time. As this thought began, the self pity disappeared and a state of usefulness began.
I began to read the obituary, I was not aware of some of his accomplishments. I remember Don as a soft spoken friend of Bill W., who had the ability to carry a message with that soft voice and his silence. Don was also a businessman many would envy. I am sure his family will have blessed memories of Don and he will be in their thoughts forever. Hopefully his death caused by this tragic incident will be replaced with those good memories.
When I was 5-6 years old, I remember my mother was getting dressed up to go somewhere. I did not think it would be very much fun go. As I was complaining I wanted to stay home, she stated emphatically, "Get dressed, my best friend's mother has died and I must be with her."
To my friends of Bill W. I will share this message, sadness and a sense of duty are far better than that terrible spiritual malady of self pity.

Demons vs Characters Defects |
|
|
|
Posted by: harold -
on Monday, August 11, 2008 - 06:48 PM |
|
If I try to use the language spoken two thousand years ago and translated several times, I would say those possessed by demons have a spiritual malady in today's language. Today we describe the demons as pride, greed, lust, anger, gluttony, envy, and sloth. Characters defects only God can remove.
One passage from many years ago:
Mark Ch. 9
- 17. And one of the multitude answered and said , Master, I have brought unto thee my son, which hath a dumb spirit;
- 18. And wheresoever he taketh him, he teareth him: and he foameth , and gnasheth with his teeth, and pineth away : and I spake to thy disciples that they should cast him out ; and they could not.
- 19. He answereth him, and saith , O faithless generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? bring him unto me.
- 20. And they brought him unto him: and when he saw him, straightway the spirit tare him; and he fell on the ground, and wallowed foaming .
- 21. And he asked his father, How long is it ago since this came unto him? And he said , Of a child.
- 22. And ofttimes it hath cast him into the fire, and into the waters, to destroy him: but if thou canst do any thing, have compassion on us, and help us.
From my experience I would say the father is describing some form of spiritual malady in today terms leads to alcoholism/drug addiction. I have heard the stories of mothers, fathers, grandparents, spouses and other loving relatives describe in today's terms the same details as above.
This is the reply:
- 23. Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe , all things are possible to him that believeth .
- 24. And straightway the father of the child cried out , and said with tears, Lord, I believe ; help thou mine unbelief.
Note how the question of faith was directed. Not at the person with the visual demons, but to the father who was concerned about his son. The reply of the father is so true of the faith that he had been taught. (remember the faith of Abraham as he was willing to sacrifice his son as a matter of his faith in God). This man was willing to put his Faith above all. Now the not so visible demons in the father were put aside, the very visible demons in the son could be addressed.
- 25. When Jesus saw that the people came running together , he rebuked the foul spirit, saying unto him, Thou dumb and deaf spirit, I charge thee, come out of him, and enter no more into him.
- 26. And the spirit cried , and rent him sore, and came out of him : and he was as one dead; insomuch that many said , He is dead .
- 27. But Jesus took him by the hand, and lifted him up ; and he arose
This appears to be an instant process, but we know all spiritual matters are a constant struggle. Now comes the big wonder of it all. Jesus' followers had made an effort to bring forth these demons from this lad to no avail and here is the punch line of this story.
- 28. And when he was come into the house, his disciples asked him privately , Why could not we cast him out ?
- 29. And he said unto them, This kind can come forth by nothing, but by prayer and fasting.
How often do we try to destroy the demons in our children without looking at our own. The demons can only be brought forth but by nothing but prayer and fasting. I am saying today's language Love and restraint. Oh, how little we see today as we look outside to solve the problem in our children we believe are caused by a substance and we are willing to give up our own God given powers to remove our own demons.

BERWYN HEIGHTS, Maryland: Mayor Cheye Calvo update 8/10/08
From The Text:
BERWYN HEIGHTS, Maryland: Mayor Cheye Calvo arrived home from work, saw a package addressed to his wife on the front porch, took it inside and put it on a table.
Suddenly, police with guns drawn kicked in the door and stormed in, shooting to death the couple's two dogs and seizing the unopened package.In it were 14.5kg of marijuana. But the drugs evidently did not belong to the couple.
Police say the couple appeared to be innocent victims of a scheme by two men to smuggle millions of dollars worth of marijuana by having it delivered to about a half-dozen unsuspecting recipients.
The two men under arrest include a FedEx deliveryman. Investigators said he would drop off a package outside a home and the other man would come by a short time later and pick it up.
Now federal authorities say they are looking into how local law enforcement handled the July 29 raid. FBI agent Rich Wolf said yesterday the bureau had opened a civil rights investigation into the case.
A furious Mr Calvo said he and his wife, Trinity Tomsic, had asked the Government to investigate.
"Trinity was an innocent victim and random victim," Mr Calvo said outside his two-storey, red-brick house in this middle-class Washington suburb of about 3000 people.
"We were harmed by the very people who took an oath to protect us."
Mr Calvo, 37, insisted the couple's two black Labradors were gentle creatures and said police killed them "for sport", gunning down one of them as it was running away.
All done in an effort to stop the cultivation, transporting, distribution of marijuana. A substance that has been around for 10,000 years where there is no proof of its danger.
It is the laws, stupid, not the drugs causing a violent society.

Police Raid Berwyn Heights Mayor's Home, Kill His 2 Dogs
From the text:
Spokesmen for the Sheriff's Office and Prince George's police expressed regret yesterday that the mayor's dogs were killed. But they defended the way the raid was carried out, saying it was proper for a case involving such a large amount of drugs.
Sgt. Mario Ellis, a Sheriff's Office spokesman, said the deputies who entered Calvo's home "apparently felt threatened" by the dogs.
I say many feel threatened by swat teams. Does the Sheriff really believe these acts,"Ensure domestic tranquility" as our constitution states is his job. Whom are we afraid?

Control Others and Depend Upon Them |
|
|
|
Posted by: harold -
on Sunday, July 27, 2008 - 03:48 PM |
 |
I hear many things around the fellowship I have not experienced, nor would I have wished it had. I remember my parents and later my wife controlled me with the checkbook. This I deeply resented. When my wife handed me the checkbook and told me to take of myself and continued by saying she and our son would take of themselves, a fear came to being I had never felt before. In nature it was, how was I going to care for myself? I knew I could not continue drinking and care for my financial needs. I called an alcohol/drug counselor within one hour, as my wife had suggested. This call started me on a program within the fellowship that I continue today.
The issue of trying to control others continued until my work life ended in 1993 when the disability determination board said I was no longer able to work in a completive work environment. This attempts to control continued within my family and the fellowship. This character defect has often alienated family and fellowship members.
Seeking a Higher Power for spiritual self sufficiency gave me the self sufficiency in needed for living. Sharing my experience, strength, and hope with others suffering alcoholics has been my methodology for living without using alcohol for many years years. My relationship with a Higher Power is unique as my fingerprints and assume other alcoholics are also.
The principle in our fellowship we can choose our own Higher Power and we put all our principles above personalities give me the strength to understand I must surrender my will to give up the bottle and take on my own responsibilities to live a of service.
Any time I insist on controlling others or someone take my responsibilities I am have not asked my Higher Power to relieve me of that human bondage of self and I am still dependent upon other to relieve my alcoholism.
Any time I hear someone giving another instructions or someone asking for specific instructions I suggest the following reading:
(a) That we were alcoholic and could not manage our own lives.
(b) That probably no human power could relieve our alcoholism
(c) That God could and would if he were sought.
Tell me what you did, not what to do. I hope that my character flaws are such that I can do the same.

Demands vs Request |
|
|
|
Posted by: harold -
on Tuesday, July 15, 2008 - 07:20 PM |
|
Page 76 12 X 12 book Seventh Step
The chief activator of our characters defects has been self centered fear- primarily fear that we would lose something we already possessed or we would fail to get something we demanded. Living upon the basis of unsatisfied demands, we were in a state of continual disturbance and frustration. Therefore no peace could be be had unless we could find a way to reduce these demands. The difference between a demand and a simple request is plain to anyone.
The above mentioned spiritual thought is far reaching. When taken in its entirety, it includes all facets of our life. The fear created by the demands can create resentments, our number one offender to a better spiritual life
It can come into play when we are thinking we are doing good. Sometimes we make demands when we should make requests, and other times when we make requests it is none of our business at all. Thus relationships are harmed or very hard to reestablish.

Depression |

Posted by: harold -
on Friday, July 11, 2008 - 12:38 PM |

A few years ago my youngest son made the statement, "Dad comes home with his thoughts all tangled up sometimes". Well the past few days this is happening to me again. The pdoc says it is depression and suggested an anti-depressant . My wife says we are just tired from our eleven day trip. I think I am just getting old.
The most likely situation is all three of us are correct. I fear the depression the most. I prefer not to take the anti-depressants. They have some many side effects. Also they take so long to take affect. Of course, being exhausted is a factor and it to will take a short time to correct. The pdoc and I discussed the factor of not getting old that has never been a solution for my manic depressive disorder (except once).
The part of my depression the most scary is the part my young son diagnosed at a very early age. This limits my activities. The three symptoms of my illness at present are: scattered thoughts, chronic fatigue, and worthlessness.
I will set set forth a plan to deal with each.

- Dr. White lost his senses
- The families of the deceased have lost contact with the grief process, leaving nothing but pain and anguish.
- A law regulating drugs that have a potential for abuse has gain support. A law that should not exist.

Hospice House case in period of 'limbo'
As a former resident of Tupelo, I sit here 2400 miles away with my perfect lens watching a very sad situation. First I see an institution having a high moral motive of aiding the pain of the dying and giving support to their loved ones as the time of being passes to a time of nonbeing.
Apparently a war of politics was brewing somewhere in the higher levels of government and this institution became a target. Eleven families were found that had received service from the center for comforting the dying. These families suffer from a very common spiritual malady. They do not grieve in a way where good memories of their loved one replace the pain of the loss. They are not at fault. The Hospice House was developed to help, but these eleven families show you cannot help everybody.
The charges against these individuals come from the drug prohibition laws. These laws date back to the early 20th century. It is a failed public policy that gets worse. It is the dream of every politician and prosecutor to receive public approval. I detest these laws because they show an ignorance of addiction. They are based on the "potential for abuse"
The onset of these laws gave the medical professional their pen and pad. However the causes of addiction are obscure to all, even the medical professional. The cluelessness of pharmacology as it relates to addiction has all (including doctors) in a state of discomfort because of the 100 year war on drugs.
To me the answer lies: The two accused should demand their Vl Amendment Rights of a speedy and public trial. Bring forth all their accusers, the experts, the doctors, the lawyers, the politicians. Prove to a jury of the accused' peers two things: One, how do you addict someone that has been determined to die within the next six months? Two, the addiction, proven in the first case, will be worse than the dying' pain.
As I began, this is sad. We have a policy scattered over 100 years which intended to keep drugs with the so called "potential for abuse" in the hands of professionals, under legal restrictions, for medical use, but out of the hands of the public. These individuals were indicted via a conglomeration of these laws, created to continue a popular flawed policy.
However these individuals must be defended from the creation of these laws: "potential for abuse" which does not exist. This is like indicting a 25 year old man for statuary rape for having sex with a willing 25 years old woman. The crime did not happen no matter what daddy said.

New Criminal Record: 7.2 Million
Nation's Justice System Strains to Keep Pace With Convictions
From WoPo
Tim Lynch, director of the criminal justice project for the libertarian Cato Institute, called the numbers "scandalous" and said states have resorted to "tinkering" to solve prison overcrowding.
"I think these numbers demonstrate that we've lost our way," Lynch said. "We've lost our way when our laws require such a massive scale of incarceration."
Lynch and others said the drug war is destroying American inner cities almost as much as the drug trade. "When you lock up a bank robber, a child molester or a mugger, you're removing a career offender from the street.
"When you lock up a drug dealer, he is immediately replaced," Lynch said. "We tried this with alcohol during Prohibition and it didn't work. We're not reaching the same conclusion with the drug war. It's slowly sinking in, but it will take politicians some time to turn this around."
Amen

Short Story
I seriously doubt that you can find a person that has personally had more conversations with different alcoholics/drug addicts about the subject of addiction than Weirdharold. This does not make me an expert or do I have any more knowledge of this subject than anyone else. However it does give me a different perspective on what might aid the suffering, simply put, allowing the person to use the substance, but holding him accountable for disturbing the peace of others.
This methodology gives honest relationships between the addict and the public. It focuses on disruptive behavior, not on the substance the addict finds misdirected relief.
Of the thousands of alcoholics that I have discussed our malady, none believed they could stop drinking without some form of spiritual aid. Many , many of these the people have gone back to drinking because the can rationalize (or convince themselves) a drink will be okay. This thought continues until the alcoholic develops honest relationships with others.
However Nancy Reagan says,”Just say no”, then convinces our legislators to spend 100s of billion of dollars to stop drugs from being sold, and to education people how not to be alcoholics and drug addicts. I bet if we really try we can teach people how not to be diabetic, or not to suffer from ALS, Alzheimer, and bipolar. I bet it will work just like the Drug War and just say no, such a sweet saying. It is almost as nice as saying do not go near the restroom when you have the green apple quick step.

This is not the way to sell drugs
Weirdharold’s Method for Selling Drugs
A taxpaying company would submit to the Federal Drug Administration information on a product that would be classed as one of the following three:
1. Central Nervous System Depressant
2 . Stimulant
3. Hallucinogens
The producers would provide information to the FDA as to the effects on an adult male & female. This information would include shot term effects on the physic, the progressive use, and the long term effect on brain and body. The FDA would ascertain the information and permit or reject the sale of the product. The FDA roll is only to ascertain the truthfulness for the producer not to insure safety of the product. The capitalist economy will determine what is sold.
After the product is approved for sale then the Treasury Department will handle the tax and labeling issues as it does alcohol and tobacco.
At the the point of sale to the consumer, the sale person would give the costumer would be informed of the findings of the effect of the product and he would sign document saying same.
The costumer signs & swears to the following:
1. Will not resale
2. Will not allow to fall into hand of anyone 21 years
3. Will not operate machinery while using products
We now have a product our government guarantees that a producer is selling a product that is what they say it is, only to adults.

The more spiritual we are the easier it is to admit our powerlessness and the more powerless we become the easier it is to broaden our spiritual life.

Methodology For Treating Alcoholics
1. Avoid scorn and ridicule.
2. Respect the fact that alcoholism is a physical, mental, and spiritual disease with many complexities.
3. Never allow yourself to be ashamed of the alcoholic’s behavior.
4 Never assume the alcoholic’s responsibilities.
5. Never cover up the alcoholic’s misbehavior.
6. Love one another.
If this fails double up on #6.

An alcoholic is a person who has a distorted perspective of the value alcohol has for him/her. This distortion is caused by some unknown disorder. This disorder may have existed before the onset of alcohol use.
