Dragon Tales: Meet Taj

I started using cannabis late in life when I was around 23. A lot of my friends and coworkers smoked but I never engaged. One day a friend gave me a bite of a fruity pebbles bar and it changed my life. From there, I started taking edibles on the weekends just for fun and realized it made me feel better.

I get upset and angry easily and when I get upset it’s really hard to think rationally and get out of my own head. When I got upset, I’d use cannabis and my thought process would go from “explosive rage” to “calm and rational” instantly. I started making my own edibles infusing butter and oils and also started to realize how much it helped during my period. I have PCOS and some pretty big fibroids that need surgery and cannabis has helped ease the pain associated with cramps, my fibroids as well as my mood swings. It’s been a few years and I’ve incorporated cannabis into my daily life. Using oils, flowers, edibles, and even topicals when necessary.

Currently, I don’t deal with any stigma around my cannabis use because I’m a very private person. However, I would like children in the future. I know it’s possible to still get the benefits of cannabis during pregnancy and even after, but there’s still a lot of stigma around moms who use cannabis.
