Berkeley Patients Groups - Review of a Book Review

Berkeley Patients Groups Review of a Book Review Berkeley Patients Group Cannabis & Dispensary

• "Cannabis Delivery in Berkeley, California" is the latest in a series of articles by Oakland resident Michael Collins about his lifelong battle with cannabis addiction. "Cannabis Delivery in Berkeley, California" tells the story of a young man who became addicted to cocaine and cannabis at an early age, only to suffer severely as a result. Eventually, he went into rehab, but relapsed and now must fight off an ever-mounting list of physical, psychological, and social problems caused by his drug addiction.

• "Cannabis Delivery in Berkeley, California" chronicles the various attempts made by several people to quit cannabis, each one doomed by failure. Michael Collins finally got his life on the right track, but his story is not the complete tale. Heather has become a leading marijuana opponent, fighting not only the cannabis plant but also the entire adult marijuana industry, which continue to thrive in defiance of federal law. She has galvanized local cannabis grassroots efforts and gathered hundreds of people to join her locally and nationally in events such as the march on Washington, her latest book, and her book tour.

• As described in "Cannabis Delivery in Berkeley, California", Michael Collins began using cocaine and cannabis when he was just 18 years old and continued to use them well into adulthood. As his personal problems mounted, he began to develop physical disabilities and dropped out of school. When he moved to Berkeley, California, he was quickly surrounded by other weed smokers and had no friends nearby.

Eventually, his wife left him and they moved in together to raise a child. His personal life was consumed by his struggle with drugs and his work never got any better.

• The author provides a moving portrait of someone facing the crisis of addiction, while providing an insider's look at the complicated and often mysterious world of marijuana and addiction treatment. He exposes the often misleading stereotypes that cloud the issue and offers sound advice for family members who are dealing with a loved one struggling with cannabis addiction. Michael Collins is not a victim, but rather a victim of poor information and marijuana culture that have stigmatized and discriminated against him. The book makes a strong case for treating patients with a comprehensive addiction treatment program based on scientific evidence about the harmful nature of cannabis. In fact, his book is much more about the harms caused by cannabis than it is about the medical benefits.

• If you have a loved one struggling with cannabis addiction, this is a must read. You will hear some personal stories from the author and others that are equally important, but the focus will be on the evidence about how cannabis addiction affects our brains. The authors make a very compelling case that the harms caused by cannabis are more than just about physical dependency. Addiction to cannabis goes beyond mere physical dependence.

• This book is highly recommended to anyone considering starting a private treatment program for a loved one suffering from addiction. It's also highly recommended to anyone who is considering a complete change in their lifestyle. People in recovery have been known to go on to lead productive lives, even if they were once addicted to something else. The support of other people in a Berkeley Patients Group is one of the most important parts of recovery. The belief that everyone has something good to contribute makes a Berkeley Patients Group more successful than many others.

• Michael Collins has managed to weave an excellent story into his book, using his own personal experience. A self-help book, "Cannabis: A Natural History", describes the history and research behind cannabis, its effects on human behavior, and why we need a comprehensive addiction treatment program for cannabis users. The book review on this site caught me by its description of the book, "A Natural History of the cannabiscade: A Secular Pilgrimage." This description not only caught my attention, but also made me want to read the entire book!

• This is a book review that I would definitely recommend to anyone who may be considering an addiction to Berkeley Marijuana Treatment Programs. It is written in an engaging style that makes you want to read it all the way through. The principles of cognitive-behavioral therapy can benefit everyone, no matter what substance they are addicted to.
