I have a severe anxiety disorder, why is it considered a sin for me to smoke weed

[Little]

it is what defiles the body smoking harms the body we were not made to smoke the lungs will die so eat it

I can give you an answer, but you won't like it.

Anxiety stems from FEAR. Fear is a negative emotion. Fear, per christianity, comes from the devil. It is not of god.

Trust in God, and let go of your fear. There is nothing truly to be afraid of. What is the worst possible thing that can happen to you? Death. If you are a christian, then you should never fear death. Death is the release of this fleshly body, and the escape of the soul back to God.


I know you don't want to hear this - nor will many others. But, this is true.

If you need to talk about it more - please feel free to speak with me. I will never turn you away, and am always here to help.

From a Christian perspective, partially because it is illegal.

As a non-Christian, I find it creates more anxiety than it relieves. I used to smoke weed every day for years, but I have become much happier since I gave it up.

but not when I take Zoloft? or Valium? All of them are mind altering & they would both be considered Pharmakia? I don't understand. Serious question, I am a Christian.

When I was 15yrs old my shrink even suggested that I smoke it, I had Anorexia, Social Anxiety, depression, & OCD.

It has nothing to do with the drug.

THC is illegal and therefore a sin to break such a law.

By the way the others would be a sin too if you got them without a prescription because that's illegal too.

[NazariteSpirit]

I don't think your smoking marijuana is about "sin". The fact is that smoking marijuana is "illegal".

[monmichka]

It's not a sin. Just a crime.

Because weed ia an illegal drug. the others aren't. We are to obey ceasars law unless it conflicts directly with true wprship. In that case, as it states in the book of Acts, we must obey God as ruler rather than man. The governments are only here because God has allowed them to be in order to provide us with a measure of protection.

Personally I don't smoke weed because it worsens my anxiety.

I think it should be legal and there is nothing wrong with it.

[Tapestry6]

I licked anxiety with prayer and sacrifice. .I refuse to take drugs legal or illegal!
