I can see the logic behind it – I know Mary-Jane is not as hard as heroin- so I would see it as an improvement. I know it sounds dumb but it makes sense to me.
then the person can gradually reduce the use of marijuana until they are completely drug free- Marijuana is not as difficult to quit as heroin.
