OldHippie, as he’s known on Reddit, is a father of two boys and thankfully living in California where all this kind of thing is legal. He started smoking marijuana in 1967 in high school, experimented with mind-expanding drugs of all kinds, and then straightened out 15 or so years later. After being diagnosed with depression in 2000, he lost his job and most of the following decade to prescription medications (such as antidepressants) which sapped his energy and will. Finally, a chance conversation with a friend led to a doctor’s recommendation for medical marijuana (MMJ). The rest is cannabis history.

Old Hippie's only link with the real world is a 420 MHz radio. He blogs on BeyondChronic.com, has written for numerous other websites, and vapes on Sour Diesel.
