Heavy smoker. Charged w/ possession of marijuana & paraphenalia. Pls help

[marti1317]

I recently got arrested for possession of marijuana (misdemeanor) and possession of paraphenalia (small pipe).

Both were in my purse when I was out with a friend who I hadn't seen since highschool, and it's a long story but simply put, her drunk sloppy ass got me arrested b/c she collapsed on the floor of a convenience store and cops were on the scene immediately (they'd been called after someone saw her...I wasn't even drunk and was trying to take care of her).

I live in Alabama unfortunately, so here, depending on the amt, marijuana possession is considered a felony. What a joke.

If I had the funds I'd skip town and move out west or to cali...but that's a dream thats not gonna happen.

But back to the point: I love weed more than any other drug. I've been smoking every day beginning with a wake n bake to take away this nauseous feeling i get every morning and feel irritable until I smoke. Then i'd continue to smoke every couple hours throughout the day then smoke heavy at night before bed.

Quick-fix, or any type of fake urine with the heat pack, isn't going to work b/c this place watches you pee.

I've heard of those drinks you take 4 hrs before the drug test and have to pee 4 times b4 going to it. I've heard it worked for some people, not for others.

I have a fast metabolism...I'm 5'6" and weigh 115. Do you guys have any suggestions or advice? I would greatly appreciate any input.

Thanks for reading

thanks for the reply. where can one purchase charcol tablets?
one concern: i'm quite sure that with my drug tests (I've been on probation once before for a DUI i got when i was 20, almost 4 yrs ago) if they find that it's diluted, it counts as a fail. i could be wrong, but i remember hearing that from someone. i hope that's not true

Lots of Green and lazy cops up here in Canada, plenty of room to!

but seriously the harsh laws up there frighten me.

drink so much water that it makes you pee, like 5-6 liters of water a day for a couple days. just plain good for you to!

I used to have that "blah" feeling before I smoked up in the day to, I tend to feel like crap unless I get up and excersize right away or smoke some herb. something to do with how excited my lungs are... if I just chill my breathing gets shallow and I just feel like sleeping 3 hours after I wake up.

I live in birmingham alabama and I know exactly what you are about to go through. I suppose that you are on TASC, right? Don't try to fake the piss test, you won't. I was arrested for posession of cocaine and that is a big fat fucking felony. I suppose you have not had your court date yet? First thing first, go to your drug testing, I didn't because I took opiates and would have failed, bad idea. If you can stay clean do it and report when you are suppose to. Depending on how much you had, unless it was like an ounce, you will most likely receive a misdemeanor for posession and go into the drug court program. GO TO COURT CLEAN THEY WILL DRUG TEST YOU ON YOUR COURT DATE!!!!! If you fail the drug test on your court date you will GO TO JAIL for a few days. The judgees here will not hear your case unless you are clean!!!! It also looks so much better if you are clean during your drug testing now as well, but definately be clean on your court date!!!! As long as you are not on probation for something else you will be elgible for drug court, meaning you will be on TASC or some other drug program for six months to a year. Once you have completed this program usually the charge is dropped from your record. If you fail a drug test during this time you will serve jail time. One night for the first time you fail, a weekend for the second, a week for the third time, and ect. I was worried to death about court, I couldn't sleep or anything. If you keep your nose clean there is no need to worry, trust me I did enough for the both of us, and it was for no reason. You will be placed on unsupervised probation for a year or two and like I said you will have to go to the drug test program. Be nice to your case worker by the way because they determine after your court date how long you have to go to the drug testing program. You will also have to report to the judge every month or two to show how you are progressing. If you are not an addict than you will be fine and it will be over with before you know it. I wish someone on here would have told me this.

I don't understand when you have to take the test or if you have to take it more than once maybe I just can't read right though I'm tired.

If it's a one time thing just drink lots of water. Still no guarantee.

If it's a more than once there's no way you'll be able to cheat if you value passing the test whatsoever. All you can do is not smoke for however long you have to.

you can pick up charcol tablets from from health food stores and pharmacy's here in australia, its probably the same over there.

drinking water is natural.

Ahhhh thanks for the reply. Yeah i live real close to Bham, like an hour away in a small town.

I already had my court date and yea the judge told me about having to do jail time if I fuck up on my probation.

Also, he said he was putting me on TWO YEARS probation (and yeah its TASC). Just thinking about it makes me want to cry.

Also, get a good laywer, if you can afford it. I had a court appointed an he fucked me. If you don't mind my asking, what county do you live in? If you have a previous record that goes into account as well. While all of this is going on be on your best behavior because the smallest screw up is a big deal on your court date. If you don't have a job, get one because they will ask you if you are working and that means a lot as well, supervision wise. But if you have a clean record and I'm sure you are a decent person that got caught up in some bullshit, like me, use common sense and calm down because everything is going to be fine. You will have some court costs including a $1000 drug user fee that will be refunded if and when you complete your drug testing program. Also, the costs can be paid monthly so don't expect having to go to court with like $1500 dollars, they give you a payment plan. I just can't emphasize enough to go to court CLEAN. I was in probation already when I got arrested so I was not elgible for drug court, otherwise, even being a felony I could have gone to drug court and in a year or so it would have been off of my record. Instead I got a felony, I don't have to take drug tests or go to TASC or anyhting like that, but I do have to go once a month to a probation officer and basically say hey, only takes two minutes, seriuosly. But, I do have a felony on my record witch is absolute bullshit, but i never had to go to jail and that is what I was scared of. I could be tested at my Probation Officers so I make sure I'm clean when I go, hasn't happened yet , but just in case. I hope the best of luck and I'm sorry that you or anyone has to go through this for something so simple. If you have anymore questions i am more than glad to help.

- that's true.

I'll look up charcol tablets and see if they're sold around here, I'm open to anything that could possibly keep me from having to quit smoking for two fucking years....god damnit

thanks for the advice. i couldn't afford a lawyer, not even a court-appointed one at this time. and my court date was a few days ago. i wasn't clean for it, but i told my probation officer the truth and when I meet with her next time, I'll be sure to mention that I'm a full-time student and work part-time.

And i live in the US, Alabama to be exact, where depending on the amount, possession of marijuana is a felony. In my case it was a misdemeanor. And i don't have a record (I got a DUI about 4 yrs ago but it was taken off my record as youthful offender).

oh yeah, that drink kept me out of jail. I had taken some OC on Wednesday when my court date was that Friday. I took some detoxify rapid cleanse the moring before court and out of like twelve people only three of didn't go to jail that moring. I was so scared, I knew I was going to fail. the only bas thing about those drinks is that they deplete you creatine levels. I had to take three drug tests that morning because every time mine were too low and the judge said I had to take them until I either failed or got my creatine level up and pass. I passed after drinking a coke on the third try. My lawyer said he had never heard of anything like it. but it worked.

its a true shame you are unfairly being forced into a drug testing program..

however, there are no drug testing questions allowed in CD. closed.
