When I Say I'm Fine
This is the story of Rick Jacobs
Rick lives in Virginia where he owns his own home-inspecting company. After getting his heart broken in high school, Rick turned to marijuana to cope until he began seeing a woman who hated the drug and asked him to quit. After he quit, he began experiencing pains that he discovered was fibromyalgia that his pot smoking had helped him with and he hadn’t even known it. Dealing with the stigma of having an “invisible” illness, Rick searched for a solution to his pain and found acupuncturing. He still experiences pain, but it has dulled since he found a legal solution. He spends his days with his loving wife of 10 years and their three rescue dogs. Rick is an avid dog lover. He donates regularly to his local SPCA where every year he and his wife sponsor a homeless dog in need. He is extremely close with his parents and attends regular family outings. Rick continues to be a strong advocate for medical marijuana, which was just passed in Virginia last year, but is not yet available to fibromyalgia patients.
