Keep it simple is what works for me - this site is clear, concise, and minimizes the metaphysical mumbo jumbo

I live in military base housing, and am mentally interesting. Probably not a good idea 
I would think that would be better... no local cops going to be busting ya on a military base and since you're not in the military the MPs couldn't bother ya either, I'd think... and as for the mental issues, it might help

My husband gets in trouble if it's in the house, basically because he knew about it (and even if he didnt, they're not likely to believe that) and didnt turn it (and me) over to the police. Theoretically, if i wanted to i could go to a friend's house and smoke there, as long as i didnt bring any back with me.
I've often wondered if it would help my mental issues, i smoked a couple of times and ate a funny brownie (actually it was a funny scoop of Ben 'n' Jerrys, but the outcome is the same) once and i found that although it was great when i was high, the paranoia when i came down was awful, given that one of my major symptoms is paranoia. It just made it that much worse.
EDIT: Cheers Kanga, i'll take a look at that

I always have to meditate after talking to you.
putting yourself into a sub-trance state is pretty easy. while laying or sitting relaxed, reclined is best for me, just start relaxing your muscles starting in your toes, and slowly working your way up your body, while breathing slowly and deeply in through the nose, out through the mouth.
Enya or Tangerine Dream will help, I especially like the Optical Race album.
I've always been taught to start at your head and work down with progressive muscle relaxation techniques. It also helps to tighten each muscle first, then relax to feel the difference between any " baseline" tension you may be carrying.

it probably doesn't matter where you start, as long as you pick a spot and go with it, and get fully relaxed.

Starting out, what worked the best for me was counting breaths.

I practice holistic breathing exercises. Like suntzukali said, I breathe in through the nose, and out through the mouth. I concentrate on using different muscles in different areas to control my breathing, like upper chest, middle abdomen (mostly diaphragm), and lower abdomen (way down right about the pelvis). It's really hard to isolate the muscles, but it can be done with practice and the results are like a natural high.

How does the local stuff compare to the stuff you are used to back east?
Awesome 
It is much more energetic for sure. Doesn't make me all droopy and take weed naps all day and stuff
