Techniques:combat Paranoia

Hello friends my question is fairly straightford: Due to the gray area of growing marijuana and for those that are operating in the black area, if you have any real practical advise in regards to maintaing a healthy mind while being involved in our favorite past time, i would like to here it.

notes: i know i know, a little paranoia is good and " if its medical you should be ok" "if its personal you should be ok" ... i realise all these things people, i just want to hear how other people involved in this hobby/buisness (w/e you you wanna call it) maintain their minds

Make sure you don't smoke any herb.. it can really enhance the paranoia..... I see helicopters, Electric company empoyees... vans with dark windows... Just gotta tell yourself that shit would have been there if I were growing or not!
