  1. I TRIED SMOKING ALL DAY EVERY DAY AND I COULD NOT GET PSYCHEDELIC HIGH!! It was freshly cut and put in a jar. I tried different kinds and still I do not get high BUT it fixed everything else wrong with my body including loss of pain. I have painful arthritis and gastrointestinal issues. If I take one gummy then my medical ailments are non-existent. I think the psychiatric meds are more powerful than THC so I get the CBD experience and thatā€™s fantastic but I canā€™t get high. I have such a comfy sleep and my bodily functions all work with one gummy or I can get capsules 30 per bottle and take one per day and my life is šŸ’Æ improved.

  2. With the gummies, if I take it regularly (one or two per day) then I donā€™t need ALL the pills the VA Hospital is giving me. So that would make a ā€œhitā€ to big pharma and that is why legalization is stallingā€¦. Sometimes I think itā€™s better to get away from the mediocre VA Hospitals and government it alone with my gummies and I will be fine. The gummies fix my bad gastrointestinal problem. Iā€™m not in a wheelchair so I do not want a colostomy bag. I just saw that on here. Cannibis fixes me head to toe. The many pills the VA gives me is processed thru the liver (like alcohol) and therefore it is very bad for my liver taking so many pills every day. Itā€™s probably why I have chronic constipation and slow gastrointestinal issues and IBS. I donā€™t even need Miralax (not gritty and no flavor. Put it in water and you donā€™t even notice it!! anymore and I donā€™t need to push so hard like when you push to have a baby delivered.

  3. I use cannabis for my asthma and arthritis pain. It works better for my asthma than the steroids did and does much less damage. Same goes for the arthritis. I took Meloxicam for a bit but all it did was make me loopy and forget that I was in pain. But once the loopy ness wore off, the pain was right back. I just recently had a hysterectomy this past Thursday. So I havenā€™t been able to use the cannabis. So Iā€™ve had to rely on steam from the shower.

  4. Rick Simpson sure helped stop my tremors and intractable pain. Finally gained weight with the oromandibular dystonia, cervical to. Helps lower my stress level and anxiety. I can actually get out more function more after losing functional quality of life from a prescription medication.

  5. Sadly my journey has come to the end. UT Southwestern in Dallas has diagnosed me. It's what I've always known. Now to get my specialists to get on board with treatment. I'm not happy about going back on heavy duty meds. Being a SCI incomplete is an absolute nightmare. I was left with flexor spasms.

  6. If i want to feel relaxed, i'll drink some wine. There's no paranoia with alcohol. Marijuana is such an oddball drug to me. It does cause relaxation and euphoria, but it also causes anxiety, paranoia, and a pounding heart.Also, Im not so sure the cardiac effects from thc are benign for older people. Hard pass for me.

  7. After a stroke in 2016 i was on lorazepam for anxiety. I guess i never really realized what it eas doing to me as it was started right after the stroke and my brain and head were different. I took 1.mg twice a day along with my other meds as a routine. Well one day, for some unknown reason my doctor abruptly stopped writing the script. MAY GOD HAVE MERCY, I THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO DIE. I had NO IDEA that what i had been taking for three years could have such a hold me šŸ˜¢ it was horrible šŸ¤¬ if it wasn't for THC gummies and marijuana, i think that detox literally would have killed me. Thank you for this information ā¤

  8. My issue, and it seems to be rare, is it affects me differently nearly every time I take it. I never know how I will respond. I can take a hit from a leaf that I know everything about, from a 100% reliable source and have anxiety, relaxed feeling, or fall asleep.

  9. Doctors are supposed to know that Metformin is a known teratogen especially for unborn babies. My daughter was prescribed this for PCOS and went through several prescribers, none of them mentioned this. She is right in the middle of childbearing years. Fortunately she found this information and did not become pregnant during that time!

  10. THC is 100% an anxiogenic for me. So I microdose and it turns out the anxiogenic tendency serves as a happy mood boost for me and gives me a burst of energy thatā€™s incredibly enjoyable. Microdosing is the best idea for anyone thatā€™s anxiety prone
