User Reviews for cannabis

When my pain became disabling, I lived in a rube state and had to use narcotics prescribed by my pain doctor. The side effects nearly destroyed my marriage. After beginning MJ therapy I was able to get rid of the narcotics and a volume of medications to deal with the side effects. My pain is controlled and my drug list is cut in half. now I live in a progressive state that legalized both rec and medical use. Open the floodgates y'all, this is NOT anything like a schedule 1 drug-except for the rubes.Read More Read Less

Marijuana helps me with my bipolar disorder and ADD, I have recently started using it in a medicinal fashion and have noticed that consistent dosage is key (same with any medication). I have found more solace and less anger in my mind when taking it. Typically my bipolar disorder expresses itself in me with intense irritability, anxiety, and anger. So for me this is a no brainer. The best pharmaceutical based medication I've taken is Lamictal which is a mood stabilizer, however the affects are not subtle. It completely wears off about every 3 hours, so I would be fine one minute and then mean the next. It was a roller coaster. It is a shame marijuana is illegal, as it should not be. It truly is a great medicine with boundless uses.Read More Read Less

this saved my husbands life...24 years ago my husband was given 3-6 months to live due to lung cancer,I threw away all his drugs that made him a zombie and started him on this treatment..yes it was still illegal.. but when he could keep down food for the first time in months and the pain was much less, he was hungry for the first time in months, he started to put on weight and felt good...Yes I did end up loosing him to the lung cancer..BUT not for 24 years after he was diagnosed ...so why is this not legal?????Read More Read Less

It's hard to get where I'm at but when I can then it's great for my pain from gout. Prescription pain killers don't help, just make me drousy if not sometimes sick and doesn't dull the pain completely. I'm just glad to be able to be free of the pain.

I have found a tincture made from this herb is VERY helpful for MS spacticity and sleep disruption. The tincture give no "head high" but relieves spasms greatly and improves sleep quality without leaving me groggy in the Morning. Also, used as a topically applied salve, it stops nerve pain almost immediately. I can make both easily and neither application alters my consciousness, although the tincture makes me sleepy, so I only use that at night.

I felt great with dealing with depression i thank obama for legalizing the good good here in mexico.

I have an aggressive form of arthritis and began using a topical oil high in cannibinoids (so that I can function at work) and found great relief, my pain is down!

It's legal in my state :-) I started for fun, but noticed my back pain had gone, and remains gone for a day or two afterward. As far as weight loss...nope. I've gained....munchies and all...

My experience with first time THC consumption in brownies (home made): Friday 2-3 pm: ate 1 brownie square, plus trimmings and crumbs estimated at ½ square in volume, for a total of 1½ squares. Friday 6-9 pm: distinct sensation of impaired balance and sleepiness, loss of short time memory and thought processes, Fri after 9 pm: occasional recovery of short time memory Fri night: sleep was better than usual through 5 a.m., then no more sleep. no apparent discomfort from back or hip joint pain. Saturday: Early intestinal discomfort, bowel movement before breakfast, more intestinal discomfort throughout day. Sunday: Early intestinal discomfort, bowel movement before breakfast, twice again after breakfast. Eye lids still a bit heavy. Read More Read Less

Have been using a cannibis derivative, (RSO) to treat pain, hypertension, post Lyme disease syndrome, spastic colitis, insomnia and more. I am no longer taking any pharmaceuticals. Get all the relief and feeling of well being from cannibis. I feel 10 years younger. Anxiety and stress levels are decreased to little or none. Best medicine ever!

Medical cannabis has been very helpful in dealing with chronic low back pain. Helps to stop muscle spasms and greatly improves my mood. I have my state-issued patient card and often go by the dispensary. It is easier for me to get than opioid medications.

I threw my back out at age 15.....since then smoking pot has helped me with the pain and spasm immensely......I simply don't have spasms any more. it has helped the pain in my wrists, and fibromyalgia I developed from painting celings every day for 7 years. I believe Cannabidiol is the best cannabinoid for public consideration, as it is non-psycho-tropic(it doesn't get you high) ......my brother in law is effectively treating his prostate cancer with HIGH CBD cannabis oil. my landlord used cannabis oil topically to arrest a carcinoma spot. ....and my neighbors dad is using cannabis oil(always orally of course) to effectively control his diabetes. supposedly it cures MS, alzheimers, epilepsy, aids, hep c, ect ect...everything!!! now I understand why it is so prohibited. big pharma would lose their shirts if you could grow a cure to Anything in your yard.. synthetic pharmacopeia has its limits(obviously) and cause liver damage. while cannabis has never killed anyone! ...in fact, prior to prohibition(1937) there existed 280 companies making over 2000 cannabis based medications!! says a lot doesn't it?Read More Read Less

when first starting the treatment i was nervous about what might happen but i can say after using it for a long time i am not addicted and it boosts my confidence and makes me overall better and it has helped me so much and i would suggest anyone take it who has been going through mental issues who cant clear their head and need an escape.

The only thing that I've found that works on my fibromyalgia. Illegal in my state, which makes "ease of use" pretty difficult, but worth the trouble. I'd rather go to jail than deal with the pain.

Allows me to eat enough to heal wounds, deal with pain and even sleep some what! !!!!!! I would really love myself if I had cheaper axcess.

I was diagnosed with Neuropathy and Fibromyalgia a while ago(chronic nerve pain). I was on pain pills before and had some very bad experiences with them. I've educated myself on Medical Marijuana and started to treat my health issues with it. It relaxes my nerves and stops my pain without having all of the side affects of pain pills!! I'm living a very functional and happy life now!!

Unfortunately, this is not something I can take at work. When I get home, or anytime I'm in extreme pain, this helps take the edge off the pain. It's the best alternative to opiates I've been able to find. Doesn't take the pain away completely, but keeps me from wanting to rip my hands or feet off.

i have used marijuana to combat depression and to deal with my dissability

THC and Dopamine calm my system down. Allow me to be in the present and experience oneness.
