I don’t see legalization beyond this

I didn’t support weed beyond personal or medical cultivation

We already gave methadone clinics in most cities

It’s not free but it’s technically legal

Of course it’s not enough for a serious junkie

All intoxicants are just not interchangeable

Alcohol is more like dope dope

An anesthetic

Pot is more like a psychoactive stimulant that morphs into a depressant

None of it’s harmless

I’ve seen weed trigger panic especially in women

“Pot is more like a psychoactive stimulant that morphs into a depressant”

Evidence to back up this assertion is?

I ask because there are 2 basic strains of cannabis: indica & sativa. Indica is what will put you “in da couch” if you use too much. I use it nightly to help me sleep & wow! I’ve been sleeping very well since I started using cannabis in Feb 2015. Much better than when depression & anxiety ruled my life the previous 25 years.

Sativa is generally uplifting when used in moderation. It keeps my depression away after the day’s work is done.

I’ve yet to feel even remotely depressed after the psychoactive effect of the medicine is over. Not a single time. I use it daily in small doses 2-3 times a day. If what you claim were true, I’d be a sniveling crybaby again.

Granted it’s not for everyone just as pharma meds don’t work for everyone. That said, I sure see a lot of “experts” making claims that just don’t hold up in light of my personal experience as a medicinal cannabis user.
