I don’t see how this could be true after watching the Geezer Boomers doing their “Don’t Touch Me” love fest and line dance for the last week on the boob tube. Those potheads were pretty pissed off. And then they had their Tesla hate fest.

For me...

THC is a Godsend. ..to some of us,....

I suffered debilitating migraines my whole life. A few puffs on a THC vape pen stops them in minutes. When I get ‘auras’. So there is that. And I have personally seen extreme epileptics knock out seizures the same way. (Fair disclosure I use to manufacture extraction equipment)
THC has its legitimate medicinal use. But really. Most people just wanna get high. But my goodness. When you experience the legitimate relief of THC for some serious neurological issues you will be a believer.

Feel free to ask me anything about it.

I don’t use it, but I have heard many with digestive issues or pain due to chronic neuralgic problems, that this helps them to function during the day. I just don’t know, and cannot throw a big, wet blanket over the topic, based only on my speculation. I suspect there is a placebo effect going on for some patients.

While medicinal marijuana / THC can help with some conditions, there’s as much hanky-panky in the “medical marijuana” arena as there is in the “working from home” scheme. Several years ago a licensed dispensary opened up just down the block from me in a leafy residential Chicago neighborhood. On the day of the grand opening the line that formed down the sidewalk was comprised entirely of men between the ages of 25 and 45. While they were a scruffy looking bunch, none of them looked to be disabled or in poor health. They looked instead like typical aging potheads.

I’m currently undergoing chemotherapy for AML Sometimes I get little headaches after an infusion. I rub CBD Sports cream on my head which brings relief from the headaches.

I also have some Gummies that have a THC content that I use occasionally at night. They make me a little sleepy.

I’d much rather use cannabis products instead of prescribed medication if it’s possible.

Another study that instead says just smelling terpenes of weed helps with pain:

I ordered some THC gummies for my 86 yr old husband on hospice with multiple medical conditions including Alzheimer’s. I wanted them mainly to help him sleep through the night. I decided to take one first to see what it felt like. Oh my goodness, I don’t think I could have passed a drunk driving test. A very weird, unpleasant feeling. Decided not to give any to my husband.

My daughter has been able to kick alcohol and hard drugs, but cannot kick marijuana. She said, Don’t believe the lies. It is addictive.

The side effects are a lack of mental clarity, neurosis, premature aging, hair turning white and obesity from a stimulated appetite.

It works to stem the rage of the radical left, who sell it and make millions...

Burn one down for Bernie Sanders !

From my personal experience with chronic lower back pain, I found that pot use increased my awareness of the pain instead of reducing it. While pot use may help some people, it most certainly didn’t help me.

Cannabis taken regularly if anything can lead to several side effects, including cognitive impairment, increased anxiety or depression, and potential addiction. Long-term users may also experience memory issues and decreased motivation.

So I’m not buying this report.
