Having been a pot smoker in the past, I think I would prefer to stick with the illegal stuff. Who finds these drugs anyway? Do hippies go into the forests of Costa Rica with a bong and just pick, pack, and fire it up to see if it gets them high?Do you happen to have any info on the smoking of Melissa (Lemon Balm)? We order Melissa Essential Oil which is "an investment," but works like a charm for vertigo and angst, etc., and we also have tons of Lemon Balm growing naturally (it's downright invasive almost) in our yard, and I thought we could put it to good use, as long as it wasn't detrimental in any way (other than the obvious smoke-in-the-lungs). I could only find one article online about it, and it mentioned it was legal to smoke, but that it would be harsh on the throat, and should be mixed.
I suffer from vertigo and my physician told me (off the record) that brewing lemon balm in tea would help with certain episodes. I’ve not used it myself, but I’ve heard the same that you have.
