Glad cannabis is successfully treating your glaucoma!

That’s one thing I don’t understand about FR’s prohibitionists. When I & others report positive outcomes with cannabis prohibitionists are always quick to tell us we’re “fooling” ourselves or “you’re just getting high”—they seem incapable of understanding how for some of us, cannabis is welcome relief after years of misery.

If I ever run across someone who says to me, “I used X to treat my depression/anxiety symptom & it’s working great for me”, I’ll be HAPPY for them regardless of the medicine they used as I am for you now. Peace :)

Since you suffer from depression the prohibitionists think you don’t have an actual illness. They feel depression is something you can turn off and on at will. The relief you have experienced is meaningless and you are just “high” so the results you have experienced deserve to be ridiculed and discredited. They feel justified in personally attacking you.

I have been fighting glaucoma for years. The prohibitionists usually ignore me because glaucoma patients can tangibly prove medical marijuana is extremely effective in treating this disease. They usually don’t attack me because how can they possibly justify that they would prefer I go blind.
