Growing Cannabis
The next generation will look back at us and think: "Wtf was going on back then?? Cannabis was illegal, but useless tobacco and alcohol was legal, even doctors handed out morfin like it was good for you??"
Hope they can just laugh about it one day.

My doctor told me " I know you cant right now because of your job but when you retire you should try marijuana . I think you could get off half your meds " I told her " Well you are the doctor " Where I live marijuana is totally against the law even medically but my neighbor sells it and the state next to us it is legal even recreationally .

I'm in a situation where I have been taking psychiatric medicine specifically haldol I live in the state of CALIFORNIA and I purchased a CBD sleeping drop which has a smaller THC level and also CBN which I was told helps with sleep Doctor David is so right about how we as patients are seeking control it could be hard when you get pain for your medicine when your going through panic attack about your overall health it can just add more pain. I decided to go on my own hunch to using the marijuana CBD drops not necessarily paying attention to my mental health doctor because after 6 years of taking shots I need to know I have control for the very least this is my physical health that I'm questioning. I heard recently in another marijuana video here on YouTube that it could cause harm to use this plant while on medication by anyway I'm assuming why with reasoning I'm taking caution to take when in severe pain not just when I get a headache.For this reason is why I purchased at a dispensaries the sleep aid of CBD THC CBN I believe by getting more sleep will help with my overall pain using CBD drops. I like to stay busy in my day staying in movement and I can neglect slowing down which I feel is a build up on my head and trying to take time to re-energize with sleep by just taking naps can start a headache. I can get sleep through the night with the rare pain of my breathing. So CBD drop are my best bet and I sure to take precaution using so…only when my pain is unable to bear.
My wife has recently been diagnosed with stage 3B cervical cancer. She has to deal with a lot of pain. She had just received her medical marijuana card, and her marijuana BY FAR, helps the most with her pain, and makes her eat after her chemo. We’re so thankful for the opportunity for her to use it

Thank you for not just shutting her down and being open enough to investigate
Who cares if you can't OD, people are dangerous when stoned. Here's just one example https://www.msn.com/en-au/news/australia/coroner-reveals-lead-up-to-frenzied-stabbing-of-british-backers-mia-ayliffe-chung-and-tom-jackson/ar-BB16c0WX?ocid=spartan-dhp-feeds . Stop pretending it's not a psychotic inducer.
You need to know more about the risks of medical marijuana???? How are you going to learn more about the risk on something that doesn't have risk???
Very thoughtful. I have been using med cannabis for Crohn's and I am much younger. I first acquired Crohn's disease when I was a ten year old child. Now seven years later after little gelp from the mainstream medical community, I have found something that seems to demonstrate actual evidence that something is different like ymprovement of my own situation. I am not totally out of the woods, but at least I can see the pastures agead! In my case the pain has ceased, same with nausea, fatigue, and being homebound and virtually married to a toilet! Now I do still have diarrhoea but from on average 7 to 8 times a full 24 hour day, to now about from 3 to 4 times in a 24 hour day. I can even sleep better with THCA (tetrahydrocannabinolacid). Now I try to tell through word of mouth the positive effects of a plant that has been used for medicine at least 5'000 years!
Alcohol is legal and kills millions. Weed? HELPS PEOPLE AND IS ILLEGAL?!?!?

I've yet to hear a doctor say that smoking high-grade marijuana in public or in the home can lead to involuntary intoxication of minors. Filter less marijuana also increases your chance of developing lung cancer or having a heart attack. Monsters like this are profiteering off the general ignorance of the community. I agree medical marijuana is medicine. However, CBD is not a safe alternative to THC, nor is CBD part of an approved addiction rehabilitation program similar to methadone. In addition, if these drug users are putting FSC chemicals on the smokable marijuana product it will likely cause nausea or vomiting if consumed. The "crystals" from marijuana can also aggravate people's pollen allergies. Furthermore, it is unknown if people can suffer from a general allergic reaction to Marinol or other marijuana based medicine.
I have a recurrent brain tumor which has been surgically removed twice, and, unfortunately, after 30+ neurosurgeries, and other treatments, it's regrown. I have loads of chronic pains, mostly headaches, and occasionally vomiting. I am fortunate enough to get the same relief from severe chronic pain before, during, and after the headaches, and vomiting as I do from the opioids/opiates without serious side effects, or especially, the addicting nature of the opioid/opiates. Finally, I feel so much better than how I felt when I was on the heavier meds. having these meds professionally, and responsibly managed, and dispensed to the qualifying public. I understand that people are reasonably, hesitant about smoking marijuana, but, there are several other effective ways of administering the active ingredients other than smoking.
Love this man. He’s absolutely right to try to bring Focus back to patients. ❤️🤝
He said its baked in. He trynna be slick.
Its a simple fix and that is to have (our) US Congress to suspend an eliminate, funding and its authority for these (2) two things #1 the CSA which is called the (Controlled Substance Act I, II, III, IV) where #cannabis aka.marijuana is listed as a schedule I drug. ie. along with heroin and cocaine. "Lets do this and … Once they are abolished. aka. #2 also banned or eliminated, also to include the #NIDA funding from and through the US Congress the #NIDA stands for the 'National Institute for Drug Abuse its the elusive arm of the DEA and all those who want #cannabis aka.marijuana to remain illegal or under federal control… Also why does the US Government have a US Patent on Cannabis? DYK? kind regards thanks for all you do!
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Another doctor who doesn't know how dangerous marijuana is. Why doesn't he visit the emergency rooms where people are showing up fighting for their lives every day because of the effects of marijuana ??? If something in marijuana helps people fine. Take it out of marijuana and give it to them. But do not give it to them with marijuana because of all the poisons in it especially THC.
