I get mine locally, and order CBD online, but yet to feel any relief.

Maybe there's a time when parts that ache are to far gone?...

I prefer opium over everything else. Great pain/stress reliever if taken in small quantities.

On October 17, 2018, Cannabis will be legal in Canada, both for medical and recreational use. As we speak, there are dispensaries setting up.. now the red tape begins..

Now you can get Canabis without a prescription if you already take opium, or you have ...PTSD

That maybe a good thing, because it is still the medical marijuana.

What ever floats your canoe.

Regardless that there is 30 times or more tar and nicotine than ordinary tobacco if you smoke it.

And if you operate an automobile or vehicle while using, then you obviously could care less that you're endangering your fellow human beings with your actions.
It is a choice, and you yave to live with that responsibility.

Not really, in tests , hand to eye coordination is improved.
I learned to drive stoned, going around my school running track. Although, I must confess, at the end of 1 straight, there was a small hill. Every time I got to the end of that straight, I could hear the music from the dukes of hazard in my head, and I had the urge to put my foot down, and get some air over the hill

I tried it recently because I was told it helps with pain.
I got a buzz but when I smoke it I become super-aware and it was awful.
I hated it.
Till I smoked it, I wasn't aware just how much I compensate for the pain and sickness I feel. Being super-aware, I felt every second of it in full intensity. Worst 6 hours I have experienced in a long time.
Thanx but no thanx.

Tom, you probably need a good indica for physical pain. With a high cbd content. On continued use, the difference between a sativa and an indica becomes more apparent. Indica is a bit more in the body, and sort of like Valium. Sativa is more cerebral, bright colours and such. That's less good for physical pain

Thanx but I'll pass.

We have enough trouble with drunk drivers, we don't need stoned ones piled up beside them and killing others.

When in college I knew a guy who smoked the stuff every night. By the end of the first year his personality had shifted. Couldn't make important, at the moment decisions. Everything's ok mannnnnnnn. From what I've read it deposits a film on nerve receptors. This may be why after continuous use it takes less and less to get stoned. At least that was the experience fellow college students had.

For medical purposes I have no complaint though I wouldn't go that route. Inhaling any type of smoke intensely surely will have a side effect on ones lungs that can't be good.

I don't know how evenly weed-use has spread through the country, hopefully not too evenly because some places are real bad. Like the island I love on, next island/peninsula down as well I think.
When in Amsterdam the other day you smell it everywhere.
I don't like the smell of it at all.

I have a prescription and only buy from the licensed producers. It has changed my life for the better. I have a mental illness and unlike most may think, it does increase the value of my life. Like alcohol, it needs to be used responsibly. Sativa and Indica need to be used properly for different symptoms. Also, I feel knowledge really needs to be learned.

I found super lemon haze, great for depression and motivation. I'd sit for maybe 10 or 20 minutes 1st, and then just got on with stuff.

Five years ago I had to have an operation. Without it, I would die. The operation did save my life. After 7 hrs on the table, I woke up to the worse pain I've ever known. Five years later and I still hurt. A pain so bad that no pain medication would hardly touch it.

For almost 5 years I could hardly move for the pain. I started to gain weight. I got to heavy because the pills that just barely held the pain down, doped me. Just sit on the porch and watch the world go by and wait for death to come and get me.

They added years on to my life by fixing what was wrong. But the price to pay for each day living was almost non-stop pain. That's no way to live your life in pain so bad that you can hardly open your eyes. After 5 years of trying to do it the "doctors way", I gave up and started cannabis about 3 months ago.

I'm a card-carrying cannabis oil user. I got my doctor to help me get the card that says I can legally carry cannabis oil.

After the first use, things started getting better. The pain started easing away. It did something that a hand full of painkillers couldn't. After using it for a few days, I started getting off the porch because I didn't need those addictive pills anymore.

I've always had a lot of energy. Those pills were killing it and me. After a couple of months, I started exercising again. I started gaining my strength back again. I dropped from 275lbs to 248. Then from 248 to 230.

Yes, I still have a bad day here and there when the ache will creep up on me and hurt me all day. But I will gladly accept that. I've gone from days, weeks and months with non-stop pain, to a flare up maybe 2 or 3 times a month. I can live with that.

One last thing, you have pill fog. Then you have cannabis fog. Pill-induced fog, at least for me, was constant. The pills kept me foggy all day. Everyday. The cannabis, for me it's different. For me, the cannabis fog only lasts about 30 min to an hour. The fog lifts and I'm ready to go. I can do that.

I went from a 24hr a day fog and still be hurting. To a 30 min to an hour fog and not hurt at all. Sounds like a win to me. Other pluses, I'm able to think better because I'm no longer in a pill-induced fog. I even reopened my shop not long ago and hired my two helpers back.

I ain't perfect. But at least I am no longer sitting on the porch waiting for death to come and get me.
