seeing my mother high on medicinal marijuana today was one of the best things i have ever seen...

It needs to be decriminalised and made as safe as can be. I had an ex who's Dad used to have it in every way possible and it made him paranoid - over ten locks and chains on the door because he constantly thought people would break in (but it was a nice area) if it could be cleaned up, any risky side effects removed as much as possible and vulnerable people protected. I would be in support - especially for those in chronic pain.

Money, race, and power -- the stuff was historically associated with Mexican immigrants and hippies. Banning drugs was a good excuse to arrest brown people and political dissidents.

Glad your mother is feeling ok, can't imagine how that must feel. ❤️

Thankfully I live in a state where it's legal even recreationally, because I have the same problems as your mother (chronic pain from a chronic illness, plus depression).

It has helped with my depression, pain, and anxiety too. I hate that some people are denied this amazing medicine because of their backwards state laws. If I was in my home state (Tennessee), I would not be able to use it.

I hope she can find much freedom from pain and the anxiety/depression that goes with it.

I need that. Pain has my old ass cornered today. These new "miracle drugs" (Ibuprofen and Tylenol) is bullshit.

Glad your mother found a way to relieve her pain.

Mom's been hanging out with snoop Dogg?

Mary Jane is a godsend. I'm happy she wasn't in any pain

I am glad it helps her. It’s legal where I live but it doesn’t help my pain. The CBD helps more.

That goes for hallucinogenic drugs also. Psylocybin, LSD, MDMA, etc.. is proven again and again that when micro-dosed, it has beneficial effects with respect to many ailments affecting mental health. Health regulators say it has no medicinal effects. I beg to differ.
