OK guys. I want the gods honest truth, right here, right now :strokebeard2:! With a growing interest in Herbalism and more natural ways to heal/treat health related manners, Im starting to ponder Marijuana.

Is it really something that truley helps those who are seriously ill? Or is it simply an excuse that stoners have because they want it legal :smirk: I Like weed as much as the next guy, but whenever I hear the term "Medical Cannabis" Im rolling my eyes on the inside :lol:

-Got some back pain? GRAB YOUR BONGS!
-High blood preasure??? Light a joint! :rave:
-Anxiety??? You know where the Vaporizers at bro :stoned:!


Lets assume its legalized tommarow. Would medical cannabis really be preached about as much? Is it a honest herbal treatment from god/the earth that helps to treat medical complications :mushroom2:



Yes.

It's a medicine, but just like all psychoactive medicines, it is abused as a recreational drug.

Dr :ronpaul: says to stop trying to treat the side-effects of big government and focus on the core issues. End the Federal Reserve/audit the gold reserves at Fort Knox, abolish the IRS, end all wars and occupancies, stop the building of an empire that will inevitably fail, and cut all unconstitutional federal programs. Put the power back in the peoples' hands by ending this nanny-state.

my words.
Also the fact that tabacco & alcohol are legal, and weed isn't makes me go "wtf?"

Eliminating the factors of weed like the tar etc you smoke, i think THC and the other cannabinoids are great molcules that help in many ways.

It is the ultimate cure for boredom.

Im sort of interested on the physiological effects that THC exhibits down at the molecular level. For example how does it make u hungry. It is inolved in a PKB cascade that results in the export of GLUT embedded vesicles to the cell membrane. Then your blood glucose drops and u get hungry. But thats not really a medicine. It is very useful in epilepsy cause it reduces excess neuronal activity thus inhibiting teh neuronal excytotoxicity (i think the last term is wrong :vaped:)

A nice indica helps my anxiety more than benzos do, and it helps the pain from my back disability more than muscle relaxers and painkillers.

It's not legal in my state, but I really can't wait until it is. My meds are expensive as hell and I'm not risking losing my life to growing a plant or two.

There are definitely people taking advantage of the system, and until this stops, medical marijuana won't be widely and readily available to those who really need it.

People in CA etc. are getting treatment through cannabis and aren't addicted to benzos and opiates.

Yes.
Personally for anxiety/depression. It just plain balances out my mood and helps keep a positive outlook on life.

It's just like the story of the grasshopper and the octopus.
All year long, the grasshopper kept burying acorns for winter, while the
octopus mooched off his girlfriend and watched TV.
But then the winter came, and the grasshopper died, and the octopus ate all his acorns.
Also he got a race car.
Is any of this getting through to you?

Thats one of my favorite effects.  Alzheimers is some scary shit, and if there is any genetic component to it, then I may be screwed.  Hopefully cannabis is as effective as reported in slowing deposition of that amyloid plaque

I keep telling my mom that she should smoke because she's become pretty absent minded and I'm afraid she might end up with Alzheimers, which I've always thought to be such a sad disease. She kindof rolls her eyes when I bring it up because, ya know, cannabis promotes short term memory loss. But I always bring up the facts..Proof's in the puddin.

Theres a part in Jack Herer's (the emperor wears no clothes) book where he talks about giving cannabis to some family member with alzheimer's and there was noticeable improvement after about a week, it was very encouraging.  The whole short term memory impairment does make it seem sort of counterintuitive.

There are fucking HUNDREDS and HUNDREDS of practical medical uses, and it's the safest drug on the planet, what do you mean is it really a medicine????

Aspirin will KILL YOU if you eat 20 of the motherfuckers.

When I was in severe pain a couple weeks ago from my broken molars, I was given vicodins and percocets for the pain, which didn't do SHIT. A medical grade indica though, killed the pain completely.

There are some people MUCH worse off, and marijuana is the best and safest alternative they can possibly get to treat their chronic pains and various things. It's a lot better than eating some pills that are gonna kill you. New studies have shown that marijuana has a protective properties on the brain, it actually coats the neurons of the brain with an enzyme that protects it and minimizes damages caused by things such as Alzheimer's, MDMA abuse, etc etc. And that's just the tip of the iceberg. It does wonders for anxiety and depression in some people. And insomnia. And various phobias. And cancer patients. And AIDs patients. And people with chronic fatigue. And people with chronic pain. And the list goes on and fucking on.

Yeah sure, people use marijuana to get high.
But it's value as a medicine is completely legitimate, and totally underrated.

So yeah..,. fuck yeah it is a medicine.
