What needs to be done to get a prescription for one? Or even for insomnia?

I was thinking more along the lines of learning the terminology used so that I can fool a free clinic doctor into giving me a perscription.
With that perscription I could obtain a medical referal for Marijuana by one of several services in my area and then be able to grow weed legally 
I dont mean to buck the system and part of the problem but damn..
Its just that easy.

Just google "depression symptoms," tell the doctor you're experiencing some of the symptoms. Give doc a few potential causes, like recent death in the family, lacking friends, financial stress. Anything that could be stressful. Thats the best advice I can give you.

The buzzword you're looking for is: DSM-IV-TR
This may sound slightly silly, but I wasn't aware marijuana was prescribed for depression. Even if it is, it probably won't be as easy as walking up to a Dr. saying: "I'm depressed, give me pot". THats because, well...people like you would tend to abuse the system.
-------------------- ...the whole experience is (and is as) a profound piece of knowledge. It is an indellible experience; it is forever known. I have known myself in a way I doubt I would have ever occurred except as it did. Smith, P. Bull. Menninger Clinic (1959) 23:20-27; p. 27. ...most subjects find the experience valuable, some find it frightening, and many say that is it uniquely lovely. Osmond, H. Annals, NY Acad Science (1957) 66:418-434; p.436

I didnt know that they legalized it in California for mental disorders either.. But I looked and SB420 (no joke) lets physicians give a referal for depression and some others. They say that a good sativa is great to smoke for depression..
And all it takes to get a referal at many places is to talk the talk and show a prescription bottle.. They would like to have your medical records to look at and Im sure that many places will turn down anyone without records to review but sooo many places need almost no proof..
Here is the FAQ from one site.
FAQ:
Q: To receive my recommendation, what do I need to bring when I see this doctor?<br><br>
A: You will need proof of California residency like a driver license, or other photo ID AND other proof of CA residency, such as a utility bill, phone bill, or bank statement in your name. If you have medical records, please bring them with you. You can contact any health provider you've seen in the past and ask for a copy of your records or a note from them stating that they've treated you for the condition for which you use medical marijuana. This includes your family doctor, chiropractor, dentist, mental health professional, acupuncturist, physical therapist, etc. If not available, you could bring a prescription bottle or prescription (made out to you) that shows you took, or are still taking some form of medication for the condition for which you use medical marijuana. Any scars from injuries or surgeries would also provide sufficient evidence. If you suffer from insomnia, or other less obvious conditions for which medical marijuana can be used, you still qualify and simply need to come in to discuss your condition with the doctor.
Around here you can get prescriptions for all sorts of stuff from any of the free clinics, sleep medication would be easier to get a script for than depression so I think Ill go with that..
Sooo I think that its my turn to abuse the system..
