Is medical marijuana excuse to get stoned for the most of people or does it have real benefits outside few marginal...

- It's a painkiller
10 times the strength of aspirin and works within a few minutes, it's a better painkiller than some very popular prescription drugs that are way, way worse for you.
Cannabinoids are also extremely effective against nerve and muscular pain which most prescription drugs won't help with.

- Anxiety
For some people it makes it worse but everyone else it reduces anxiety as it changes thought patterns.

- Depression
It's far less hit and miss and works for everyone (unlike nasty SSRI's), again the changes in thought patterns help a lot here.

- Appetite
This is huge for people like me, I struggle with appetite and was stick thin for my entire life, THC makes me hungry enough to eat enough protein (I weightlift a lot).

To deny that cannabinoids have medical benefits is ludicrous and debunked by simple science and thousands of years of human history, sure it's fun and I smoke it recreationally but my reasons are medical.

>Appetite
This is one thing I miss about being a weed head, I could eat like a normal person.
I barely eat at all, that I am just happy that I eat anything no matter what it is, healthy or now.

user knows nothing about Chemo and Cancer patients

Who cares if people get stonned tho.
What are they gonna do get the munchies?
Relax at you?

Did you know that the second most detected drug in professional bodybuilding is THC? Second only to steroids...

Bodybuilding and cannabis are best friends entirely for the medical benefits.

No cbd does not get you high. Cbd weed have some thc too so you need to get oil.

Logically thinking:
Lungs are only biologically made to only breath air. Where our lung bags take the O2 from the air in our blood for our vital organs, and release our CO2. Any kind of other particles in the air can influence our body/health in short or long period of exposure.

But if you decide to take inhalation of smoke. Like cannabis, sigaretes, vapes for a frequent exposure. Can always give a bad influence on our lungs. So if u do it, do not do it regularly.

>sigarettes
This is unacceptable

all of this is bunk but the appetite.

works better than taigon, zofran, reglan, phenegran, atarax, ativan, but not lidocaine.

I'm sure theres a reason they won't let you just drink lidocaine all the time though.

Its not really a pain "reliever" it just instigates an amazing amount of mental apathy. It's a life reliever, a temporary labotomy.

Yes, most people use medical marijuana as an excuse to get stoned but will still continue to tell you how it is "muh medicine bruh". I've been there too. These days, THC gives me anxiety attacks of the worst kind, CBD is far superior for medical purposes imho so I only take CBD pills or oil with no THC. Makes me sleep better, reduces anxiety etc.

>all of this is bunk but the appetite.
No it's not you retard. I have been a daily smoker for 7 years, if there is a benefit from smoking I have experienced it tenfold.

When I'm ill I reach for weed before paracetamol and ibuprofen because it's just better at reducing pain and discomfort and works straight away.

All those stonerheads should start smoking CBD instead... but i guess it's not that fun.. it's retarded to compelling people to think weed is good just because people have used it for thousands of years... it's 2020 and with science i think we have the right medicine folks need.. and with that you don't support criminals by buying it!

Most things have plenty of good benefits, when used in moderation. A little weed can relieve stress n' junk, too much and your brain could become a lazy turd.

Weed makes people ten times worse when used in excess, completely zaps inhibition, memory, attention, discernment.

but you can't use it to kill yourself. wham. legal.

Still carcinogenic regardless. It doesn't cure pain, it just temporarily subsides you feeling pain.

Also:
>daily smoker for 7 years
>when I'm ill I reach for weed

You just find any excuse to smoke. Get help.

>Be objectively wrong with retarded opinions
>Respond with memes when you can't come up with a counter-argument

>It doesn't cure pain, it just temporarily subsides you feeling pain.
That's what a painkiller is you massive retard.

Also smoking makes it carcinogenic, you can ingest weed or vape it to reduce that.

Dumbass.

Various meds work to resolve certain pains. Yes, NSAIDs like ibuprofen and aspirin just mask the hurt. You got long-term hurt? Go see a doctor.

YOU said you SMOKE every day for the past 7 years. I'm just quoting you, faggot. Don't get your stoner ponytail in a faggy bunch.

Exactly
fyi the military still uses this when someone in pain has to stay on duty. alcohol is less inebriating than opiates, who knew.

Why are you mad today user it's just a 5mg thing of marinol that hits after a couple of hours i'm not bragging saying LMAO WOAAAH DUDE I DO TEH WED. Are you doing alright? You can talk to me if ya want.

Nobody is saying it cures pain I said it reduces pain which is completely true you strawman mongoloid.

>Don't get your stoner ponytail in a faggy bunch.
Except nobody would look at me and think I'm a stoner. I work with tons of people who smoke weed and none of them look like your "typical" stoner either.

Not bunk, I have clinically diagnosed anxiety. Tried prozac for awhile and they helped but smoking has more immediate effects and calms me down far better than the pills could when I have anxiety attacks. I don't really smoke to get high though, only use it when I'm stressed. Plus I couple it with talk therapy so don't know if it's doing all the heavy lifting or not.

>Been a daily smoker for 7 years
>When I'm ill I reach for weed

You might be mentally ill

>Except nobody would look at me and think I'm a stoner

Probably because they don't have to look at you to think that because you tell everyone how much weed you smoke

no you don't. no it doesn't.

any thread alive 20 responses in is swooped upon by people pretending to be both the patients candidate and the devils advocate because hehe poop.

Marinol is a placebo.

Not one of you can hold an apt conversation. Sober people can see you like that.

Just because something is illegal does not make it immoral, the reverse is also true.
They are only criminals by buying it because an influenced law says so. On the other hand forcing people to pay off unsettled debt that could plague them for the rest of their lives through harassment and false threats is perfectly legal, yet completely immoral.
Legality of controlled substances (most) helps everyone, with regulation and standards quality is increased, hazard to consumers is minimized and profit for both state and federal is increased.

I have to use pot for meds, and I hate every last stoner for it. If my cheapass healthcare could formulate an odt anti enemic that didn't induce rancid migraines I would throw that shit in the trash

Yeah ad hominem helps your argument.

>Probably because they don't have to look at you to think that because you tell everyone how much weed you smoke
Except I don't do that, it's not even legal where I live.

>no you don't. no it doesn't.
Yes it does.

>I met a stoner once and I didn't like talking to that person therefore all stoners are like that.
Great argument.

morphine will make your depression go away instantly and give you a peaceful calm.

better start using that because patients know their feefees.
>no. it doesn't.

also
>every single stoner I have ever met that didn't take their wig off in 30 years of life.

You're all the same. Socially "acceptable" addicts

Not one of you can hold
>i met a stoner once and

An apt conversation
>i didnt like talking

Sober people can tell
>therefore some other shit you didnt say

for a person naming fallacies you're really getting warm to shitpost

Not the guy you're arguing with but I can tell you've never personally met a pot head in your life.

Yeah they're so hard to run into lol.

Get bent argucist.

Oh cool it turned out being a troll lol

The difference here is pot is much, much better for you than morphine, far less addictive, infinitely less likely to OD on and has far fewer side effects.
It is not socially acceptable to smoke pot where I live.

Dont feed the troll as soon as they said poo haha i knew

>argucist
cool non-word retard

The difference is you can't OD on it. It doesn't have "medical" benefits without boosting this or surpressing that...so yes, you can bet it is both addictive, and causes imbalance side effects. Like the chronic use of anything.

Basically you're just touting the "its better because people are idiots" schtik which is the same reason its getting legalized so good for you.

>a response
Retard

I dont smoke to get high, I smoke because I have anger issues, I have a lot of anxiety and depression. I like the CBD flower that I can get from the store, shits awesome. It doesnt get me super high but i feel less stressed

My girl on the other hand that bitch just wants to get BAKED. She hates CBD and always either chain smokes that shit or we have to get real weed. CBD is mild because its hemp not weed, it has like..0.3% THC

I smoke to feel better, not looking to get stoned all the time. Sometimes getting baked with my girl is fun but I might start buying CBD flower for me and weed for her.

Pretty sad that people take time out of their day to do that but it's Cred Forums and the kiddies must be posting on the bus to school.

I have been sick to the point where getting up or trying to eat or drink anything made me nauseous so I couldn't really take prescription stuff. I had already been this sick for two days so it was pretty awful. A friend convinced me to take a few hit of a bowl of weed and I was up and walking around ten minutes later. I was able to slowly start eating and drinking and by the next day I was totally better.

That was when I was convinced there might actually be something to people using weed other than just to get high. I didn't continue smoking after that, but if I ever get that sick again you can bet your ass I am getting weed first thing and not pills.

Are you stupid. Why do they give you “medication” when you have your wisdom teeth out or you break your arm or you have any number of certain medical conditions. They prescribe any number of different medications for all sorts of reasons.. only retards that believe their fathers that believe their fathers with zero basic scientific evidence but the good old book believe that shit still. Educate yourself. Go back to your Jesus book fucktard. As a Canadian I feel absolutely sorry for all of the brainless retards that still think that marijuana is a schedule one drug compared with Heroin cocaine opioids

Because they make money out of it.

There is hundreds of different ways of taking marijuana.. Gummy’s candies similar to the vitamins your mommy probably still feeds you. Little pills, there is several smoking options, 10 years ago how much of America smoked.

I do agree with that 100% that is why I grow my own medication right in my backyard.

Drunk people are less likely to die

But it is a schedule one drug user. Also I hear you, but not sure if making that argument on the cusp of marijuana severely impacting society much heavier than ever before is really all that apt. If anything you are too late now.

If you take a closer look at the states that have gone recreational in the U.S. you'll quickly realize there's a whole slew of new shit that came with the laws changing. Now we have concentrates with 90% thc, every kind of candy or food item including drinks infused and all the labeling and keep away from children problems you can imagine that come with those things and not to mention decades old hemp laws changing. This is so much more than just hurr weed is legal now guys. It actually is kind of a big deal and it is new territory in a lot of ways.

Making weed legal comes with an asterisk.

As a medical marijuana user i prefer it it opioids i have degenerative disc disease so im in constant pain ... i can smoke a little or go with edibles and still function and do shit with my kids as opposed to nodding out from legal heroin and missing out on my kids growing and doing stuff with them my kids are 10 and 12 even they know the difference and are all for me using medical marijuana they hate to see me take pills ... oh and the oxy pills those pay for movie night every friday with them

Illinois just legalized marijuana for recreational use. I’ve smoked it in the past with friends but that’s been ages. A dispensary near my house has lines of customers that go on forever and from what I have heard on local news channels the taxation on that shit is outrageous!

Cbd is for wake n bake

I was once an American combat tool for government ends. My combat experience warped my head. I got injured and all that negative things that happen will people have millions of dollars of murder resources.

Cannabis helps me to exist. A powerful tool. But not the only tool.

I, too, suffer from chronic d.d.d. It’s a 24/7 pain that never stops. Tried CBD topical cream but the relief was minimal and eventually the effects wore off. My state legalized recreational marijuana use a couple of weeks ago. I want to try smoking but I feel like such a newfag that I’m scared to visit the local dispensary.

user, denverfag here. Most dispensaries should be the same. Let me help you. What you need or look for? Maybe I can give you some info so you know what to ask for. What’s up?

>with science i think we have the right medicine folks need
Naive thinking. Science is just ONE method behind a shit ton of bureaucracy, cultural norms and religious beliefs that also affect our society.
People relate to all those things differently and there is no ONE right way to make everyone happy.
Science might actually prove thc/cbd to be effective in some cases but people may use it for other purposes because of the narcotic effect and/or placebo effect.
I found great relief in cannabis but also see how it caused other problems such as inability to keep healthy routines and getting small everyday chores done.
The society decriminalising a new substance must be prepared to handle the ways it changes people's behaviour, a single individual might not notice it himself but when 10-30% of the population have lower work memory and motivation everything can change.

Last spring I tore a muscle in my back, which gave me some terrible nerve pain radiating around my ribcage for a few months. The kind that wakes you up at 3am and you cant get back to sleep.
Asprin/Advil/Tylenol/Aleve did nothing, T3 did nothing, gabapentin sort of worked but I could barely walk on it. Lo' and behold getting a little high cut the pain down more than anything else.
I hate most weedbros, but I will admit it does work well on nerve pain.

>it reduces anxiety as it changes thought patterns.

>, THC makes me hungry enough to eat enough protein

mah nigga.

more intense orgasms. better sleep
more stamina on cardio workout

basically you're getting cucked if you don't smoke

Weed is for faggot incels that can't accept that they're literal human waste.

>more intense orgasms. better sleep
>more stamina on cardio workout
Take this to Congress as support for legalization, "mah nigga"!

The bureaucracy point is spot on. Government study on effects of weed in the U.S. was flat out not being done until just recently because it was illegal so if one wanted to holistically compare a prescription drug to weed with science it was simply not possible, anyway. And now it will be years before accurate results for long term use come out for weed. There's your science.

It'd solve the opioid crisis. Better to get the injured addicted to weed for painkilling than opiates. Much lighter withdrawal too, so they have hope of getting sober again.
Nausea, appetite-loss, pain; very common problems. The anti-psychotic CBD can help with a bunch of that too (haven't ever had it myself in isolated form, don't know whether you should drive on it).
It might not be perfect, but it's better than some of the fucking poison we're prescribing right now. Nothing should be banned from research, especially with the safety checks in place these days.

The legalisation of weed made aggressive drug dealers push opioids instead to the benefit of the medicine manufacturers.
These things are complicated...

. Keep your local weed man in good relations.

weed fucked up my immune system
i still smoke occasionally, but not everyday anymo
