Jerebet,

I think this subject brought together as fellow Coloradan's a few weeks ago.

Any one who's interested here we go! 2 main types of cannabis, mmj,

indica and sativa. Indica is more of a relaxant-sedative and kills my tremors

within ten minutes and I'm @ stage 3. Sativa is more of a boost your morale

and pick up with energy and watch out for the munchies. The sativa mmj

makes me want to climb a wall and my tremor increases fast! Very bad for me.

The indica's I like are kush oriented. Baking is easy and I highly suggest

you do it yourself to save money and confirm the sanitation and quality.

Other food groups would be great. Just google it. And feel better!

Any one have thoughts on cannibis vs. Xanax? I've never heard of anyone ODing on mixing cannibis with other prescription drugs. Xanax yes.

I would recommend medical cannabis over a Xanex anytime unless of course your anxiety is so high nothing can help but a aniexty pill and a nap

I will not smoke anymore,BUT there are amazing edibles, known as medibles. I went thru the song and dance to get my card. In NM it requires 2 MDs : primary and pain management. It takes a while (small staff)and reread many times for any iddy biddy mistake it has to go back to the state, blah, blah, blah. WHEN THAT IS DONE there is a wonderful menu, fudge, oil, butter, hard candy choc pudding and many more. I have been trying diff ones and, for me, have been able to eliminate anxiety meds altogether. Got to go now but willing to discuss more another time.The folks who run the dispensary I go to are wonderful, well informed and supportive. Now I really gottago. J

yes I do...makes the day go better.

I do it every day when I get home from work. I don't think I could work on it, I gave up that notion years ago. I was worried about SSRI because the sinamet messes with that also. Of course i am very relaxed. I don't shake after that, but then again I don't do much of anything after that. I would say give it a try. It can't hurt, I don't think.

I smoke everyday...my anxiety goes away for awhile and I can relax, I take alot of meds so smoking alittle cannabis helps instead of taking another pill!!

None of you live in the state of Virginia I guess. Here I only know of one person that gets it from a doctor. and he had his back crushed years ago. Virginia looks out for our health but not our health care.. They would rather see us get addicted to some drug then to make available pot that would help us get through this disease .

If this would help my husband, I would much rather him use marijuana than have to take all the meds he takes, and maybe give him some relief. I'm not sure about Nevada laws tho. I think give you cards in California & Oregon tho.

I smoke medical marijuana that is high in CBD and low in THC. CBD decreases pain better, faster, and with no side effects than any pharmacy supplied pain killer. THC is what makes one "High." If you live in the United States; visit the web site thcfinder.com to find suppliers close to you, what strains they carry, and lab results on analysis of each strain.

Not what you're looking for?
