medicinal cannabis

[oldpink]

this thread is prompted by people contacting me through BCF and other forums asking if I can help hook them up to medicinal cannabis
I really don't see the issue here, why can't people choose to try something different
I always try to help out when I can but its difficult when its considered illegal

BTW I consider myself a recreational user banking on the benefits it may have

but when it comes to medicinal or even life changing I see no issue with allowing it

But what "illnesses" are considered medicinal enough to allow it to be cultivated by the user/recipient of its medicinal value.

Not many, I'd imagine.

So does one therefore have to purchase the already-cultivated product from an "authorised" source.
Like, I dunno, Monsanto ...

I can grow nettles to help with, say, arthritis.
Indeed, any manner of other "medicinal" plants.
But not cannabis. How is this right?

So far as I know, I've not got any illnesses bad enough to warrant the medicinal stuff.

To be quite frank, I'd just like to smoke it because it's a nicer buzz than alcohol, which is bad for your liver anyway.

Problem I have is that it makes me LAZY.
Not specifically whilst I am participating.
But two to three days later, its almost impossible to put one foot in front of the other, and that lasts for several days.

Therefore, frustratedly and very reluctantly not partaking of it as much as I would like.

It's only a matter of time before it becomes legal in the uk anyway, it's a wonder drug. the results speak for themselves.

Medicinal bacon sandwiches and recreational cannabis for me.

Medicinal cannabis laws are a waste of everyone's time because of how open to abuse they are.

I have no issue with people's right to choose for themselves, but the weed debate is often a false debate, with the pro-side being largely recreational users in denial of any medical problems associated with the drug. It's much more likely to be harmful than alcohol if used regularly. The only sense in which weed is safer is in that of overdosing.

I gather MS society are very pro cannabis.

My mum had that disease and watching her go down hill was pretty horrific. Anything that can alleviate those symptoms should be allowed, even encouraged.

It's available on the NHS if you can get a doctor to prescribe it off label and if your primary care trust are willing to fund it.

Which pretty much means it's not available on the NHS.

I read it as medicinal cannibals.

Disappoint.
