Miss Emily. I was just answering your simple question with a simple answer. I know all about medical marijuana and its uses and I know about party marijuana. I've never smoked a lot because I don't like how it makes me feel around people, I feel self-conscious and it makes my Tremors worse.
My neurologist also said that it could enhance my seizures so I do not smoke it that often at all. Just as I said before I smoke a couple of hits with my old hippie dude occasionally and I may have a hit after I get off work it depends on if I'm called every name in the book that night.

I haven't been talking about me, I've been talking about my husband he's been in chronic pain for 20 years and I've also been stating the good uses for it. I understand that there are downsides to everything.

The 50 or $60 couple of getting high sessions, that must have been some really high THC levels that neither mild hippie dude or I would even touch.

I've altered my reality enough in my life from drinking I kind of like reality. But instead of having a glass of wine on a very few occasion I'll have a hit.

You are correct on doctors not prescribing it but they can't because it's not federally legalized. They can help you get a they also have gummies and chocolates that you can have that those are normally 10 mg a piece. A lot of the doctors in the VA advise their patients to get a medical marijuana card for PTSD and pain, and that is what my husband does but they can't prescribe it.

My doctor wants me to quit vaping because of the burn that you get in your lungs from The Vape and the same thing goes for anything you smoke. So I have researched it to quite an extent. But next time if you want a more detailed answer than go to a dispensary then ask a more detailed question please

If you read my response, you would have seen the paragraph that begins with "It works for someone with that many problems, I say go for it - if nothing else works..." .....I know who you were talking about.

You seem to want to explain to me what you do with pot for some reason. As I said at the end of my other post..."You do you....whatever. But telling people to "just go to a dispensary and you'll be able to find what's right for you" isn't the best advice, imo."

Not the pot. Thank you for what your mom admitted. Pot has it's good points.

I think that I have a legitimate question for you on this subject. The government, mostly Liberals, have been on an anti tobacco shtick for 50-60 years give or take a decade. Now these same anti tobacco Nazis are wholeheartedly pushing Pot use.

I have tried pot and tobacco in my life, but never actively used either. I don't know so I am asking. Wouldn't pot be as bad or worse for the heart and lungs ? Wouldn't smoking any drug be bad for the lungs ?

Liberal Lily

I would have to say probably. There are edibles, drinks, etc., so there are optionsl

Oh my God, I knew it. Talking about marijuana has to lead to Trump somehow!

To quote what my doctor told me just the other day when I told her that I was vaping, she said that's just as bad if not worse than cigarettes smoking because you inhale more deeply. And any type of smoking burns the lung somewhat, it doesn't matter what type of smoking, it's mostly just the burn.
There have been reports of marijuana having effects on the heart and lungs and mental of course. It affects everyone differently. It's basically just about like anything else, everything in moderation, in my personal opinion

Sorry for the disjointed sentence in there, I was using talk to text correcting something and I forgot to move my cursor down

I realize those facts, but the vast majority of users will smoke. The government is not coming after the suppliers of smoking pot the way they came after the tobacco companies. I find it amazing that I cannot find any good research on the harmful effects of smoking pot. The little research I can find is clouded because many pot smokers are also tobacco smokers.

Again I simply cannot fathom that pot smoke would not be as bad or worse for the lungs as cigarettes. My own theory on the why, is that the government now populated with ex hippies is full on balls to the wall in favor of pot smoking. Funding research that might show pot as harmful as tobacco would upset the current paradigm, which also includes a lot of tax money from pot sales funding Leftist wish lists.

Of course I can prove nothing, but no one can disprove it either.

Well considering your conversation with me started with are you high I guess me telling you about myself is relevant. I don't know what you're thinking of when you're talking about people smoking pot. You look in any dispensary or medical dispensary and you'll find Grandma's grandpas among others in there. It's not just a bunch of hippies sitting around passing a joint watching TV eating potato chips. All I was doing was explaining that I do occasionally have a hit with my old hippy dude and I get articles about hearts and lungs and amputations.
I can also make a damn good convincing argument on why prohibition should be reinstated but I don't want to interfere with anyone having their glass of wine. And I know you knew who I was talking about earlier in this conversation.

son of witless

I am not against pot. I have a good friend who has serious injuries sustained over a lifetime of physical jobs. He suffers from constant intense pain. His choices are opioids or pot. He prefers pot. However, most pot users are not sufferers of constant pain. They are pleasure users.

I got the shock of my life when I was at a party which was mostly 20 somethings. Us older folk were enjoying our alcohol, but the younger crowd were all smoking. What amazed me was the variety of gadgets they were using. Very little joint use as I had expected. These kids had water devices and other cool thingies.

Anyway I just see hypocrisy. If today's kids want to smoke pot, so be it. Then tobacco users should have the same freedom. Since they want to over tax cigarette smokers, then let them screw the pot smokers too, because I predict that decades from now the healthcare costs for pot smokers will be right up there with the tobacco users.
