How has Cannabis helped you?

[Gulthurdan]

I was wondering on the many advantages that cannabis has help the many people on this forum?
My story is that it helped me with but not limited to...
Minor aspergers
Social anxiety
Major back pain (From working with the fire brigade)
Occasional migraine
Help during time of weight loss (you wouldn't think because of munchies )

 

But when I moved over here from N.Z I had to stop during a period working with drug tests. So to date I haven't smoked in over a year..... I can tell you that for the first 3 months I was fine but then the stages of social anxiety came back and it got to the stage that I couldn't even see my friends without feeling anxious. Then the crippling back pain came back, to the stage that I need to take pills that make me feel sick and drowsy. All during the stage that I didn't smoke I gained a LOT of weight!

I'm going to start smoking as soon as I can find some . But How has it helped you? How has your life changed with and without the magical medicinal property's of this beautiful plant?

I use Cannabis for Anxiety, and Back Pain, without it, if I have to function I am a grumpy caged animal who doesnt really like people.

With certain strains for the anxiety and hash and edibles for the back pain my life is semi normal, without the need for handfuls of codiene tablets etc.

Best thing I ever did was take control of my own medication.

 

Just remember, everyone is different , what works for one, may not work for another.

 

Peace. Nibbler.

 I got 3 kids under 6 . How can it not help !!!!

 

I got high stress job + a busy family life . After work i go to my man cave for 30 min with guitar in hand get nicely toasted and unwind . Instantly at ease,  all the BS from work stays there and i am a relaxed happy Dad .

 No real medical reason i smoke because i am a adult and i choose to use cannabis for its relaxing enjoyable high . 

Most aussies i work with use booze or fags or both for the same reason . Worked with alot alcoholics in the past and the impact it has on family and work life puts me off the drink .

 

 I choose cannabis and have a happy productive work and family life .

I have perminant structural damage to my lower back. I injured my back slipping down a stariwell on a jobsite at an early age. Weed has been the only medicine that does not throw my system out of wack or cause more issues. It helps ease my pain and increase my mobility. Without it, I am told I have a bad attitude, for me this attitude is called PAIN. The best thing I think weed has done for me is limits my dependance on the Health System.. Pharmacutical companies, Doctors and the Gov dont profit from my suffering.

 

Keep ya fingers Green

Physically cannabis eases my pain and relaxes my muscles.  Mentally it brings my spirits up and stops me from worrying so much about things like my finances.  It also makes me way more patient with my daughter so cannabis helps me with most aspects of my life.

Farkin Well Said Badseed, Same Here.. !! Its just a personal choice ive made, not against alcohol or the people who use it, but as a choice i feel i should have, and fuck the law that says i dont have a choice.. I work hard and pay lots of tax, i should not be made to drink alcohol to unwind, just because its taxed and regulated.. 

 

I have a right to unwind from my day how i see fit.. And i believe vapeing cannabis is the most safest form of relaxation available to man. 

 

I basically use  vaped cannabis as a preventative medicene,(anti bacterial/fungal and anti -inflammatory)  and as pain relief.. i havent had a cough or cold for over three years.. my lung function is excellent.. im not over weight, and my well being as a whole is good.. i did have a herniated disc last year and cannabis helped me thru long nights of suffering..

Apart from only having 2 kids and no guitar you described the wife's and my canna use exactly.

Its the best instant de-stress around after a mental day at work.!!
