Hi Auqadoll

 

I can identify with what your husband is going through, as I also suffer from PTSD. Having tried a number of prescription drugs with no success (i swear some made me worse), I turned to cannabis and found that it is very effective. I use high CBD varieties at quite low doses.

 

Good luck with it all.

Hi, I empathise with your husband Aquadoll. I wondered if you got any further with initial request and were you successful? I was discharged from the military with PTSD & Depression after 5 deployments overseas and 20 years service. I've done just about all I can do in the way of therapy, courses, medication, alternative therapies etc and results have been maybe a 10% reduction of symptoms over 5 years. In many cases my symptoms actually got worse. I have never used cannabis in any way, shape or form but I'm at a loss. I considered the legal route but although there is a chance I would be successful with a prescription, the cost is prohibitive! Any advice?

Honestly, I can only talk from my families experience. Cannabis is the only thing that works for my husband. Over 20 years on cannabis now with a break that resulted in hell on earth but got me here. I'll send you a pm of what he went through and if you can relate please try cannabis .

Thanks for the advice AquaDolly. I can certainly relate and appreciate your insight.
