Has anyone on this thread ever actually smoked pot?
@Waiting on him I think that some ppl would talk about it; others might not. Some households are restricted to nicotine; and perhaps even if you and @VictoryinJesus had smoked pot (and I'm not even asking) there might not be a lot of discussion about it, if at all.

Others might freely discuss it; everyone is different.

Had the opposite affects on me always made me really hungry.
I used to get the munchies so-o-o bad! Man, oh, man! And then I'd get such a stomach ache. I used to have a real drug problem. Actually, it was a real heart problem! But praise God! He had a solution! No easy fix, though!

I’ve smoked it before but it never did much for me. For me it made pain worse…heightened or maybe it was my awareness of the pain it heightened. I didn’t like it but that is only my experience. I get more benefits from a glass of wine.

My son uses weed for chronic pain. He turned down oxy's and v's from the doctor. He wants to get an A.I. robot woman and program it to make him a sandwich. I'm not sure what his wife would think about that.

Glad to hear he turned down the Oxy’s

That kind of drug is for sick people who don't have any other options. Especially if it will keep them from hanging themselves because they can't stand the pain anymore.

I am not sure how I feel about medical marijuana but I have 3 family members (age 24-78) all of which suffered some kind of chronic disease....one of them was taking 5 blood pressure medications and they still couldn't get her blood pressure under control.
She has been taking medical marijuana in a liquid form and her blood pressure has been normal for.the past 8 months......
The other 2 members suffered chronic fibromyalgia and neuropathy......and had to stay on strong pain medication in order to just get around the house.
Now both are off the pain meds and strictly take medical marijuana in gummie form.

I asked God how can something like marijuana cure or treat so many ailments....yet cause so many problems?

Now I am not advocating for anyone to start using it...I am just so naive about it and would like some input.
My son was on full spectrum CBD and THC in the beginning after he was diagnosed with a brain tumor. As long as we were able to get it, his scans were clean. Then, our source came under close watch and we couldn't get it. :(

The man who gave us the products told us how to use them ....half a dropper of CBD (to counteract the psychoactive effects of the THC), then 15 minutes later, 2 drops of THC. We were able to work him up to 5 drops of THC, 5 or 6 times a day. He functioned very well on it.

I think that's all I want to share. It's been a rough few days for me. But people need to know it's not just cut and dry. It depends on how you use it and why.

LOL... You forgot to mention all the pot shops suddenly opening up... Here in my city... we have
about 8 of them... and 3 on the RESERVE.
The Gov put a stop to people just being able to get it from organic growers and producers of hemp oils. They had to make it so that people who actually need it have to jump through hoops and pay 10 times as much. By the time you go through the process of being approved by a doc ...it could be too late. You have to pay hundreds of dollars to just get approved and then you have to pay hundreds for the product. It's crazy.

Anyway.....I said I shared what I was going to share ....I miss my son....not the best subject atm for me.

Thank you for sharing that information...
I will pray for you sister that God will calm all the storms in your life and the clouds will part and the sun will shine on you and mostly that His Peace will be upon you and your sorrows and worries will be turned to joy...the Joy of the Lord and it will be your strength as you lift up your song of praise to Him, our Lord Jesus, the one who sets you free.
Amen
