[QUOTE="helpangel, post: 534447, member: 7170"] Thanks Matti, that does make a lot of sense and my caregiver pulled out my file and confirmed what your son's doctor said. Actually "I told ya so" was what he said LOL. Then he went on to explain he steers me toward the indica because the sativa makes me have difficulty sleeping, when I can sleep I sleepwalk about 5 times more and I get very hyper and b!#chy (yes I gave him the raised eyebrow and asked if b!#chy was a medical term?) Both help with the pain in my back and both help settle stomach (ulcers) but the hyperactivity level I have going on makes sativa a big no no for me. It's more like for a cancer patient who is down for the count to be able to drag themselves out of bed when don't have any energy. In the USA we have an issue with caregivers want research grants to take the (buzz) out of mmj and only have the medicine left; but mmj is against federal law and even though some states have approved it - the banks are all federally insured. My caregiver makes a cream I put on my bad disk and it is pain free for a couple hours yet doesn't cause any impairment or buzz to it. It's very expensive so only used when going to be camped out at a courthouse all day and can't medicate or similar situation. Doesn't smell, doesn't alter your frame of mind I really believe this is the key to making it more socially acceptable. Problem with street pot is a grower throws a bunch of seeds out there and has no idea what type of plant they came from you often end up with a mixture of both kinds. Problem with teen usage is brain is developing & addiction portion of the brain is maturing so anything started as a teen will be about twice as hard as an adult to quit. They can also kind of hard wire their brain into believing it needs it. In the entire USA there are only a handful of mmj patients under 18yo. I'm still going to try to keep my girls away from it as long as possible (they are lazy enough). Because it's natural many people feel its harmless - cobra venom & moose urine are both all natural but I wouldn't recommend drinking either one. MJ is a high powered medication and should be treated the same way as lithium or opiates etc. and only be available by prescription. [/QUOTE]
