ok, so I recently took a video survey on medical (excuse me for saying this) marijuana (not sure if im allowed to say that) but it was bascially saying that it can put you in a better mood if your depressed, loney, sad, joints hurting, back pain, cancer. just about anything you can think of medical marijuana will take care of. Although you may have heard this before, but its been legal in California for 14 years now. but the police department still hate the fact and have a major problem with it. Because all you have to do, is go to the doctor and he a prescription for the drugs and you can get high all you like. Is it just me or do anyone else, think this entire things i just weird? I mean i understand it can heal people, but what about the people that don't need healing, and just want to get high just to get high. what do you think about that? from the sounds of things you can most likely tell i don't smoke at all. lol i don't drink either. but what is your opinion on it. its no right or wrong answer. im just interested in hearing what other people think!! thanks

I suppose it is a problem as pain is something no matter if the tests reveal everything is negative there is absolutely no pathology to prove otherwise. Therefore, although it is suppose to be medicinal you have those that abuse the fact that they can get it legally. It is a wide spread problem and no one will ever get to the bottom of it. I just think sometimes people over do it so they can get it. I suppose I can cheer for those that need it but somehow I can't imagine my brain altered to alleviate pain with this. LOL..

lol. your right. people will abuse it because it is legal. and might be easy to get. but thankfully the senate bill passes a law to limit how much an indiviudal can get. but thank you for your comment!

My uncle was prescribed this once a long time ago. He had MS (still does). I am not sure what benefit it has, btu he said it helped him deal with the pain. If anything I am sure it helped him relax because of the pain he was in.
