RE: Drug War Stupidity: "Marijuana Overdose" the Problem that Never Was

in #cannabis7 years ago

Thanks for covering this. As someone who has been caught up in the healthcare system over the past 7 years I know too well the power big pharma has over multiple facets of health treatment. For the first time, since I started taking meds, I am now weaning off of everything. And, boy it's rough. I can't count the number of docs who told me that I wouldn't develop dependence. Obviously, not the case.

Unsurprisingly, it is cannabis that encouraged me to wean off. Cannabis relieves pain and doesn't carry nearly as many side effects.

But, anyways, I'm sure I'll be intertwining some health-related stories in my blog.
I just watched a high quality short documentary series on Netflix called Dirty Money. I think you'd like it.

We're on the brink of a healthcare revolution. I'm not sure when it will gain traction, but it's inevitable. I just hope it comes sooner than later.

Thank you. I will have to check that out.

Yeah I think the medical effects of cannabis is one of the reasons that it is kept illegal. It is bad for these businesses and they don't to lose the income to it.

Things do seem to be getting better, at least. I think it will take 10 or 15 years but we will see full legalization.
