how did you go about getting your card anyway? do you have an actual condition or just make up some bullshit like everyone else haha. the only people i know that have them just said they cant sleep or eat or have some sort of chronic pain, no pun intended haha i know you have to pay too but is it really that simple??
Well...I am not dying of cancer or anything...yet.
I did a lot of LSD, mainly in the early 90's. I fight pretty severe depression, a little anxiety, and if I don't smoke some insomnia. Again nothing I am dying from...yet.
I have taken a couple of anti-depressants which would kinda work, for a while, and then steadily need more to work even a little. The side effects suck, they are physically addictive (if I missed my dose I would know within 2-3 hours because I started feeling a sick "high" which progressed to vertigo if I did not take the shit. What a perfect scam, I have to take the medication or feel like I am on drugs. This is pretty much backwards! I took about 6 weeks weening myself off. It sucked!!!! the long term effects seem to make it harder to focus on shit like calculus and O' Chem, stuff you, or at least I, need to really focus to get.
So, I decided to just deal with it. I found that cannabis can elevate my mood to the point I don't feel (as) depressed. I am a single father and my daughter likes me better when I smoke, I am not as much of an ass.
I have found really good clinic sativa dominant crosses like the diesels are excellent mood elevators, and don't make me as lazy while still feeling stoned. My doctor recommends "staying ahead of your symptoms" meaning don't wait till you feel like shit to medicate. Unfortunately my job would frown on me being
at work, so not always the case. Luckily I like my job and am used to poverty.
Although I have always smoked, I tried to smoke as little as possible cuz of the cost, hence the money pit of growing your own
.
Smoking really good bud and more of it sure improves the quality of my life...duh!
So no I do not have some mysterious back pain, but I am also not terminally ill. The Cali law states, "for any other condition" that a physician approves.
The shit "normal" doctors feed people who have the blues is serious brain chemistry altering crap that has not been studied enough. The SSRI class drugs are a trap. In the long run they do not work, unfortunately by then many people are heavily medicated on often several psych drugs. And after all if your doctor gave it to you it can't hurt you, and he would not give them to you if they did right...?
Doctors practice medicine...on you!
****upon close inspection (removal of cat hairs with tweezers) harvest has been delayed****
They appear to be making another push of flowers following a weird increase in small single bladed leaves. Got my scope to focus and except for one which looks like maybe the trichs got cooked a little, the others are clear, on stalks, and about 10-20% amber. So I will be patient. This was after 14 hours of dark. I have heard of people keeping them in the dark for 2-3 days to increase yeilds.
