Would I ever be quailfied to get medical marijuana?

Post Reply New Topic

I have Aspergers and chronic depression and I smoke weed illegally and I find its starting to help with me being less obessisive and repetitive and helps ease my depression.
So I was wondering if I could get the marijuana prescribed to me so I can get the cleanest possible weed to smoke?

Unfortunately there are so many pharmaceutical antidepressants on the market, its not likely marijuana would ever be approved as an antidepressant (even though it has none of the long-term side effects). Big Pharma does not like competition from Mother Nature.

It would be easier to go to a real psychiatrist and inquire about legal meds that do the same thing and would probably cost less even if you don't have insurance. It sounds like you want a license to enable your stoner lifestyle.

I'd love to get qualified for some of that stuff, but for another reason. If it would help me to get my appetite back, sign me up!

I stoped taking my meds and am starting to feel better.
Meds made me gain weight be more unhappy caused me to not give a s**t.
Where as weed calms me down dosent make me too hungry lets me enjoy life, like I get the energy from weed to start ripping it on my bike and going so fast that I can almost catch up to traffic its such a beautiful feeling.
and yes weed cuts dosent make me want to eat that much and I get too paraniod to eat junk so if I eat at all its usually somthing healthy like a small sandwitch with water.

If you live in a state that has a medical cannabis law, take a copy of your regular doctor's notes saying you have depression or AS to a DOCTOR who recomends marijuana and you will get a legal recomendation. It will cost about $100 but then you will not feel guilty or be parinoid about getting busted for using a substance that helps you. Just ask you regular doc for a copy of your medical records where you have been diagnosed for depression, AS or any other condition for which you feel that MJ helps you. You don't have to tell him/her why you want it. You have a legal right to your medical records and it''s a good thing to have a copy for your own records anyway. This is assuming that cannabis does really help you. Good luck and happy legal toking.

It would also relieve my heel of that chronic pain caused by tendinitis.

I smoke it because it helps with my depression, anxiety and PTSD and it makes me feel a bit less akward around people...Studies actually indicate it can help with depression, anxiety, PTSD and AS or Autism. The trouble is in most states where medicinal marijuana is legal it is more difficult to get it for psychological reasons than for physical reasons it can be done though. Not sure how, still trying to work that out so I can maybe be approved for it.

Well reading back you live in Canada...so yeah not too sure how it works there.

I really do not believe the psychological aspects are proven. It can also create anxiety and reduce motivations. IF this were any other approved substance I'd be saying nothing works for everyone. There is also the possibility that without it after enjoying it increases depression, anxiety and so on and taking it again reduced these psychological factors where applicable. The pot movement is about the feel good high and don't tell me what to do ideas in my opinion. This conversation then can go onto alcoholism is much worse and so is smoking.

I find that assessing my position in life is better than using medicines of any sort.
