It's not for everyone, but it shouldn't be a crime (especially medicinal use).. Though, it isn't all that uncommon to have some mild paranoia from smoking weed, and that obviously won't sit too well with some people who suffer from SA. I've never been affected one way or the other from it, and I've heard some people say it has helped their anxiety. But, I'd still say it's relative to each person. We all have different opinions on topics like this. I hope some day it's at least decriminalized, and dying patients won't have to worry about getting arrested for having medicinal cannabis.

This link that you posted leads to an article that has schizophrenia in the first line, and I'm reading into things too much? Maybe it's not a case of me reading into things too much, but you not reading into things at all. Even if you did just post that link to prove a point about this endless argument, please read your own articles if you're gonna post them...


Peace

All I've ever said is that cannabis helps me, and it could help others with drug resistant, recurrent panic attacks. I have agreed with you all that it isn't for everyone, but it can provide relief for some people. I don't get why that makes me such an "arsehole."

Peace

In all of my few posts posts ive got a single link to one site which mentons Schizophrenia... and your big point about that is?If you actualy took the time to read the article before telling me to read up,You would find it actualy says "All of the recent research into this issue has found that cannabis is neither necessary nor sufficient to cause schizophrenia by itself" Wink

All ive ever said is it causes me problems... you made the little leap on your own to schizophrenia from "problems"Ive never said or suggested cannabis causes schizophrenia.Defensive much?

In fact all ive tried to say on this is it doesnt work for me but i can appreciate the benefits it could have for some people.Thats all alot of people said and thats all it took for you to try and tear down there opinion.I actualy wondered if it was just me untill i went back and read the start of the thread.But no youve gone round in this little circle with a few people.You asked for people to discuss this topic... yet all of a sudden if you got a viewpoint which heaven forbid didnt agree with yours.. you screamed propaganda.. got really arsey and argumentitive/defensive in your posts and patronising... insulted people.. said "knew you would get people like this ect ect

And this was with people who were trying to be civil and polite to you Silent... even tho they didnt share the same beliefs they tried to be diplomatic and open minded.But you took everything as a personal attack Confused Why ask for somthing if you cant handle the fact not everyone is gonna agree with you then bitch about it cos they didnt.Or ask for peoples opinions if you only want to be told certain things.

You know.. i can understand what your trying to do,you just take it too far im telling you this honestly because i really dont think you realise how extreme you come across when you get into this subject.You seem to want to be totaly entitled and unchallenged to your own opinion but are quite happy to try and rip other peoples to bits.Honestly have a look back at some of the early posts... theres a difference between debating a subject and argueing who is right.

I never thought id say this to a stoner but take a chill pill.

I'm out. I've tried passing on to you guys and gals my experience and knowledge on this subject, and I think I've done that in this thread. I just want to put to bed all of the myths surrounding marijuana. I think I've done that quite well, whether I've stepped on a few toes in the process or not. My intentions here are to spread the truth about marijuana as medicine for people like us, and I think I've done my job sticking up for the plant. I won't be returning to this forum again, as I feel there is a lot of negative energy building in this thread and that's certainly not what I intended. Keep it real everybody.

& for the last time,
Peace

I knew a guy who used to smoke marijuana all the time and then later I found out he suffered from social anxiety. Smoking didn't seem to be helping him much, though. He seemed dull and was desperate for it all the time. I think he was kind of paranoid too, which is common I've heard.
