I certainly was interested in what kind of responses you'd get.....I've enjoyed the reading, and I got a chuckle! I grew up in the 50's and 60's. I have always been such a chicken when it came to something as this. I will say this though....If it would give me my life back, you bet I'd be buggin my doc. If it would give me some relief and help with my mobility issues, you can bet that I'd be asking each one of my doc's if they'd prescribe it. I'm still to much of a chicken to just do it. With my luck I'd be the one that would be slapped for it and my name in the paper for illegally using or buying it.....well, I just couldn't. Murphy's law would certainly apply! I'll be watching this post for more replies, that's for sure!

With the legalization of medical MJ is some states, it's bringing some problems such as what you're talking about, Sissy.
You can have so many plants for so many people and they are still making changes to the law as people stretch their use and posession.  I don't care about it's legalization one way or the other.  I feel like you do and picture myself in handcuffs for having brownies in my kitchen,  Lucy

I have really wanted to try it.  I have had severe, disabling periods of joint pain in my arms, hips etc.  I have tried pain medications that do nothing for the pain and make me very nauseous...horrible!  I do live in a medical marj. state, however, it is like $500 for a license and we have no dispensaries, you have to grow your own.  Well, that is totally unreasonable.  I don't know how and don't want it in my house nor want to do that much work.  I have zero access to it, would not know how to buy it off the street and don't know anybody who uses it.  I know people are very opinioned about this subject, however, walk a mile in my shoes with the pain I have had and you will see it is a whole different story.
I also don't like the idea of the State/Fed. gov't having my name on some list   But if I am in one of my periods of pain and had access, you bet I would try it in a heartbeat!
