    Ok i suffer from a disability called Cerebral Palsy.. and because of this i got arthritis is my knee really early in life and it causes a lot of pain.. plus muscle spasms and general muscle aches and what not.. well ive been on LORITABS (Tylenol and Hydrocodone mix)(hope i spelled that right) and muscle relaxer.. and for the people that dont know they Loritabs can be very.. very addictive and all around habit forming.. now i personally only take them at night once a week if i can hold out that long.. and only for about a month or so at a time because i dont want to form a decency on these drugs even if its physical and not a mental addiction.. so i started smoking pot recently in an attempt to try something new (ive been smoking pot on and off for about 5 years).. and so far i love the result.. i feel good.. i can walk on my kneed with minimal or no pain at all.. and i really think that pot should be legalized and look at more as a pain reducer or eliminator for people with chronic pain.. and its a shame that most doctors wont even look at this as a valid option.. its also a shame that pot has had such a bad wrap in the USA for so long.. In my personal opnion it can do a lot of good.. it certainly has for me

    I am glad you found something that worked, I smoke and it helps with my anxiety. I do not thing that pot should be perscribed for anxiety before physical pain. Medical marijuana would be a large step in the right direction for total legalization.

    i havent smoked just to get high since i was 16. its an occasional extra bonus, but i smoke because of all it does for me. i have chronic back and hip pain, muscle pain (from thyroid medications, i pulled a shoulder/ neck muscle while yawning for instance) and besides pain, it keeps my outlook positive, controls my depression, subverts my vivid, lucid, prophetic dreams, gets me eating (im almost never hungry) and sleeping.
    pot is grand. it is a gift of the earth. im going to get my mmj card as soon as i can afford to. you might consider moving out here, the mmj business in CO has boomed.

    Im really glad i got such a positive response.. It is nice to talk with a group of people that share my opinion.. its a bit strange where i live cuz a lot of my friends agree with y i use it but still push me to take the loritabs over smoking cuz for some reason they think they are safer then pot.. my girlfriend on the other hand completely agrees with me on the subject and we often smoke together.. She suffers from chronic pain and often slips disks in her neck
