I have been smoking about a half a bowl in the morning, half a bowl at lunch, and a full bowl to get actually stoned at night. Does anyone know how I can accurately setup a medication schedule for my Tourettes? I have searched around and I cannot find any "Take .5g twice a day" type thing.

Do any of you medical users ration out your cannabis? I was thinking about getting a scale and measuring out .25g amounts and putting the 1/4g amounts into divided pill containers or something. Does anyone have a link or have any info on how to establish a daily usage for medical purposes?

About 1/2 a small bowl not packed, 3x a day is enough to keep my tics from really bothering me. I am trying to smoke enough for my twitches to go away but still be able to go on with my day and function.

Thank you all for any help,
Dr. H

I guess it's all experimentation. A lot of factors would influence how much you'd need, not the least of which being your own body's personal reaction to THC.

I say, buy a scale and keep tweaking your dosage until you're satisfied, I don't know if there's any other way... but I'm no expert.

Sadly I will not be able to be a MM patient for 2 years until I move to California or the Netherlands for my second 2 years of college. I have to deal with different strains with different THC contents. This current stuff I smoke 3x a day, but the last stuff I had I smoked 1x a day, sometimes 2, and I was fine. Like you said, I guess it's all experimentation.

Thanks for the reply.

Not to talk too much about me, but I am at 3/4-1 full brownie in the morning, or 1 bowl every 3 1/2 hours until I want to sleep(2 bowls at bed time). Depending on my mood/energy levels I might not need to smoke at night. But the prefered method is 3/4 of a brownie in the morning(so it takes effect throughout most of the day, and the after effects linger on towards night), and 2 bowls at night to help me sleep. Don't know how this would work for you, but I would consider working something out with brownies to take effect throughout the day, and a bowl or two at night.

The whole food consumable sounds like a great idea. Could I make Canna-Ice Cream and eat that in the morning? I was thinking about making some canna ice cream.

So 1/4-1/2 a brownie in the morning, then a vape hit at lunch, and a vape hit when I get home from school, then rest of the cannabis before I go to bed.

dude, there will never be a schedule. You gotta figure out what it takes for the individual.

Ditto ,
I medicate as needed just like my Dr. has written on my mmj recomendation . Far too many variables to consider , potency , peak hrs. of pain /prob/discomfort etc...
Good luc

Crispy, where is the cute dog avatar! This volcano thing is like.... 1/5 as cute as that dog was. Oh well...

I am looking into making consumables that are discrete and last. Brownies would cause me to get fat and they can't be hidden very well. I am going to look into making THC candies =P
