What does Cannabis do for you?

This is what it does for me. What does it do for you?
I wrote this awile back. Back when i was dry for a long period of time and had the Need For The Weed so bad.
just one of those days.

Marijuana is my muse.
It Brings out the best in me.
It helps me deal with the past, Present, & future in an orderly manner.
Information is controled eaisier while under its influence.
My tolerence for facts & ability to deal with problems is increased.
The Likelyhood of acheiving progress in life would be increased substantially.
It will help me figure out what to do, and how to take action.
It will make me feel able & Ready.
Causing me to be more sensitive to things resulting in deeper understandings.
I need to breath some life back into me.
I need To smoke some green.:thumbsup:
And you do to.
:cool:
What does it do for you?

it helps me slow down, i have a busy schedule and it is a way for me to relax and enjoy the present time more effectively
it has brought me closer to people who i had never really known, and without any negative side effects

It helps me sleep comfortably.
It keeps me from having panic attacks.
It lowers my anxiety level so that I am able to function and interact more positively with others.
Its cultivation gives me an outlet for my creative and nurturing side.
It gives me a cause for social change.
It lets me teach others to be self-sufficient.
And it has brought me into a wonderful network of like-minded people from around the world.

I was almost murdered by another child when I was 3. He hit my head repeatedly with a hammer. I obviously survived the attack, but was left with migraines and cluster headaches. When I was 19, I discovered cannabis. With the right strain, no more migraines (with "wrong" strains, they are lessened). It has made a difference between an existence filled with disabling, nauseating headaches, and a productive life working in Special Education.

I'm also 60. Cannabis helps with all the aches and pains of getting older. It eases my mind knowing that cannabis may prevent amyloid plaque from building up in my brain halting Alzheimer's, that it may slow or prevent atherosclerosis, and that it may protect neurons from many types of damage from strokes and neuro-degenerative diseases. (click the link below for the studies) Cannabis may make my "golden years", more "golden" by avoiding many common conditions. I wonder if pot smokers can even get Alzheimer's?

Cannabis brings out my creativity. I do lovely works of art when high. Most of my college papers were written high and I graduated with honors. Did you know, the word "inspiration" also means "to breathe in"- cannabis is my inspiration for many things.

My hubby is a chronic depressive and keeping him well medicated makes life easier for me. Plus, it evens out my mood swings. After a long day at work (Special Ed can break your heart), I can unwind with a tiny pipeful and let the day go. It prevents the "burn-out" that forces many in my job, to quit after a year or two.

And the stuff is a heck of a lot of fun!- Granny:hippy:

I have things to deal with, on top of things I have to deal with, in order to return to normal. Cannabis can send me past those steps.

Nearly every inch, of my body, has been diagnosed and rendered untreatable. Nearly every inch, of my body, can be healed through cannabis.

Thank God, you made it another fifty-seven years, Granny!

Did you know aspiration, as in hope or goal, also means to choke? I just thought it was kind of funny...

-Ends stomach pain
-Ends my nausea
-Allows me to socialize better with people because of my Asperger's
-Reduces fibromyalgia pain dramatically
-Helps me sleep
-Helps my anxiety and depression
-It's FUN :thumbsup:

Helps me mellow out after a long day. It also, and people don't realize this, helps me socialize. It is a social activity, to smoke weed. You meet new and interesting people.

Most of all, it's a good way for me to hang with my friends. It has been and still is such a strong thing in our lives. whatever we do, we smoke before we do it. Go for a walk in the woods? bring weed. Go see a movie? get high before hand. Go out to eat? Get high before hand.

Dudes,

I know what you mean about it helping with the headaches.I was in a car accident in my twenties. I have nerve damage in my upper back and neck regions. I get severe headaches. Dr.s had me on valium, and Vicodin together for years.Weed is the only thing that helps them. Also I am hyperactive. Being born in 1960 no one knew what is was. I though my name was â??Shut up Budâ?� until I was eight. Weed calms me down. I have nervous leg syndrome. Weed helps me control it. I am dyslexic, Weed helps me control that. I have Obsessive compulsive disorder, Weed helps me control that. Why do I have to live in a state that has no Med Mar Law?:stoned::stoned::stoned::stoned:

Bud

Weed does alot of great things for me, it helps me sleep cuz i have a mild case of insomnia, helps me get through things easier, im more patient cuz im a really impatient person, which also helps my anger, helps boredom, and all around just gets me high and makes life a whole lot better, which alwayz makes anyone who smokes weed feel the best in the world!:thumbsup::jointsmile:Also weed has led me to this awesome site! I Love U Cannabis.com!!:D


Keep on Tokin:stoned:

Increases my happiness

I can sleep, eat, and have meaningful feelings.

Cannabis has given me a quality of life I would not otherwise have--addicted to opiates AND in pain is not living...

Now I actually enjoy talking about and planning my future instead of only envisioning more bleakness and pain.

Why is that so damn hard for people to understand?

Buzz

Cannabis helps me spiritually. When I am high, I feel like I am on a different wave frequency with people and they respond. My creative side is released. Growing it has opened my awareness and appreciation of plants in general, giving me a more wholistic view of my existance.

ugh..im never creative, and even if i was, im talentless in art and music, despite my love for them....lol

for me, i love a nice baggie, small bong, and a big soft couch that i can sink into while watching a movie.

It relaxes me and it if I'm stressed it comes me down.

Also if I can't sleep it knocks me right out. :D

What cannabis does for me:
It helps with my depression
It helps relax my back from spasms I have in my trapezius and lower back muscles
It helps me sleep
I have stomach issues and it helps me maintain my weight
It calms me down when I'm upset
It helps me see the brighter side of life!
It helps with my social anxiety
Its made me a much more pleasant person
It saves my marriage, because when I'm high I'm much less likely to kill the old man...
And much, much more!!:hippy:

Nothing I can't achieve without it.
But I smoke it because I like the feeling.

it enlightens me....

It brings some sort of sense to the hurricane of thought inside my mind, and also it helps my brain shut down when I'm trying to fall asleep, as long as I'm not too baked. It helps with migraines, boredom, headaches, depression, anger, and general discontent. It's also my motivation for picking up my bass or guitar on one of the rare occasions that I actually do pick them up.

it does everything for me
keeps me sane
sometimes it helps me sleep good(strain depending)
gives me enjoyment
gardening is giving me a better sense of life and something great to accomplish
ect ect ect

makes my troubles disappear

helps me go to bed at reasonable time.(4:20 am right now.....havent been smoking lately so im up this late every night

makes me happy

and helps me relax and enjoy the present moment instead of thinking too much about random shit

takes away my stress most of time and relaxes me
because theres so much fighting around my house
i'll go crazy if i dont get high and forget about that shit

Keep posting and rank this thread.
what else does cannabis do for you thats positive?
im going to take all of your responses and use all this positivity towards cannabis to create videos, and articals.
Two main reasons cannabis is illigal is because of all the negativity towards it, and all the disinformation.

Id also like to add it helps me perform on an optimal level.
It helps with adhd not that i have it but it eliminates all my speedy racing thoughts so i can focus on one thing at a time.
and thats the best way to make progress. One step at a time.

What else does this wonder plant do for you?

it gets me closer to god
when you smoke the herb it releaves to your self
:rastasmoke:

For me, Cannabis does a lot of different things, and I do mean a lot. It really depends on the dose and strain. For a long time I used to get really baked, but for me that was too much, getting super stoned all the time. Weed makes me more creative, but when I was doing it so much it began to do the opposite, making me feel just kinda of spaced out all the time. It was then that I realized that for me just getting a hit or two is the absolute best, and knowing when and when not to be high. With a mild dose I feel stimulated, productive and more comfortable socially. I feel that my life is pretty much fine without weed, but the right amount at the right time does wonders for anything from relieving most any pain to giving me a nice lift when I have a lot of things to do. Occasionally I do like to get flat out stoned tho, if i need to wind down at the end of the day. Sleep is wonderful in that state. It really is a remarkable plant. :)

I have bad allergies so it relieves the tension around my sinuses. Also cures the headaches. Cannabis has helped me to become more open minded about things. It has helped me to not sweat the small stuff and to relax and enjoy life more. I used to be more of a violent type person but now I can say that is long gone. All I can say is that there is just nothing better than rolling up several dutchies and chillin out by the beach with some friends. Complete stress relief...:rastasmoke:

It helps me with my insomnia and keeps me from having panic attacks.Also helped me kick a bad drug habit clean for 6 years:thumbsup: and weed helped kick the urges and muscle spasms:jointsmile:

A lot of things, but, here's a quick one:

It changes me from the fallen knight, on his last legs, to Sir Lancelot.

weed gets me high.

it makes life easier.....

Marijuana has changed me from a lost person just drifting his way through life without any effort to go in the right direction to a determined, confident, successful, fearless man who can overcome any obstacle thrown at him.

1 year ago, when I started smoking I was high as a kite and started thinking about myself, and in that moment I realized that I was not who I want to be. Since then I have become much more the person I want to be. But this is a long process and it's far from complete.

A lot has changed about me, but everything for the better.

Increase in creativity
Increase in attention
Increase in self awareness
Lowers stress and increases relaxation
Effective and immediate relief from headaches
And just because it is enjoyable to smoke a bowl, in the same manner that some find it enjoyable to drink a beer.

You got it 100% right !!! It does the same for me. It gives me a different perspective on things like problems I'm having in life. It helps me look at those problems in a different way to where I understand better at how to solve them. I wish they could make it legal. I know the world would be a better place.

Makes me really happy.
Makes me have loads of fun.
Makes me relaxed and one with the universe.
Deeper thoughts,things are very interesting.
Makes me feel greatly rested after sleeping.
Marijuana just balances me out. :stoned:

The Weed gets me high. :smokin:

Cannabis is greatness.
With it, I'm so much more thoughtful.
I'm creative and kind.
It's the best way to relax after a hard day; I'm not much an alcohol fan..
And it's great for pain relief without those harsh side-effects that pills always have.
It's just the best plant in the world.
The most useful one, IMO the most beautiful one ;)

Just fuckin leagalize it already!!!!!

It gets me high:D
Chills me out
Helps me sleep
I enjoy smoking it
