Just got my medicinal card!

Yeah so today I just got my medicinal card and definately had to hit the cannabis club on the way back. :D

These are some MASSIVE buds! They had no name bud sometimes thats a good thing :)

Sativa: 85% Indica: 15%
Smell: Kinda chocolate/skunky.
Taste: It has a hint of that chocolate taste as you blew out the smoke with the obvious skunky aftertaste.

Has a real smoke smoke and leaves my mind open and running wild with a slight body buzz but enough for me to go and take care of my shit around the house.

Man, gotta love California.

niiiicee do you live in cali?

chocolate, skunky.. mmmm.

What's your illness that you require medicinal marijuana? Just curious. :)

freezland24: I went to a doctor who specifically recommends patients for medicinal cannabis. I took my medical records and perscriptions medications, he examined my person and condition and saw that cannabis helped so I got a card there and then.

Baker420: Yup born and raised here in the golden state. Should now be called the green state :smokin:

Nochowderforyou: Well I have a Social Anxiety Disorder which is severe to the point in which it affects me physically. An example of such that i used to have Eczema on me until I began using cannabis. After using cannabis regularly for 6 months, I took a month long break from the herb and was put on Effexor. What do y ou know and my Eczema came back until I started smoking again and it went away. A more severe example of how my disorder affects me is when I was in seventh grade, I was out of school for 8 months with a habit cough disorder caused by the stress and anxiety my body couldn't handle.

I have been on medications such as zoloft, wellbutrin, and effexor and while they provide some relief, cannabis provides complete relief allowing me to live a normal life.

So now I can finally use this wonderful herb freely (at least as far as state law).

Damn, I wish I was in California :(.

Congrats! Isn't that first "legal" joint a mind blower! You never realize what stress being illegal gives you, until you get "legal"! Enjoy! Grow your limit!

Viva California! :cool:
I had a card for 6 months (cost me $110!) then had to get it renewed. It was another $90 for a year this time. When just about all your friends have a card, it's a better idea just to cruise with them when they do a club run. :thumbsup:

There was this club called Mother Earth, (it's closed now, I'm not afraid to bring it up) where there was a huge table inside with a Volcano vaporizer in the middle that any patient could use. There was also a bunch of buds laying around to try before making a purchase. Most clubs also sell tinctures, edibles (candy, chocolate, honey, brownies, cookies, THEY HAD IT ALL), thc pills, hash, hash oils, and many more.

It was all great until all the clubs around got raided and 3 of my friends went to jail for a few nights, because they were there when it happened. Still very cool shit though! If you live in California and haven't had the chance to see what a club is like, I highly recommend you get a card, ASAP. It's really easy to acquire...all you need is a California residency ID, and a hundred bucks in yo pockets. enjoi. :rasta:


Oh yea, and as Storm Crow mentioned, you can GROW WEED, LEGALLY! Tons of it too, like 12 plants if Im not mistaken. You are also allowed to possess around a half pound (8 ounces), if not more, of buds on you, anywhere, anytime!

thats awsome..in north carolina...well your screwed on stuff like that..i have un controled high blood pressure..and i take 6 diff meds....but when i hit the gaunge its normal for about six hrs...i think i need to move to CALI

Welcome to the "Club" dude, but you neewd to know that there is a big difference between the docs recommendation which you got yourself and a state ID "Card" for medical use.

A state card provides surefire protection from local and state LEO, as it is a state issued card like a DL.

A docs recommendation still makes you legal to purchase and posses weed, except you must be xtra careful as there is alot of confusion w/ fakes, night time encounters w/ the cops and no doc to get ahold of etc.

haha arent we lucky to live in cali? the day i turn 18 im heading to the doctors office. a couple of my friends have fake ones but that might not be the best idea because if you get pulled over and try to show the cop your card hes probably going to try to check if its real or not then your possibly fucked.

That's what the herb is all about! Yeah I can't wait untill I'm 18 and I can get my medical card. Things will be alot easier.

After you buy the card, what are the prices in the shops like?

hold on a second, i live in the bay area so i know there tons of cannabis clubs around. But what are you guys talking about, saying that you just need a 100 bucks. Dont you need some sort of medial disorder of some sort? How can i get a card, if possible, if i dont really have a huge medical issue?

I imagine that you can "convince" ($) a bad doctor that there's something wrong with you.

Well to go about getting the card the one maine thing that guarantees it is if you take a medication for a problem and say that cannabis works better than the medication or works well with it.

And prices in the distribution centers are pretty much the same on the street around where I am. 20 a gram, 50-70 an eigth, etc. Hash runs about 40-60 a gram. Baked goods such as candy bars are 8 bucks a piece. And the pre-rolled joints in the vending machine are 5-10 bucks per spliff.

you can buy by the spliff? oh wow....fantasising now

Even if I trust that theres nothing in a spliff I dont see the fun in buying it already rolled lol. I'd rather buy some marijuana then buy some papers and break the weed down and rolling it. Then lighting it :D. It's just way more satisfying than buying an already rolled blunt or joint.

id still prefer holland where u can buy the dankest shit for 6euros/g including hash... the most u could spend could be 15euro/g for some top hash or rare bud... thats heaven to me :D

im moving to cali................ i'll get emancipated from my mom and move to cali with some of my buddies, who could also get MMJ. i personally have PTSD and depression, a buddy of mine is epileptic, and another has ADHD

@ snake
Well I have a Social Anxiety Disorder which is severe to the point in which it affects me physically.

Interesting, as 'Social Anxiety' has been linked to chronic marijuana use.

Is your doctor trying to keep you in the cycle? :confused:

I got a card too, but for sleep apnea (of all things!).

Well even pharmaceutical medications that are supposed to relieve anxiety can cause anxiety as well... it goes to show that every drug affects everyone differently. For some marijauna may cause anxiety, but for me it relieves it. It gives me an appetite, relieves my insomnia, helps my eczema go away, etc.

Also when you say chronic marijuana use could that also refer to 'abuse'? Because when abused yes, almost any drug can cause social anxiety.

@ snake

Use vs Abuse...using a drug is attempting to achieve its desired effect. 'Abuse' is to misuse a drug for something besides its intended purpose.

Not all drugs contribute to 'social anxiety'. Take methamphetamine for example. Although it can cause paranoia and psychosis in consistent amounts, it doesn't necessarily exacerbate 'social anxiety', which is a fancy word for 'shyness' or other social inadequacies.

Oarangeman In the shops you buy the Bud... Just the same. Trust me you can get the dankest bud there, all the names brother. Seriously..
Uberdave Hey I have sever social anxiety disorder and have been on every medication known to man... Is there a certian strain that was recommended for that I am curious.
Thanks yall

I wish Texas had that medical card shit.

You can also throw in that you can't sleep and eat... Thats what I told my Doc and he gave me my prescription without asking any questions...

i have bad anxiety this was befor i started smoking but im on meds for it its bad if i dont take em so if i move to calli i can get weed as a scrip

all you guys yelling out 'how can i get a card' and 'faking medical records' you jerks! you are going to ruin it for us people who have a legit need for medical cannabis here in california.

a bunch of 18 yr olds running around like free pussy day in high school, is going to screw people over who need this medicine to function normally, to fake a script or fake ailments to get 1 does nothing but bring the medical cannabis users down, and comparable to crack heads.

grow up, dont be an opportunist to take advantage of something that has been fought for by hundreds of thousands of people and finally voted into state law (california prop 215 1996) the medicinal marijuana laws.

its disquisting what i read here, the orignal poster in this thread has valid reasons but 90% of the other posters do nothing but encourage the faking of medicinal recoreds or finding a shyster to pay off.

you 'KIDS' make me sick, go to school.

time for me to puff sum legal meds.

Calm down and take a fat puff on that legal med of yours. No one here or any smokers going to ruin anything for you. If you wanna bitch go bitch at the doctors who don't give a shit and give out recs without even a proper exam. I personally feel anyone whos a responsible person sick or not should try and get legit cuz its alot safer for you to buying , grow, smoke, and own marijuana. How many ppl out there get their weed from a unsafe area, get ripped off from dealers, can't get dank and have to smoke laced swang ect, ect... I'm not a believer that only the truly sick should have the right to get their meds safely, anyone and everyone and I don't care what your reason for smoking is should have that right...

word djm

how easy is it to earn one of these cards? if i say i get horrible migranes is taht good enough or does it have to be more serious?

i dont think you'd get one for migrains but im not to sure

I hear ya.. There's an art/science behind rolling, and I don't find it as satisfactory to smoke a pre-rolled doob..

With that out of the way, you're paying a lot of cash for buds.. $20 for a dime? What a rip!

I get an ounce for $190 (CDN), which is decent I think.

Ok, if you have a medical problem, it is very easy to get a card. Get a copy of your medical records, make an appointment and pay the nice doctor. The state card is NOT necessary unless you wish to visit the clubs. I don't! Our local cops are corrupt, to put it at its nicest. I don't trust them as far as I could toss the courthouse!

If you are faking it, please don't ruin it for the REAL med users- become an activist instead! It WILL be legal some day- what are you doing to speed that day?- Granny- a REAL med user!:hippy:
