Thanks Storm Crow. Kush....I know what you mean.....like a paper tiger but it actually DOES make me feel more releived even though I know the feds couldn't care less about state law. But it certainly makes me NO worse off.....

Altered it depends on the state I think but what was told to me was that I need to have a previous diagnosis from a third party physician of something that the state has ok'd the use the of mmj for. In my case it was depression.......I have a long documented history of it and interestingly enough.....mj has never helped (or hurt) my depression but HAS helped me with a lot of menopausal symptoms which was my main reason for wanting to "go legal." The doctor told me she could really only recommend it for the depression (since it was a previously documented ACCEPTED reason) but hey, if it happened to help with my hormonal crap so much the better.

My hubby uses mmj for insomnia......but does NOT have a documented history of it because he never wanted to take ambien or any of those meds. The PA told him what he would have to do is go to a different doctor and get the diagnosis before they could reccomend it to him. Again....things may be different for different states.
