Yes, very similar to me, I've tried 6 medications so far, I'm so over it. Marijuana is so natural and causes so harmful effects to my body like the pills, and it helps so much.

Next get yourself out here! Getting "legal", when you have a legit medical problem is quite easy. You make an appointment with the doctor (NORML has a list). Bring about $200, ID and proof of residency (phone bill, etc) and your medical records. You get a check up. You chat with the doctor. You pay the doctor and he hands you a letter that makes you legal! You may now grow 6 mature plants and have 8 ounces of dried bud.

Cards are not mandatory - there are 2 types. County cards- put out buy the local government...or not...depending on the county. I don't have one since (a) my county has yet to give them out (they are finally talking about it, though). And (b) I trust my local (corrupt) government about as far as I could heft the county court house!

Then there are the club/dispensary cards- I don't have one of these, either (my county's only dispensary was raided and closed). They are for a specific dispensary and nowhere else.

And psychological problems ARE covered by recommendations! My hubby's is mainly for depression. The law reads- any medical symptom that "If not alleviated, may cause serious harm to the patient's safety or physical or mental health." Depression certainly qualifies!

And wait til you have that first "legal" joint! :stoned: You won't believe how high you will get! Paranoia is a BIG bring-down! - Granny:hippy:
This is what I needed to here! Thanks SO much! I hope I can do it :jointsmile:

chrons Reviewed by chrons on . I need some SERIOUS help... I have been smoking for about 3 years, at first it was fun every now and again, but slowly became an everyday affair because it helped me with anxiety and depression. Zolofts are the devil! They ruined me and my personality, marijuana seems to be the only natural and real way for me to feel my best and live a normal life. These drugs the doctor gives me are killing my stomach because I am very thin and they affect me a lot worse. Marijuana seems to be a Gods gift to my life and I want Rating: 5
