the secret for everyone involved (IMO) is to network and find other patients so that you always have someone to reach out to when the need arises. Two heads are better than one and they usually know 2 other heads who know 2 other heads...repeat/repeat/etc. :stoned: I know how hard it is for some folks to come topside and to even admit to others they are a patient but until you do you will be all alone and at the mercy of others who will tell you how well they are treating you as they are simultaneaously reaching around for the wallet in yer back pocket.

there is strength in numbers in many facets in this game. As a patient you have more power than you think. If each one of you wrote a passionate, open letter to the Editor of a newspaper and told how MMJ has changed your llife you may sway that ONE vote that will make the difference in the end.

and if each one of you reached out and made contact with another patient you may just make a friend for life....someone who can relate to you and still LIKE you even on your worst days.

I agree with you 200%. In my painful world i have 3 people i know i can call on and they will be there for me on my worset of days and spend the best of my days with they are my husband, sister-in-law,and mother-in-law thats it if i didnt have them i would have no one and then i realize there is someone out there right now that doesnt have one person they can call they really have no one. I want to make it so that everyone has someone. I am here if you need to talk let me know on here and i will send you my email. I cant win this pain battle on my own so i dont expect anyone else to do it alone.

Thank you blackhash you are a friend that everyone needs also.
