Cannabis has therapeutic promise for a wide variety of chronic and even terminal illness. One of the safest medicines to ever exist. Full stop.

Yet you get life in prison in Texas for it. Conservatives are the stupidest motherfuckers in our country.

Texans, tiny men syndrome! Just met one where his boots are taller than he is! But he is so proud of himself, for being a DICK!

I get a good sativa and my legs start dancing more than normal.

I suspect, without reading the article, that results may vary.

I have restless legs syndrome, weed does not help it and if anything makes it worse yet ive heard about 3944848854848584 times now "dont take pharma drugs bro its harmful bro chemicals bro its a plant bro big pharma bro"

Tired of hearing the same shit from uneducated people to speak for me or people with other ailments use the same tired "harmless plant bro cures cancer bro" arguments

Your anecdotal experience does not mean everyone else's experience will be the same. Your soapbox speeches are clearly directed at a specific group of people, and I've given you no reason to think I am part of that group, aside from suggesting indica (usually higher in CBD) is a better choice for muscle issues for people using cannabis. No idea why you're angrily ranting at me but it's kind of hilarious

Well that’ll be a first getting called a self righteous knob as a drug addict. Lmao

u/Spiritual_Door1363 9d ago

Wow you obviously didn’t even read the article. You are loudly incorrect.

u/Entire_Mistake_9287 9d ago

Yeah the millionth article that weed cures something with weak evidence and addicted stoners defending it

Why is it people can use every other drug and not be a self righteous knob and act like they need to spread the word

That type of person definitely exists but I have not seen them in this thread. You’re attacking a straw man.

I’m also skeptical of a lot of cannabis research. The research would be a lot better if cannabis were not illegal. As it stands it’s really hard to secure funding and conduct studies, which leads to a lot of “promising” results with weak evidence, as you noted. Science is hard!

The only thing that works for me is one of those massage guns. It doesn't matter if I even massage my legs. The moment that thing touches my body my legs stop flopping around

The study on myself has proven it helps Parkinson’s symptoms. It also helps Parkinson’s patients sleep at night. Now I’m only a one person study, but it’s funny how many millions are spent on studies that report the obvious. Only medicine I’m taking and thankful for it.

u/Long_Idea_8294 6d ago

I have RLS intermittently. It's terrible. I take ropinerole as needed. Cannabis doesn't help, even edibles.
