People drink Alcohol because they enjoy the process and the taste. People take Cannabis because they enjoy the effect, the high. So you support banning all alcoholic content and only selling non alcholic drinks like 0% beers? Because nobody drinks alcohol for the effects right? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rubbish! As per usual..... Quote Assoc. Prof. Dr. Pattapong argued that some groups are negatively portraying cannabis solely as a recreational drug while ignoring its medical benefits. He highlighted that smoking cannabis can effectively relieve various medical conditions, supported by case studies and research. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hummin Posted Tuesday at 09:06 AM Share Posted Tuesday at 09:06 AM The OP post is incomplete with no source linked to the research itself. It continue to give a false impression that mental illness can be cured by medical "cannabis" which is in many cases wrong and dangerous. Medically reviewed by Alyssa Peckham, PharmD, BCPP — Written by Amanda Barrell — Updated on March 6, 2024 Certain studies show that cannabis can worsen bipolar disorder symptoms. However, other research suggests cannabis can improve some symptoms of bipolar, such as those related to attention and memory, while negatively affecting others. For example, cannabis has associations with higher levels of manic and depressive episodes. This article discusses research on cannabis as a treatment for bipolar disorder. It also explores other medical uses for cannabis and alternative approaches for managing bipolar disorder Many people with bipolar disorder use cannabis to help manage and treat their symptoms. Anecdotally, many reports claim the substance is beneficial, although the scientific evidence remains unclear. https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/marijuana-and-bipolar-disorder#cannabis-and-bipolar-disorder 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a customer looks like becoming over-served the bar staff/manager should stop serving them. But of course we know that doesn't happen. Same as weed shops should not serve anyone walking in with money instead of a prescription. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBChiangRai Posted Tuesday at 10:13 AM Share Posted Tuesday at 10:13 AM The article the OP posted does nothing to promote the recreational use of Cannabis, it's entirely about medical use only. So it's pointless any recreational Cannabis user here thinking it helps their cause in any way whatsoever. Further, he mentioned case studies without providing any references, he mentioned Israel where recreational Cannabis use is NOT LEGAL. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But any drug can be abused and used in high quantities cannabis can still be harmful like anything else: What I've noticed over a few decades is that the psychotic aspects only affect people with extremely weak minds, and people who are extremely susceptible to a breakdown. It's quite possible that something else would have triggered that along the way, most people with a strong mind have no ill effects whatsoever. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Normal people can have a break down at least once in a lifetime. Men are maybe not willing to admit so.

Popular Post Bob Skerstonas Posted Tuesday at 04:10 PM Popular Post Share Posted Tuesday at 04:10 PM so do you think this might be the cause, Medical Uses Known in the 1930s USA Pain Relief: Cannabis was recognized for its analgesic properties. It was used to relieve pain associated with various conditions, including migraines, menstrual cramps, and chronic pain. Antiemetic: It was used to treat nausea and vomiting, particularly in patients suffering from illnesses such as cancer. Appetite Stimulation: Cannabis was known to stimulate appetite, which was beneficial for patients with wasting syndromes or those undergoing treatments like chemotherapy. Antispasmodic: It was used to alleviate muscle spasms and was prescribed for conditions like multiple sclerosis and epilepsy. Sedative: Cannabis was used for its sedative properties to help with insomnia and anxiety. Cotton Industry The cotton industry perceived hemp as a direct competitor. Hemp fibers were used in making textiles and other products that cotton also served. The production of hemp required fewer pesticides and was more versatile in its uses compared to cotton. Thus, the cotton industry had a vested interest in diminishing hemp's popularity to protect its market share. Pulp and Paper Industry Similarly, the pulp and paper industry viewed hemp as a significant threat. Hemp is an excellent source of pulp for paper production, requiring fewer chemicals to process compared to wood pulp. Leading figures in the pulp industry, such as William Randolph Hearst, who owned vast timberlands and paper mills, allegedly supported the prohibition of hemp to eliminate competition and protect their investments in timber. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
