Tinctures are one of many alternative to smoking if you want to use legal cannabis

Some people are still put off by the idea of legal recreational marijuana use among adults.

First they said that homicidal Mexican cartels would march across the border and infiltrate all of the peaceful American suburbs containing cannabis dispensaries.

The fear tactic worked for a while as it suppressed voting on these laws, but when states saw a reduction in violent crime with the implementation of legal cannabis markets, this argument fell flat. When opponents tried to say that marijuana use would be a gateway to more dangerous intoxicants, the reality of alcohol abuse and its effects on families was always a shadow looming behind these claims. For whatever these people believed, reality has since proved them wrong. And the ones who claimed that smoking cannabis is just as bad as smoking tobacco, I would direct them to tinctures and capsules. I can find both at nearly all of the cannabis dispensaries in my county. Tinctures are great because the cannabinoids are suspended in what is typically a weak alcohol solution, and you take the dropper and put drops under your tongue. Lots of the cannabis gets absorbed in your mouth while the rest absorbs in your digestive tract. It’s important to have tinctures as a choice because they’re the answer for people who don’t want to inhale anything, regardless of whether or not it’s smoke or vapor. They can also be more effective than capsules for some people who have issues with cannabinoids absorbing in their stomach or small intestine. The tinctures allow much of the medicine to enter the bloodstream before it reaches the esophagus and the acidic stomach.

I lock all of my legal marijuana products in a case so my kids cannot get to them

I have heard about fearful parents who think that anyone who uses marijuana legally in their own home is endangering their children in one way or another.

These are the same people who have no ethical concerns with blasting their minds with alcohol every night.

Where they’d put themselves in a situation of getting in the car and driving to the hospital if there was a medical emergency with one of their children. And when you look at all of the domestic abuse that is fueled by alcohol abuse, the argument against marijuana gets thinner and thinner. I would never advise that people drive a car while under the influence of cannabis, but it’s still a night and day difference compared to alcohol induced driving. At any rate, I am still smart with my legal cannabis that I get from the local dispensary. I have a lockbox with a fingerprint scanner on it. Any product, be it flower buds or capsules and concentrates, goes inside the lockbox. The kids can’t steal my key or attempt to figure out a code by entering different combinations of numbers. You’d have to cut my finger off my hand to get into my cannabis lockbox. On top of this precaution, I try to never get too intoxicated for the reasons I mentioned above regarding alcohol inebriation and the possibility of unforeseen medical emergencies late at night. If I buy a lot of legal marijuana products from the local dispensary, I make sure I never use too much at a time so I’m always there for my wife or my children if they need me.

The benefits of using marijuana

Cannabis plants have different strange chemical compounds called cannabinoids.

  • These cannabinoids have been linked to many different health benefits.

Cannabis can be used to treat a type of health-related troubles. Research has shown that cannabis can help to prevent and assist with diabetes. Cannabis helps to stabilize and decrease blood sugar and can improve insulin production. Cannabis has been shown to effectively treat depression in 85% of users. Cannabinoid compounds help to stabilize mood and can up serotonin levels. Cannabis has been proven to help control seizures and help with ADHD and mental focus. It is a proven treatment for eye issues, Alzheimer’s disease, arthritis, and numerous sclerosis. In 35 different states, medical medical professionals can prescribe cannabis to treat a number of physical and mental issues. It’s easy to make a date at any marijuana treatment center and talk with a licensed physician. This is a smart way to find out if cannabis or medical marijuana is the right treatment selected in your individual case. I’m meeting with a medical professional next month to discuss using medical marijuana to treat my stress. I’ve had stress and depression since I was 14. It can be absolutely taxing to deal with the symptoms from time to time, however cannabis is supposed to work with me. I’m looking forward to reading more about the treatment options available for me. I’m not certain I will pick up smoking as a habit, but there are other ways to ingest marijuana. Dispensaries carry a wide variety of weed infused products like pills, capsules, tinctures, and edibles.

Using weed to sleep?

For years and years, I have had the worst kind of sleep cycle.

My body doesn’t enter a REM period like most.

Instead, I fall in and out of periods all night long and never really achieve a good full night of rest. For the past few years, I have averaged about 3 to 5 hours of sleep each night. If I go to bed at 7pm or 11, I still only sleep for a few hours. My body and mind were not holding up to the abuse, so I contacted a medical professional that specializes in sleeping issues. The first thing she did was schedule a sleep research study. I went to an office late at night and they monitored myself and others sleeping. The next day, I met with the medical professional to discuss what they found. I was surprised when the medical professional suggested using medical cannabis to treat my sleeping disorder. I never thought about using cannabis, but the medical professional gave me ample information on cannabis as a treatment option. I took home a few pamphlets on medical cannabis, terpenes, CBD, and holistic health options. I have another date tied up for next month and I assume I’m going to let the medical professional prescribe cannabis as a treatment. I haven’t smoked dope since I was 19 years old. My friends and I used to smoke a joint in college or before track meets. I do not ever remember feeling absolutely tired or rested.

What is the hold up here?

I’ve been waiting a couple of weeks to get my medical marijuana benefits card in the mail.

I called the office of the medical marijuana registry and they do not have any info to give me.

The lady told me that she could not even find my name in the system. Another woman told me I did my paperwork wrong. They sure have trouble with paperwork there. The last time I talked to them, they told me my card was in the mail. That was about two weeks ago and the card still hasn’t arrived! I’ve been super patient, however I’m starting to grow absolutely sick of waiting. I spent almost 400 dollars to get our medical marijuana card, but between the medical professional visit and the fees to the state, I’m out of cash. I have been saving up every extra cent so I could apply for our medical marijuana card. I use marijuana to deal with everyday pain and anxiety. The medical card means I can legally possess marijuana separate from fear of criminal penalty. It also means that I can go to the dispensary to get marijuana and cannabis products. That’s a huge relief and the main reason why I wanted the card. It’s the reason why I didn’t object to the insane cost at the medical professional’s office. Unfortunately, I cannot use the medical marijuana benefits until I receive the card in the mail. I’m stuck in the middle and calling the office doesn’t seem to help. I need to take a day off work in the middle of the week, so I can go to the actual office.

I prefer doing edibles for the taste

The medical marijuana dispensary also carries a few strange types of suckers, gummies, and chocolates

When we were young, my parents put medicine in lots of yummy flavors like apple, watermelon, and bubble gum. It was usually the only way they could get us to take cough medicine or antibiotics, and my sister wouldn’t take pills or medicine unless they tasted love fruit. At some point, they stopped making adult medicine taste yummy. That’s one thing that I really love about cannabis edibles. I met with a medical professional that allowed for medical cannabis to treat my frequent muscle spasms and pain. I do not love the way medical cannabis tastes, however there are some nice ways to ingest the medicine and get the full effects of it. Edibles are the best type of way to get medical cannabis, and cannabis can be ground up or liquefied and used in several strange cooking recipes. The local medical marijuana dispensary carries several strange kinds of cannabis edibles. They usually have more than one kind of cookie, pie, or hot drink. Last week, they had caramel hot chocolate made with OG Kush and space cake made with Space Bomb. They also have the best oatmeal cookie recipe. They must be made with brown sugar with cannabis. The medical marijuana dispensary also carries a few strange types of suckers, gummies, and chocolates. All of these products are infused with medical marijuana and come in sativa, hybrid, and indica varieties. Cannabis edibles are a great alternative to smoking the actual bud of the flower. It is yummy and simple doing it this way.

We need a cannabis card

When medical marijuana was said yes to in this state, it was taxing to obtain.

There was a short list of medical professionals that were okay to write a prescription for cannabis.

Those medical professionals charged an arm and a leg and required numerous appointments before they would sign the paperwork. A lot of things have changed extremely over the past 3 years. There are easy ways to obtain a medical marijuana card. I live in a small city with a population less than 12,000. There are still numerous medical professionals and dealers that can certify patients for medical marijuana. I met with a medical professional to obtain our legal medical marijuana card. The process was simple and easy. The medical professional performed physical and we discussed using marijuana as a treatment option for my anxiety, PTSD, and OCD tendencies. The medical professional suggested beginning with a low-dose marijuana product in the beginning, after I acquired our medical marijuana card in the mail, I went to a dispensary close to my house. There are several strange dispensaries in our small town, however each one of the dealers specializes in strange medical marijuana products. Some offer flowers and concentrate, while others focus on tablets or tinctures. I met with a budtender inside one of those stores and we talked freely about marijuana and the strange ways to medicate with cannabis items. From beginning to finish, everyone was helpful and nice. The process to get our medical marijuana card was much nicer than I anticipated. I told my partner to make an appointment with the medical professional next.

For my inflammation treatment

Medical cannabis has certainly changed my life.

I went from a certified medical marijuana medical profession to using medical cannabis to treat pain and inflammation associated with rheumatoid arthritis.

I have had rheumatoid arthritis for the past 5 years and the pain is getting worse everyday. I take a lot of over-the- counter medicines like Tylenol, ibuprofen, and Advil, however nothing helps when the weather is cold, wet, or rainy. I talked to my medical professional about pain management solutions and the medical professional wanted to supply me with pain medication! Some colleagues suggested going to see a medical cannabis treatment facility. I was distraught about going to see a weed professional, however I made an appointment. The Medical Cannabis Treatment Center is right across the street from the hospital and easy to see. I met with a medical professional and we discussed using cannabis to treat pain and inflammation. I also suffer from stress and the medical professional felt that medical marijuana would be able to help that issue as well. I went to a medical marijuana pharmacy for the 1st time this month and it was absolutely scary. The pharmacy offers several different types of medical marijuana including smokable flowers, edibles, tinctures, and vape supplies. It was absolutely easy to ask questions and the staff was ready to answer all of my troubles. I decided to start off with a vape pen, which is easy to use and has a pleasant taste and smell. I use the vape pen at night before I go to bed and it works wonders.

Dispensary is having a sales event this weekend

I have terrible PTSD from being in the active military for five years.

I served during wartime and I was on the front lines. I will never forget the horror that I saw during that time. When I close my eyes, it’s all I can see. Sometimes I can’t sleep, because the nightmares are too terrifying. The therapist said this is called PTSD. The doctor even recommended medical marijuana to deal with the symptoms from PTSD. I met with a professional from the medical marijuana treatment center in my town. They were very helpful and friendly and they really knew a lot about medical marijuana and the health and mind benefits. They explained how medical marijuana could help my PTSD symptoms. They even walked me through the process with the state application. The process was very simple, affordable, and easy. I’ve been using cannabis for three months and I feel a lot better. I sleep better at night and I feel less agitated and nervous during the day. Loud noises rarely scare me anymore and that was a huge trigger for me in the past. I only live three miles away from my favorite dispensary. They have great prices and huge selection of marijuana products. They also have weekly sales and specials. This upcoming weekend, they are having a sale on vape supplies and edibles. They will have live music and food trucks. The parking lot will be filled with excitement, yummy smells, and entertainment. I’m looking forward to stocking up on some OPEN reserve cartridges. They have the most delicious flavors like mango, mimosa, and clementine. They will be on sale Saturday and Sunday for 35% off.

Wonderful experience at the cannabis dispensary today

The last three times that I went to the medical marijuana dispensary, they were out of everything. Ever since people started working from home full time, the medical marijuana dispensary has been out of stock. I had to drive all the way to the city last week to find flower, and I spent two hours sitting in the car each way. I was pleasantly surprised to find a well stocked store this week. I got there bright and early on Monday morning, right as they were opening the front doors. I was the third person in line. They only let six people inside the building at once, due to covid19 precautions. I sat in the lobby and waited my turn. My name was called quickly, since I was third in line. When I met with the budtender, he presented me with a list of items on clearance sale for the day. I never get there early enough for clearance specials. I picked up two grams of hybrid crumble for $35 each. They also had mini buds in stock. These are the same marijuana buds as regular flower, but the buds are smaller. They still pack a whopping 22.4% THC. I picked up 4 jars of minis, the limit for the day. From now on, I’m going to get up early so I can do my shopping before anyone else. My dad always told me that the early bird gets the worm. In this case, the early bird gets the great weed! I scored a lot of cool smoke and I saved about $40 on the whole order.
