The nurse was confidently telling me that medical cannabis is a natural product
I was talking to a nurse not too long ago and I divulged that I used CBD cream for my arthritis pain. She smiled and then looked up. She told me she could not understand the way the minds of politicians functioned, and cannabis is a product of nature, and has less side effects than any guy made drug they have in this world, including aspirin. All kinds of people had depression, arthritis, and other medical conditions that can be helped with the use of medical cannabis, but there is too much of a stigma placed on marijuana use. Some of that stigma is because nurses are not confident in telling patients about medical marijuana. They won’t get the kickbacks that nurses get from selling pharmaceutical drugs. They can’t make nearly as much money when people are medicating with natural substances. She told me she thought most addictions were from people who had no other recourse than to self medicate because they could not cover the cost for big pharma products. As luxurious as medical marijuana was, it was still less costly and much safer to use, than if you used chemical filled pharmaceutical drugs. I smiled as I listened to this person talk, and then she apologized. She pretty much said she didn’t know my actual take on it, but since I used CBD and it seemed to help considerably, she was proud of me. After explaining I was hesitant to tell anyone about my marijuana use, she told me I shouldn’t be.. It was all basically a part of the holistic health movement, and she was behind it all the way. I am no longer going to hesitate when telling people I use medical marijuana for my condition.
