Post 2: My journey into medical marijuana

After taking the first week away from marijuana, I must say my mind was blown! If I had never felt my age before that moment, I most definitely felt it then. Things ached that I never felt ache before. I felt stiffer. I thought hey, maybe it’s mental. Maybe I’ve just been sleeping wrong. Rolling joints and or packing bowls daily becomes a habit so maybe I just needed something to fill that time and void. I had to give it more time. Make some changes.

Nearly 3 weeks in, i caved. I could feel almost every fall, bump and bruise that I ever encountered in the last 5 years of life. Probably a slight exaggeration but I felt it none the less. I had been partaking for about 20 years at this point. I didn’t want to just dive back in. I wanted to fight the green monster. It’s bad for me right?

So I began doing research as to find out exactly what benefits there are to using marijuana as medication as opposed to man made pills.

I did not know that there were so many healing agents for different things. While a pill or 2 a day on regimen may take away the ailments, so does this beautiful plant that grows from our soil. And thru proper nurture and care can grow into something naturally that can ease some aches and pains. That is a conversation that should be had.
