Cannabis 'IS safe when treating chronic pain but only if you're an experienced user' | Daily Mail Online



So how do you become an experience user,then ?   I suffer from arthritis and take cannabis now and again.I do not smoke it with tobacco but buy it in block form called 'solid' as opposed to 'bush' which is the name for buying in plant form. I buy a 9 0z bar at a time for £360 and heat a bit off it as required. I believe that like all drugs if they are taken regularly,  it loses the potency and you need more and more to create the same effect.

Cannabis for me is multi purpose. I take it for pain, when I am felling depressed and especially when I cannot be bothered cooking something to eat. Taking it brings on euphoria and 'the giggles.' I shout one liners at the TV and go into fits of laughter at my own rotten jokes. It is very difficult to be depressed and splitting your sides laughing at the same time.!! Cannabis also brings on 'the munchies' and you just gotta eat,Anything will do You just eat.!

Now to me if depressed folks and eating disorder folks were to be given cannabis instead of having their heads filled with psycho babble,most of them could be cured.

I have proved this over the years as I am prescribed Dihydrocodeine tablets (opiates) to help with pain. Many years ago I got a buzz taking two tablets three times a day. Nowadays I get no buzz whatever and my dosage is up to taking three tablets four times per day.I now eat them like smarties, whenever I feel like it,

I am hooked on them and go into withdrawal,just like heroin junkies, without them. The best description of withdrawal that I have ever seen portrayed in a movie was in the film Trainspotting, when the guy stocks up with soup and toilet paper after deciding to quit shooting up.
