|  Dave, 28, is an agent in a high-pressure talent agency. Dave was diagnosed with Clinical Anxiety. Dave is a regular user of medical marijuana. After an unsuccessful bout with anti-depressants, Dave found that medical marijuana helps with panic attacks, anxiety, heart palpitations, and stress. Now Dave comes to work rested and relaxed, and his symptoms are under control. Dave never thought he was the type of person who would use marijuana as medicine, until he did – and realized that marijuana works for him. ..Full story..A Typical Stoner – Dave  This booklet shows how and why those safe harbor guidelines can and should be expanded by localities, doctors, and by the legislature. You can help advance this process. Whether a patient, physician, policy maker, prosecutor, police officer, or concerned citizen, please take a stand for the principles of reason, compassion and the rule of law. – ..Full story..Cannabis Yields and Dosage  The vast majority of the chronically ill don’t know that cannabis is real medicine and that this God given plant could give them a better quality of life. That’s where we, the cannabis patients, come in. Its so simple that most activists can’t fathom it. All we have to do is tell the truth. Our own, personal story. That’s all. The world wants to hear it. They know that the drug companies are killing us. What they don’t know is that cannabis could very well save their lives, or at least, make them more tolerable. .. ..Full story..A Cannabis Patient  I have asked representatives from the pharmaceutical companies why they don’t research Cannabis for the treatment of Glaucoma. The answer was always the same. “The Federal Government will not allow that. We would like to. We know it has benefits. We can’t.” .. ..Full story..Cannabis and Glaucoma  Unpleasant memories, we call that Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Well it turns out it’s that thermostat essentially of remembering and forgetting that is very much regulated by our endocannabinoid activity (cannabis from within). So it turns out that there are natural consequences to being able to forget the past, so to speak. And it has to do with our ability to relearn something new. .. ..Full story..Steady flow and the hot topic  We hypothesized that there would be a positive association between marijuana use and lung cancer, and that the association would be more positive with heavier use,” he said. “What we found instead was no association at all, and even a suggestion of some protective effect. .. ..Full story..Killer Herb  There is a growing number of clinical studies that indicate that cannabis or single cannabinoids may have medicinal value for certain diseases and under certain conditions. In the period from 1975 to current, at least 110 controlled clinical studies have been published, assessing well over 6100 patients suffering from a wide range of illnesses. Also the mechanisms of action are becoming increasingly clear since the discovery of the endocannabinoid system and its physiological functions. In 2006 ..Full story..Cannabinoid Medicines  In 1990, the cannabinoid receptor was first discovered in the human brain and by 1992 the entire endocannabinoid system had been uncovered. With this, science glimpsed the potential medicinal benefits of marijuana for the first time. Since then these potential medicinal uses have been well documented. According to Harm Reduction Journal’s report titled “Harm Reduction – The Cannabis Paradox”, cannabinoids “regulate intercellular communication, especially in the immune and nervous systems,” as well as “modulate and coordinate tissues, organ and body systems (including cardiovascular, digestive, endocrine, excretory, immune… and respiratory systems).” ..Full story..Cannabis Treatment  I ask you to take into consideration the huge benefits to health care that medical cannabis can provide. I also ask that consideration be given to the prohibition which imposes a huge burden on our country. It has been clearly shown in other countries that the removal of prohibition does not lead to an increase in drug use. Alcohol and tobacco are serious drugs and are controlled by regulation; this type of regulation should be applied to all drugs thus providing better control and revenue instead of a huge expense. The police would be free to do a job that would be more beneficial to society. ..Full story..A Message to Canberra  “We know Kevin Rudd is looking for evidence based policies and surely it’s time to introduce cannabis regulations, quality controls and a tax system for Australia’s more than 2 million cannabis users. It’s a realistic dream and we are closer than ever to a common-sense end to cannabis prohibition.” ..Full story..BIG JOINT SESSION FOR OBAMA AND RUDD | |
