NEW YORKNoting the numerous therapeutic benefits of cannabis, a new study published Tuesday by researchers at Mount Sinai Hospital found that marijuana ranks among the foremost treatments for persistent existence.
Many of our patients who incorporated marijuana into their daily routine experienced tremendous relief from years or even decades of chronic existence, said lead researcher Dr. Samantha Park, adding that marijuana consumed as an edible or smoked in flower form had reduced the strain associated with long-term existing across all demographics of participants.
Without marijuana, the continual burdens of everyday being can often be unbearable. In fact, many wondered if chronic existence could even be treated. Thankfully, were finding that cannabis can actually provide temporary relief far surpassing even our best earlier cures such as suicide or cocaine.
The report added that marijuana also appeared to treat related conditions such as clinical consciousness and acute reality.

(21,859 posts)that marijuana sales and the tax revenues they bring to those states who have legalized 'M' sales either medically or for one's personal use, have boosted their bottom line in tax revenues, thus preventing cut back in state services and/or increasing tax revenues in other ways.
And most importantly, IMHO, the so called dire predictions of a population overdosed on 'M" in those states where 'M' is legalized hasn't materialized to near what some predictions had predicted.
Some jurisdictions are also minimizing the criminal statues for having a small amount of 'M' too. Perhaps one day, the federal and state restrictions on 'M" will be revamped/retooled to reflect current society norms, and allow scarce policing dollars to be used in more critical areas of law enforcement.

(3,639 posts)Cannabis is medicine for existential angst, or as known in Sanskrit, "samsara".
Samsara is the sum total of all that makes us sorry; it is the persistent discomfort experienced when one feels small and set upon by the seemingly larger forces of all (in the world) that we see as separate and opposed to ourselves.
The power of cannabis to bring peace to the hearts-mind has been known worldwide for millennia.

(1,666 posts)You smoke enough weed, and youll develop a tolerance for it allowing you to be basically high all day long with very few people being able to spot it. All they see is someone pretty easy-going. That is low stress existence right there!
It is such a non issue, anesthesiologists dont particularly care if youve been smoking it. Maybe MAGA should try it some time.
