I almost feel like a normal. Is this normal?

If only they told me I could smoke weed to help my psychosis when I was 19-24…I would’ve been all over it. Now I just get too paranoid and anxious from weed for a while now the thought of smoking weed to feel better doesn’t excite me. My anti-psychotic works for me so I’ll stick to that. But back when I was younger if I was told high CBD Cannabis could help my psychosis maybe I would have smoked it and saved a few psychotic episodes…food for thought. It’s the same idea of giving flintstones vitamins to kids because they’re so delicious that it makes them want to take them. Give high CBD cannabis to young adults with schizophrenia and you never have to worry about them not taking their meds again!

I think it will be a highly (pun intended lol) used in the medical field in the near future, it’s just in its infancy right now

Yup I had the experience to try cbd oil felt like a brand new normal person. Just how long this infancy will take you’ll still have people discredit it. The VA urine tests patients for any cannabis use and if found are denied services. A lot has to go right to make things go better.

How do you know you’re getting “high CBD” cannabis, and not just getting “high”?

Also - this is the real deal, and you can actually trust that it contains CBD (its a company that must meet federal testing - not some random dude selling pot on the street who says it does)

How do I know? Well I have a script and I’m certain they are giving me the right strain cause I don’t even get “high”
God bless canada… lucky girl…
I do not like that cannabis is promoted to be a viable med for treating schizophrenia. I have not personally ever even tried marijuana so I do not know much about how it affects the human brain. I believe in antipsychotic meds and these meds have seemed to work well with me. Well, I am against all illegal drugs, I have never even tried any.
The medical establishment has been forced into offering it and is gearing up for a fight as a result.
Pixel.
I would probably have to go to Oakland, Berkeley, SF, or LA to get a good CBD strain in California. Colorado has some good ones and Israel has a good one too. Man I used to know a lot about this but I forgot. I just searched “High CBD Straings” and it seems the best one is Charlotte’s Web with 20% CBD and .5 % THC.
Maybe I can go here for school lol:
Illegal does not mean immoral. Being against something simply because it is illegal is not a good thing… people should think independently. Piaget had something to say about simply accepting something as bad on the basis of rules from authorities…

Wow. ACDC seems to be the best CBD strain I can get in California. They have it in Los Angeles. It’s THC: CBD ratio is 1: 20. I used to have a medical marijuana card. Maybe it’s time to get another one.
Interesting - thanks for sharing. I did not know any places gave prescriptions for high CBD cannabis for schizophrenia. How did you get it? Your psychiatrist gave you the prescription? What is the strain of cannabis called? Who produces it (company)?
I think charlottes web is about the same but I love acdc so maybe the wat to go
Maybe she got mmj for anxiety or something else (easy to get a prescription in Canada) and her dispensary sells it for cancer or epilepsy. They don’t require your symptoms when selling you different pot strains. As far as I know Florida gives charlottes web for epilepsy and cancer but no other medical marijuana. So she could be getting weed for PTSD or something else but just chooses a low thc high CBD strain
@kellie is it like the high from weed where you need to smoke every 2-4 hours to maintain the effects or are the benefits longer lasting? Also do you build a tolerance like you do for thc? And last but not least, if you smoke like 3 grams in one sitting, since you’re not getting high, is it bothersome if you smoke too much. I guess I’m asking when do you know when to stop and what are the symptoms of smoking too much like?

I smoke about 2-3 grams throughout the day and evening. It just depends how I’m feeling that day. I haven’t noticed a tolerance build up but I have only been smoking it for 2 months, we shall see if I need more in the coming months
