Wow. I am just amazed at all the info re MJ!! Is everybody on this site a biochemist or something???? I too have found HUGE benefits from MJ for insomnia. And truly, it doesn't take much. It's such a shame that the paranoia surrounding it's use precludes more research and open usage. When I contrast it's "horrible" side effects with the withdrawal effects of Effexor, I wonder what they are thinking! I get totally obnoxious when I drink. I get very calm and compliant when I smoke. And if alcohol exacerbates depression - and alchohol is legal - it leads me to the conclusion that those in charge of the "war on drugs" have a very low IQ.
I'm thinking about using MJ to quit drinking. I'll take the risk - if I need to grow my own plant - I will. Geez - I'm a fr*gging lawyer - representing public agencies (INCLUDING SEVERAL POLICE DEPARTMENTS) - can you imagine what would happen if I got caught? I'd have to leave my firm. But I don't care - the value outweighs the risk. When I smoke at night, it's done more than Trazadone and Rezorem combined. And it just so happens that when I really sleep at night - I am better at work! Imagine that.
Sorry for the long post - I had to vent.
