Thanks for sharing that article and your opinion! Medical cannabis is something that does help a lot of people and I feel that a lot of folks, even if it is legal, are afraid of being thought of as "the stoner who can finally justify weed". I myself, don't use it. But there are a lot of folks close to me who use it for anxiety, chronic pain, and depression, and also who work in the industry (it's legal for recreational and medicinal use where I live). Mental and invisible illness is extremely tough on its sufferers and honestly, use whatever works and helps you get through. We all need some sort of medication in this world. If you can grow it at home, that's a plus! 😁
