Arizona and California voters approved medical marijuana laws in 1996.
Alaska, Oregon and Washington voters approved laws in 1998.
Maine voters approved their medical marijuana initiative in 1999.
Colorado and Nevada voters approved medical marijuana laws in 2000.
Hawaii voters approved their medical marijuana laws in 2000.
District of Columbia voters approved an initiative in 1998 with 69 percent of the vote, but Congress overrode the law.
Marijuana is one of the most beneficial and therapeutically active substances known to man. Due to the prohibition of marijuana however; it’s use as a medicine is restricted. However, recent Canadian government legislation have made it more available to patients. Patients are now able to apply for personal possession and even a limited cultivation license.
Few herbs offer a wide variety of therapeutic applications like these:
· Relief of muscle spasms
· Relief of chronic pain
· Reduction in interlobular pressure inside the eye
· Suppression of nausea
· Weight loss – increase and restore metabolism
Marijuana can treat these conditions:
· AIDS - Marijuana can reduce the nausea, loss of appetite, vomiting from the condition itself and the medications as well.
· Glaucoma - Marijuana relieves the internal eye pressure of glaucoma, and therefore relieving the pain and slowing or even stopping the condition.
· Cancer- Many side effects of the medication to stop cancer can be relieve with Marijuana, some studies suggest that Marijuana tends to slow down the progress of some types of cancer.
· Multiple Sclerosis - Muscle pain, spasticity, tremors and unsteadiness are some of the effects caused by the disease that can be relieved by Marijuana.
· Epilepsy - in some patients, epileptic seizures can be prevented with Marijuana use.
· Chronic pain - Marijuana helps to alleviate the pain caused from many types of injuries and disorders.
· Anxiety, Depression or Obsession - Even though mild anxiety is a common side effect in some users, cannabis can elevate your mood and expand the mind
"With the expansiveness that occurs with marijuana, the subject may begin to notice infinite possibilities to raise the quality of his/her life that would otherwise have remained hidden from normal, defensive consciousness. And feelings of health and happiness naturally lead to hope, which of itself can be curative."- Joan Bello
Many obsessions or quick fixes to psychological problems can be eleviated by Marijuana as well. Many people eat because they're depressed. If the depression is treated, the obsession to eat should be gone as well.
Any of these phycological conditions can be treated by a psychiatrist; marijuana should be an alternative therapy, used in conjunction with psychiatric therapy.
· Physical Addictions- There have been testimonies from opiate users that report an easing of addiction cravings. Some cannabinoids in cannabis are believed to have similar effects as ibogaine, a medication used to treat heroin addiction.
The cannabinoids in Marijuana mimic the healing effects of a naturally occurring chemical in the brain called Anandimide. However, this naturally occurring cannabinoid also produces the negative effects that one would experience from high concentrations of cannabinoids in marijuana.
Medical marijuana can also benefit you psychologically and spiritually.
Marijuana can be used to enhance personal Spirituality. The herb tends to reveal your true self. It uncovers inner confusion and reveals your true direction - if you let it. Marijuana offers an effect that is both energizing and relaxing at the same time. This balanced effect will help some to think more clearly and more efficiently afterwards.
"Marijuana will not tolerate repression. Tranquillizers and depressants relax the body and release tension, but the state of mind associated with these drugs is "unconsciousness" whereby we escape rather than resolve our dilemmas. Alcoholism is an extreme need of both the body and personality sometimes to release the nervousness that has accumulated and continues to build up to an unbearable degree. It serves the same function for the collective personality for the society, as well A culture in which alcohol and tranquillizers are the prevalent form of release prefers not to witness internal confusion and actually choose to act without conscious participation, maintaining a semi-numb condition." - Joan Bello
"Marijuana can act as the loosening agent, so that whatever has been banned from consciousness may come cascading forth. To uncover our deceptions without our usual rationalizations can be unpleasant, an experience that has turned many psychologically fragile individuals away from marijuana despite its therapeutic catharsis."- Joan Bello

long term use has proven to have bad side effects in some people as they get older, such as sporadic mmod swings, peeps often become depressed from nothing etc. However the pros of smokin herb (in my opinion) heavily outweigh the cons.

Hey alll. Ive been using medication in california since '96 when it became available( and even before then too). I have found when smoking, the onslaught of negative affects definately does kick in(mood swings, depresion, insomnia, and yes paranoia). Then I was intoduced to eating it all the negative effects have since disapeared! Now every person allthough similar are definatly different. It's my feeling that mary j. wasn't meant for smoking in the first place. But like I stated earlier everyone is different. To put it into perspective what has to be asked of yourself is simple; " would I put an asprin in my pipe and smoke it, then why am I doing it with my medical marijuana?" Food for thought people, food for thought.

terpenophenolic
No i wouldn't put an asprin in my pipe and I also would not put one in my body or any other pharmaceutical poisons, I ONLY use medicine that comes from my plants.Asprin and Tylenol along with many other pharmaceuticals kill people and destoy peoples health every day(now that's food for thought) they are not medicine in my opinion.
But like you said we're all different and have different thoughts.PEACE..Also when you smoke marijuana you inhale terpenoids, which produce anti-inflammatory effects in the respritory tract.Limonene is a tepanoid that is present in cannabis smoke that is undergoing tests for treament of different forms of cancers.Maby we were not ment to smoke cannabis but there are acctually alot of good things that sre present in cannabis smoke...I love inhaling it too...
