THC is a chemical the same as any other. No one chemical reacts exactly the same in all physiologies.

Well that should rule out the smoke aspect of it.
Sure every one's different but as a generality it is accepted that when someone, for instance, drinks a few glasses of alcohol, they have a fairly common response to it. Not exactly the same, but then not totally different either. People get drunk as they consume alcohol. So it's no different with pot.
Usually it's smoked but as more research means better ideas on how to use it as well as what it does. Vaporizer is a strong tool for using that removes the whole smoking aspect of ingesting pot. But smoking is a very sociable thing. You can't beat a joint for passing around with a few friends some summer evening out on the deck, right. There are more and more recipes using pot and once someone is beyond the buying from another friend stage, it can be grown very much like an herb in the garden and rendered into butter to be added to cooking, or made into food and frozen to be eaten in small portions when wanted. But more importantly you can find the strain that works best for your needs and grow just that for yourself and know the portions and the effect they have on your system.
Like any mind altering substance, it's not for everyone. Some people shouldn't drink because they just don't function well under the influence. But that isn't everyone. Most people if they just have a little once in a while when it's appropriate, make most things go a little better.
He has a degenerative spine condition that currently causes him blinding pain. In a few years it will leave him paralized. He has prescription marijuanna pills. They do nothing for him. And yes he is looking for the high. It's the high that removes the awareness and/or the inability to think about anything else but the pain. It also help with the naseau from the copious amounts of liquid morphine he needs to take in order to not be screaming in pain.
So, yes, some medicinal marijuanna users want the high. and need the high. It's the part of the thc that works for pain.

And so it great that there are some really potent strains growing. Now if we could just get the government to wake up, see this plant as a good thing instead of the sinister vice it has been demonized into by the government and those who have a vested interest in keeping this illegal. Things could be just that much better for him.
Twila, my heart goes out to whomever you are talking about that is in so much pain. You would think that for people like him the government would make it easier to get various grades of grass in order to alleviate pain and nausea, as well as making the price more reasonable.
Hey Twila i think i missed something about who you are talking about.Sort of jumped in here.
Any person even comeing close to what you describe i say go for it.
To be honest if i was that far gone i would be doing a lot more than weed.
I have seen quite a few people though that the thc pills did do the job with cancer chemo and most are dead but i know of one who is still alive.
One last point, on said subject. I know people that smoked govt. weed and got high from it although they said if you sold this on the street you prolly get beat up.I also might have sounded like people with real health issues don't deserve to get high , and that was not my intent either.
Also I just would like to say here as I stated a month ago in the 4/20 thread.
I don't think weed is the evil thing some tend to make it out to be.
I think if yer gonna get high it's a better choice than getting drunk.
But please, admit what you are doing and don't hide behind airy fairy bullcrap. I mean get real.This is not a panacea. @^#$%^@^ teaches his kids this is like good for you....grrrrrrrr.
There was this thing on global news about people useing forums like this to paint a picture of weed like it's good for you.
I don't think it is.
Soft soaping drugs is lame.
You haven't managed to pay attention to any of the posting on this topic ever have you.

It is a shame that marijuana cannot be grouped into certain needs and use - but this would involved giant drug companies getting into the act perhaps.... I don't know.
If the benefits of marijuana can be classified as to growth area, type of grass, etc. and categorized as to beneficial effects for people - thus removing the unwanted side effects, there is no reason it should not be available, especially for pain relief as most pain relief is going to have limits in the pharmaceutical world - especially habituating.
I am a novice in the world of marijuana but certainly some side effects can be harnessed in some types of weed.... while other growth areas may produce entirely new effects for people. Are there any legitimate studies being done in the field of chemistry and medicine?
Why people are kept from relief of any kind such as is described here by some is beyond me.
My nephew is coming down from a bad injury and he is prescribed marijuana for his spinal pain which unremitting - he has a device with which he does not inhale as with a cigarette.... I think it is ingested in a mist form but cannot be certain... but his doctors prescribe it and because it is for cessation of pain - the word is that rarely do drugs which help in these severe instances become addictive - there is a whole
other need involved in the brain rather than habituation.
