So I had a long day today and i just want to say i appreciate those who have concern but i just barely got into the idea of using THC or CBD as a treatment. I've done research and listened to stories from people I trust A LOT and I made the decision to try it. I don't know if I'll do it again or not (cuz its stinky and made my throat hurt from coughing) but I know for a fact that I do NOT want to do anything harder than one or two hits from a joint or trying different forms of CBD/TCH mixed edibles. For me therapy and meds haven't worked efficiently so I was just testing something that is currently a method of treating OCD patients. Again, thank you for your concern and thoughts. I probably should've put a little more of this explanation in the OG post but I was getting donuts and got really excited and sort of word vomited lol

Don’t use drugs as a way to escape, that could lead to very bad outcomes.

weed actually does help some people and it’s not really a “drug” like many people think of it, that’s why it’s legal medically in many places. anxiety disorders are of the things you can get a prescription for! so if the weed helps you feel less anxious then i don’t see a problem with it

But he/she is basically using marijuana as a gateway drug which means that it could lead to another more addictive drug. I don’t think it’s a safe thing to do, especially with OCD and compulsions. But if they want to continue, go ahead, I hope hope they know the possible outcomes.

@sillybilly Marijuana is only a gateway drug if someone has an addictive personality, or trauma so you’re not wrong but the progression to harder drugs doesn’t really happen to the extent that people think

@sillybilly I don’t really agree with that I think that’s a rhetoric that’s fed to us as kids but sure

@rlr You should listen to the people who used marijuana as a way to escape but ended up addictive . Marijuana isn’t something you just smoke, enjoy it, and don’t long for it agina. Yes it could be used for some medical purposes, but it is prescribed to the user.

@sillybilly I smoked marijuana every single day for years and years and then it started giving me bad side effects so I stopped but many of my friends and family still smoke I just really don’t see a big problem with it sorry we have different opinions it’s okay

From what I and my friends have experienced you don’t actually feel the physical effects of weed the first time you smoke it, so honestly it may have been a bit of a placebo effect
