    I have never been prescribed opioids, but anyone ever been prescribed a benzodiazepine and not told about the horrific effects of long term use? ( more than 2 to 4 weeks)?

    Works for me dammit just expensive as hell. Idk what kind of opioids ppl taking was on them for years on and off if I didnt have them I just didn’t wasn’t bugging out running the streets looking for them or going to 1000 drs to get them. Never got sick when I stopped. And there was no high good sleep but no high to be tripping about.

    Tch is why im alive and I fully believe that. Being bipolar, and dealing with high anxiety, insomnia, and constant muscle tensing, along with PTSD, and just basic mental trauma from being birthed by a 12 year old and produced by a very sick old man, I’ve had reason after reason to just give up and end it all. When you feel as bad as I do even on a good day you’d understand. I’ve been on pills since I was a child. They never worked, I never felt better, I felt the same and physically sick on top of it going from this dose to that dose this med to that med, until I started smoking back when cali was the only legal state, but it works immediately, my muscles tense so bad it’s hard to even pee sometimes, not when I have that. My stomach is in constant pain from gastroenteritis and diverticulitis and crohn’s disease, but not when I have that, it’s saved my life because it’s the only thing that makes me feel like I should be feeling from the start. I didn’t ask for the problems I have, I didn’t do anything to create them, but why can’t I fix them when I know what works. At the same I feel like a criminal for it and I don’t think I should. I have a hard time keeping a job without some medical assistance, but the pills had me so sick I was constantly calling out anyway, the insomnia pills put me out for 18 hours at a time, then I’d have to lie back down a couple hours later I never felt awake I just felt drugged, pot doesn’t do that. It legit makes me cry because I feel like the ones in charge just want me to be sick.

    But why not take out the buzz effect of it like they do in Germany.



  22. TEAMJESUS 70 on August 29, 2019 at 12:55 am

    Oh, the Government has studied it plenty. They Know. They have several patents on Cannabis. One is actually labeled as a Brain Protective.



  23. Matt M on August 29, 2019 at 12:55 am

    The politicians work for the tax payers, who are they to tell us what we cannot have when the majority of the public wants it legalized and rescheduled, lets just let every state vote on it and let the majority decide instead of it all being in the hands of a bunch of old rich drunk men



  24. Lloyd Edmonds on August 29, 2019 at 12:59 am

  31. Andrew Brent on August 29, 2019 at 1:15 am

    Creeps me out whenever I hear cannabis talked about as a drug in the same way that pharmaceuticals are. But that is how most mainstream MD’s look at health and medicine. It’s all reductionism. And they don’t believe anything until there are numerous scientific studies and trials that "prove" it works. These are the same medical professionals who have been prescribing FDA-approved drugs that over the decades have killed, injured, and made sick hundreds of thousands of people.



  32. suzanne schulz on August 29, 2019 at 1:16 am

    But can you function if you use this? And drive too



  33. John Anderson on August 29, 2019 at 1:18 am

    nothing wrong with recreational use either.

    Weed is bad don’t do it



  36. Drago Plays on August 29, 2019 at 1:19 am

    Forgot to mention those pharma bribes to criminalize and make skewed studies so you guys can push opioids.



  37. Cann Abinoid on August 29, 2019 at 1:20 am

    Gupta, who also works for CNN, talking about how great cannabis is, is a huge red flag for me. Whats really going on ? I noticed here he talks about CBD. I suspect he’s trying to make CBD the main healing cannabinoid when in fact its THC. Remember, do the opposite of what CNN tells you to do.



  38. David Huston on August 29, 2019 at 1:20 am

    Thanks Doctor! VICE news ran an eppisode on detoxing patients of opiods.



  39. Paul Drake on August 29, 2019 at 1:24 am

    I have a seizure problem that 3 neurologists couldn’t figure out and could give me no help. My family doctor let me have medical pot because I was at the point where I wouldn’t be able to continue….quality of life was low. The pot gave me instant relief. I wouldn’t still be here without it.



  40. Jr C on August 29, 2019 at 1:25 am

    Time to make MORE money off of something that was making them BILLIONS of Dollars by incarcerating black men. Now we’re going to Label it .."Medical"…so we can KEEP making BILLIONS of dollars from it. When they were passing out "opioids" they were TOTALLY against Marijuana, and claimed that it had NO Medicinal use and a "gateway" drug. LMAO! But now that they’ve done "SO MUCH RESEARCH" it’s ALL GOOD! A bunch of BULLSHIT! at the highest level!

    Who here after whiplash?



  42. Phanes Erichthoneus on August 29, 2019 at 1:28 am

    There’s no difference between medical marijuana and "recreational" marijuana. The only reason people distinguish between the two is because of how and/or why it’s used. Sure, marijuana makes sick people feel better. But it also makes healthy people feel better. And what’s wrong with using cannabis as a preventative measure so you reduce the chance of coming down with the ailments that sick people are taking cannabis for? It’s my view that cannabis should be on the food pyramid, not locked up in a pharmacy. Knowing this makes waiting on all the naysayers, fence-sitters and researchers to catch up with what actual pot-users already know from personal experience. And unfortunately, that personal experience and testimony has always been rejected because science doesn’t accept that as evidence. πŸ™
