. I live with a very painful medical condition and still get treated like a drug addict/criminal by family members for using medical marijuana on a daily basis instead of painpills. Its a frustrating situation i had to move close to 20 hours away from where ive lived most of my life for my personal safety after several run ins and close calls with law enforcement. Its as if they would rather have me depressed and sick on pain pills than use marijuana. Me and my mom havnt talked in close to 6 months because of all this. It hurts alot but im just trying to live my life and be happy and deal with the physical pain im in the best i can.
I do not understand how family can be unsupportive of this.
I have helped a lot of people get information about medical marijuana. Today I am talking with a family friend who has terrible arthritis, and he does not like the prescription pain pills because it makes him feel like a non-human zombie.
I am going to help him get medical marijuana. At the request of my elderly parents. My family are not assholes, they just want us all to be happy and safe.
Why do so many people fear what they don't understand? Why don't they just try a little harder to understand it?
I'm glad you are finding relief with medical marijuana. I hope your family comes around. And if they don;t, your friends are the family you CHOOSE.
I'll be your friend. If you ever need to chat, PM me!
