Hi All, I just want to ask if anyone ever tried using medical cannabis as an alternative meds? I have read many articles about medical marijuana and how it can help you in terms of chronic pain, bone injuries, eating disorder/anorexia, anxiety disorders and panic attacks, inflammation,depression, even cancer and a lot more. Like this article about a marijuana strain from ilovegrowingmarijuana.com/sour-lemon-og/ . Cbd and thc are also new to me and I don't even smoke. If this is true I cant find any solid conclusive evidence that speaks to its efficacy. Any personal experience or testimonial would be highly appreciated. Thanks

It can also trigger anxiety, paranoia etc. So be cautious.

'I just want to ask if anyone ever tried using medical cannabis as an alternative meds?'

Like Peter, I would advise caution.
Just out of interest, why did you decide to pose the question on a mindfulness forum?
All best,
Jon

You are more than welcome to mention mantra here. It is a form of mindfulness meditation in my book! Whatever works for the individual is what I believe. See my topic in the long time meditators section.

Where can I find the topic on mantras?

I've not been able to locate any actual thread about mantras, only occasional mentions.
Maybe Gareth's memory will pull something up...
Happy New Year,
Jon
