    Aspergers and Marijuana

    THC is bad for people with Asperger's or any anxiety issue, especially concentrates. You want CBD for Asperger's or other anxiety / neurological / psychological condition.

    It absolutely can with strains that are high in THC, which increases anxiety. CBD, which does not actually get you high, has the opposite effect and strains high in CBD are what people with Asperger's (and PTSD and depression) are using with great effect.

    "Asthma and Depression are two different things". Really? As if that invalidates the comparison. They are both currently treated with pharmaceuticals that have dangerous side effects. "Illicit drugs are illicit for a reason". Yup. And in the case of cannabis, for several reasons. Because...

    You are incorrect. Cannabis is a neuroprotectant and actually allows neuropathways to communicate. It does not "mask" the problem. It literally FIXES the misfiring neurons. This is why it is also used to combat seizure disorders and a myriad of other problems. If you do not need it, awesome. But...

    Even when you wrote this, the evidence was already in and very conclusive. Your statements are false. It would be no more accurate to say that if you take insulin all the time, there is something wrong with your personality. CBD is a neuroprotectant that allows neuropathways to properly...

    Whoa there, because you are wrong and spreading LONG disproven lies. It has been proven NOT to lower IQ in the least. No, it does not lead to psychosis. There has been a marked increase in cannabis users per capita in the last 40 years, and no corresponding increase in psychotic individuals...

    You are completely wrong, utterly uninformed, and spreading false and irresponsible information. "You are a fool if you think you can smoke something like Marijuana and it will have no lasting impact on your life." Well, there I guess I have to agree. Those who have used a strain low in THC...

    You are completely misrepresenting cannabis.

    Aspergers and Marijuana

    You are correct! They have amped the THC levels in "street weed" to intensify the "high". Only problem is, CBD is the calming effect, THC actually increases anxiety and paranoia! That is why those who use it for depression, PTSD, anxiety, Asperger's, etc.. need to find a strain that is low in...

    True! Even the most skeptical researches can only say they believe it SHOULD cause cancer, but so far no proof. If anyone is concerned about that, they should vaporize, or use a CBD oil **( The "legal in 50 states" CBD oil is useless, derived from hemp seed and absent neuroprotectant effect).

    Edibles are not very good for us Aspies. Edibles work in a different way, and the THC involved is unusually maximized. It is NOT THC that works for us, just the exact opposite. THC increases anxiety and paranoia. The kid who jumped out a window in Colorado, for example. He used an edible, it was...

    Likely you had a strain high in THC and low in CBD judging from your reaction. THC actually increases anxiety, including social anxiety. ALL street weed is high in THC, with no concern for CBD. CBD is what can stop seizures, treat depression, turn PTSD around, and mitigate Asperger's. Because...

    First, there is zero legitimate concern for lung cancer. But if you are concerned, vaporizing eliminates that risk, and it can be used as a concentrated oil. Second, you don't have to be "stoned". Because it isn't THC that works for neurological conditions. It is CBD, cannabidiol. And you can...

    Aspergers and Marijuana

    You are wrong on just about every level. Not one case of cancer ever attributed to cannabis. Not ONE in the history of mankind. And the anti-depressant effect is NOT a side effect (not caring). Cannabidiol is a proven neuroprotectant, it fixes neuropathways that are misfiring. It is responsible...

    If the doctors told you that pot is worse for your lungs than cigarettes, your doctor is simply lying. If he smokes cigarettes, cigarette cause lung cancer, cannabis does NOT! Even the most skeptical of researches have concluded it SHOULD cause cancer, but it does NOT. Not one single case linked...
