    Pot doesn't lead to another drug, the person's desire for a stronger high leads them to PCP, Cocaine, etc.

    I should know. Pot didn't tell me to go and get some PCP, I told myself that.

    Read the topic. ;)

    Marijuana is used for medicinal purposes, mainly for cancer patients.

    Being a cancer patient herself, Lorn has strong views on marijuana.

    I'm sorry. I forgot about that. There's been so much talk about the bad points of marijuana around, that I forgot that it was used as a medical drug.

    It's not that pot leads directly to other drugs, it's that people who are really into it want more effect. I know a lot of people who started with pot and that are now on speed, mush and all this...

    Taken from a article I read:

    "Marijuana is one of the safest therapeutically active substances known. No one has ever died from an overdose, and it has a wide variety of therapeutic applications:

    Relief from nausea and increase of appetite;
    Reduction of intraocular ("within the eye") pressure;
    Reduction of muscle spasms;
    Relief from chronic pain.

    Marijuana is frequently beneficial in the treatment of the following conditions:

    AIDS. Marijuana can reduce the nausea, vomiting, and loss of appetite caused by the ailment itself and by various AIDS medications.

    Glaucoma. Marijuana can reduce intraocular pressure, thereby alleviating the pain and slowing -- and sometimes stopping -- the progress of the condition. (Glaucoma is the leading cause of blindness in the United States. It damages vision by increasing eye pressure over time.)

    Cancer. Marijuana can stimulate the appetite and alleviate nausea and vomiting, which are common side effects of chemotherapy treatment.

    Multiple Sclerosis. Marijuana can limit the muscle pain and spasticity caused by the disease, as well as relieving tremor and unsteadiness of gait. (Multiple sclerosis is the leading cause of neurological disability among young and middle-aged adults in the United States.)

    Epilepsy. Marijuana can prevent epileptic seizures in some patients.

    Chronic Pain. Marijuana can alleviate the chronic, often debilitating pain caused by myriad disorders and injuries.

    Each of these applications has been deemed legitimate by at least one court, legislature, and/or government agency in the United States.

    Many patients also report that marijuana is useful for treating arthritis, migraine, menstrual cramps, alcohol and opiate addiction, and depression and other debilitating mood disorders.

    Marijuana could be helpful for millions of patients in the United States. Nevertheless, other than for the seven people with special permission from the federal government, medical marijuana remains illegal!"

    :p

    My friend started with weed, promised to me she'd never do it again, did it once more, became a "once-weekly", became a "ever once in awhile", every day, and now she's onto more drugs. Opium, shrooms, acid, and a lot of things she sees. It's sad... :wth:

    I know that Marijuana is used in MINOR doses as a medicinal drug, but i thought this was about Marijuana being good when used just like a deadly drug.


    @Lorn: Hm, no one may have died due to Marijuana overdose, but it kills slowly, just as cigarette does. Only worse.

    I don't know if this'll help or anything, but I think (P#@nt0m Du(k means that it slowly deteriorates your system, yet at times you may not notice it right off hand. Just a guess... :unsure:
